We do a list of songs that are sung really fast. Why? Because it's fun to hear people try to sing fast, and impressive when they pull it off.

We talk about the untimely passing of Taylor Hawkins and how devastating it is to lose a best friend suddenly. We also did a list of the best songs about war! Not because that's relevant or anything these days.

How Rod is recovering from Omicron. Why Jonathan "noped" out of Spider Man. Noping out is the best. Jonathan has found peace and joy by doing something weird in the kitchen...and nobody knows the trouble I’ve seen is a REAL song guys.

Why George Carlin didn’t just like being Mr Conductor…why he NEEDED to be Mr Conductor Who invented the fork and WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG?! The conspiracy about the titanic The origins of the word nostalgia We’re getting better at detecting meteors Will Ferrell/Adam McKay/JCR Why we say Willy Nilly Nirvana getting kicked out of their own record release Nasa intern that stole moon rocks

For Jonathan's 40th birthday we went back to 1981 to see what music and the world was like the week he was born! Old School Piracy Decline of the 45 and the jukebox operator Labels discussing music videos Banning headphones in public in Chicago

Edgar Allen Poe is one of the greatest writers in history, but do you know how he died? He was “cooped” what is that?

Roughly halfway between Halley’s comets times...what happened in 1910 when it flew overhead? Will it happen again? Facts about Moose Rods from God?

Listen to this show because it could save your life! Back in the 90s a plane crashed into the mountains and when they started examining it they couldn’t figure out what happened. There were no mechanical defaults, no pilot error. The plane just seemed to crash. What really happened is one of the most tragic parenting stories you’ll ever hear. Remember Gotye? Do you know why he didn’t have another hit? You might not like this song, but there’s no denying it was a huge hit. What he did instead of making a hit is actually really incredible. We think of movies as a fairly recent invention. Something that happened around the turn of the last century. But movies have actually been around since the stone age.

What was Arnold Schwazeneggers biggest paycheck from a movie? Someone tried to invent a flying bicycle? The origin of OK The CIA is very VERY bad at their jobs Why do we have DST?
