Episode 17 - 1980 Part 1

aaaand WE'RE BACK!! Marty and Kris are back in the house to
unfurl 1980 and break down the good, the bad, and the ugly. We
talk "moanin cat blues" (0:05) Marty talks tectonic plates
shifting (4:34) and body shames Vince Neil (11:14). We then have
a conversation about the synthesizer and how it influenced the
decade and the genres and bands it created (13:00). To cap it
off, We get down to Kris' pick, Chrissie Hynde and the Pretenders
raucous and gritty debut, Pretenders (43:00).
