  • “Ex’s & Oh’s” by Elle King (f/ Robert Bacon)

    “Ex’s & Oh’s” by Elle King (f/ Robert Bacon)
    May 13 2026
    In the midst of the late 2015 charts that featured the likes of Justin Bieber, The Weeknd, Adele, and Drake, you’ll find Elle King, the raspy-voiced singer-songwriter whose sound was a cross between country and rock. Her Top 10 hit “Ex’s & Oh’s” was a critically acclaimed track that describes Elle’s past relationships with needy men and how they tend to come back to haunt her. The music video flipped gender roles and satirized the objectification of women by featuring a whole host of scantily-clad men, and Elle seemed to be a strong feminist voice that would be in our lives for a long time. She even had a crossover appeal that allowed her to share the stage with anyone from Modest Mouse to Ed Sheeran. Has enough time even passed for us to be able to officially call Elle King a one hit wonder, or should we all be yelling “you can do it!” while she works on new material? Today, we’re joined by podcaster and YouTuber Robert Bacon to dive into her career and see if we should be “makin’ copies” of her albums for each other.

  • “Move Your Feet” by Junior Senior

    “Move Your Feet” by Junior Senior
    May 6 2026
    In 2003, the Danish pop duo Junior Senior took the world by storm with their irresistible dance song “Move Your Feet.” Accompanied by a perfect animated music video, Jesper and Jeppe’s introduction to the ears of millions seemed to position them for an enormous career. They were collaborating with everyone from The B-52s to the Looney Tunes, and raising the spirits of anyone who stumbled across their music. By 2008, however, they called it quits, never to reunite EVEN after the song took on a life of its own in countless movies and TV shows over the course of the past decade. If Junior Senior wouldn’t have broken up, would we all be moving our feet and feeling a little more united right now? Tune in to find out.

  • “Mercy” by Duffy

    “Mercy” by Duffy
    Apr 29 2026
    In 2008, Welsh singer-songwriter Duffy looked ready to take over the world of music. Her Motown-inspired single “Mercy” was a huge hit all over the globe (with the notable exception of the United States.) Despite its moderate chart success in the US, the song was featured in movies, TV shows, and it even earned her a Grammy. Duffy’s momentum continued into her second album, and just when she seemed poised to NEVER be discussed on a podcast about one hit wonders, her career suddenly hit the brakes. Years later, she shared the harrowing story behind the reason for this, and a forthcoming documentary will shed even more light on her tragic story. Though we’ll undoubtedly learn so much more about Duffy once it’s released, we’re diving into her life, times, and soulful music this week on the show.

  • “How Do You Talk to an Angel” by The Heights (f/ Jim Logrando and Trisha Novy)

    “How Do You Talk to an Angel” by The Heights (f/ Jim Logrando and Trisha Novy)
    Apr 22 2026
    The Heights was a short-lived TV show about a diverse seven-piece band that aired on Fox in the early 90s. Each episode ended with a music video that kinda encapsulated the whole episode, and at the end of the pilot episode, a young actor named Jamie Walters sung a song so powerful that it would be the end of the road for, well, “End of the Road” from Boyz II Men’s epic 13 week run at #1 on the Hot 100. “How Do You Talk to an Angel” would then become the show’s theme song by the third episode, and this fictional band was topping the charts. Funny enough, the show is called The Heights, and the band lives in an undisclosed place called “The Heights”, but they never actually say that it’s the band’s name on the show. It’s unclear if the band even had a name. It didn’t matter. Despite the song’s massive success, the show was canceled after 13 episodes, and we’re left to wonder how many more hits the show could’ve spawned if Aaron Spelling hadn’t given up on it. This week, we’re joined by the married couple of Jim Logrando and Trisha Novy to decide if there were even MORE heights that could’ve been reached if this television band could’ve gotten that Season 2 renewal.
