5115-The Daughter/Father Podcast

Welcome to episode 23 of 5115, our daughter father podcast. This is a short one (comparatively) but we packed a lot in.  Starting with a major milestone: Cass graduated high school people!

Although Lee forgot to turn his mic on for the fir...

With "California Gurls", "Teenage Dream", "Firework", "E.T.", and "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)", it’s the second album in history to have five number-one singles (after Michael Jackson's 1987 album Bad) to top the US Billboard Hot 100.

You get home and throw it on and it’s. . .not good.  Something has changed, and with each new release, they never recapture the magic.  Time to pack it in?  That’s what we discuss, and we lay out bands that we think...

Send us a text Based off a conversation around one of Lee’s favorite bands, R.E.M., they were one of the biggest bands in the world in the early 90s-fast forward to today and it seems they’ve all but been erased.   Their first 5 albums are masterpieces (IOO), yet current indie bands rarely name them as influences, unlike The Replacements, The Smiths, or The Cure, to name a few of their contemporar...

Send us a text Today’s main topic, courtesy of Cass: In the early 90’s, a whole mess of hair metal bands were riding high coming out of the 80’s.  And then Nevermind was released.   We get into the reaction of some of those hair metal bands who were indignant, sad, and just sort of confused about the whole thing. But first: ruminations on:- -P ork chops (Porkchops!) -Dogs have different colored na...
