Blind Bargains Extra 176: Electrolytic Hipster Lunch Basket


Hi, how was your summer? See any good movies? TV? Read any books? So, yeah its been a while since our last episode. This little thing we try to avoid called real life got in the way. And we are really really sorry that happened. We are happy to be back on track with our little podcast and we are in no way recycling show notes from Episode Number 9, Number 9, number .. er um 9 a lot. The RockStar and Ranger are back with a new victim, seems HR won't let us call them that anymore, 3rd Chair and we think he crushed it his first time out. We meant the actual chair, but he was pretty good on the show too. Plus, we welcomed Popinjay to the format in style with a bunch of food we didn't have to eat, there is some talk about music during "In The Nexus" and a new homework assignment for "Between The Covers". Patrick and Spheres have a few surprises in store as well for this Extra end of the line episode.

In The Nexus: Misunderstood Lyrics, Meanings And Urban Legends

We take a page from our first episode and revisit how people get music wrong when it comes to what the artist intended. That is, if they made their intent clear afterall. One could make the case that Phill Collins has been leaving clues in his songs about his mindset all along.
