Episode 1: November 24, 1979
The blog non-sensation is now a podcast. Join Roger Stroop as he looks back at a sampling of hits from the American, Canadian, and British pop charts of the last week of November 1979. Were the Village People truly prepared for a new decade? Were Trooper qualified to judge female attractiveness? What is a "monkey chop?" How did Herb Alpert become associated with tales of violence and kidnapping? Since when were ABBA so horny? And how many drugs do you need to take to decide that what your hugely successful band needs for their next hit is more hitting meat with a spatula? If you're curious about these things, and you believe that dreaming is free and there's nothing weird about Kermit the Frog being a pop star, this is the podcast for you. It's a very DIY, low tech production, but you will be informed and entertained, or my name isn't Bobby Glovehead...oh, wait. But still, try it, you'll like it.
