Don't Say Maybe: The True Story of Wheatus' 'Teenage Dirtbag'

Nostalgia is one hell of a drug - and music is the best carrier
of that magic elixir directly into our brains. 


While pretty much any song can be propped up as a totem of days
past - sometimes songs feel specifically engineered to bring us
back to a place and time.


While many songs that we’ve covered over the course of this
podcast distill the feelings high school awkwardness and teenage
angst; (I’m looking at you, Simple Plan and Jimmy Eat World)
there’s no song that declares itself as loudly and proudly as a
nostalgic teenage anthem like the certified grandaddy of them all
- Wheatus’ anthemic ode to lovable Losers everywhere - 2000’s
Teenage Dirtbag.
