’87 And Cry

“In other words, Fame” In this episode, Travis and Thomas discuss the fame machine and a place where everybody knows your name.

Concert report! In this special bonus episode, Travis and Thomas discuss a night of Celebrating David Bowie (a.k.a. A David Bowie Celebration)!

“Destruction for the sake of destruction…” Today West Anthony joins us to discuss the Bush administration, Trump, and our song today: “Fall Dog Bombs The Moon!” Have a listen to West’s film music podcast Musical Notation (@notationpod) and follow him on Twitter @drwestanthony!

“This is a fecund track.” We talk eyebrows, a guitar shaped like oneself, and Six Degrees of Dave Grohl. Plus, Thomas forgets Richard Hatch’s name (and his role on the original Battlestar Galactica). Did you miss us? Don’t worry, “Everything’s Alright!”

“Relentlessly cheery…” David Bowie never waves bye-bye, because “Everyone Says ‘Hi!’”

“Duck Tales is the kid-friendly version of Indecent Proposal” David Bowie schools us on class warfare, trickle-down economics, and irresponsible child-rearing. Eighty-six that smile, you; we’ll give you something to “’87 and Cry” about!

“Needles everywhere!” Plenty of tactful cactus innuendo as we discuss David Bowie’s “Eight Line Poem.”

“After you get your hands on duck weed, everything makes you quack up.” What do gorilla drummers, Northeastern kids, and flat adverbs have in common? They’re all utterly unrelated to David Bowie’s “The Drowned Girl!”

“Kids love Deliverance.” Why does David Bowie looks so disappointed on this album cover? Plus Jagger stag films, and more post-apocalyptic stuff! Keep your weekend open, because we’re going to the “Drive-In Saturday!”

“The precursor to the running man.” Boy bands entrancing you with ridiculous dance moves? Can’t help getting force-fed by a post-apocalyptic raven militia? Wake up! You’re one of “The Dreamers!”
