In which Becky and Dan commemorate Hispanic Heritage Month by ripping on the 1984 Genesis hit Illegal Alien. Along the way they ask some great questions, namely How the fuck did this song get made? Why on earth would Collins sing in that accent? How cool was Quentin Crisp? Are songs like Illegal Alien actually really helpful for defining the lines around what's acceptable?

In which Becky and Dan take on "Don't You Want Me", the 1982 smash new wave hit from The Human League. Along the way they ask some pretty great questions, like Why are men today so mad? Who is this crazy stalker in the song? Just because someone's on Spotify, does that make them any good? And is our free will any match for the algorithm?

In which Becky and Dan talk about the good, the bad, and the ugly of lyrics with Zuzu West, an LA-based singer-songwriter. They talk about what's inspired Zuzu's songwriting and what she thinks makes for strong lyrics before getting to some really important questions: Did Desiree spend more than two minutes on the lyrics to Life? Does anyone call Shakespeare "Billy"? Should some songs have a "written by a man" disclaimer?

Check out Zuzu on Spotify!
