Rumours (Part Two): What the Album Left BehindWe finish our Rumours deep dive by focusing on the songs that didn’t make the final tracklist — especially “Silver Springs,” the B-side that became legend.This episode explores outtakes, emotional fallout, and the version of Rumours that almost existed.

In Part One of Two from our Rumours series, we dig into the early history of the album and take a closer look at “Dreams” and “I Don’t Wanna Know” - two Stevie Nicks songs that reveal how Rumours was shaped by timing, practicality, and compromise.

Part Two will explore Gold Dust Woman, The Chain, and the songs that were left behind.

This week Randy and Anthony unbox the Bella Donna Barbie, armed with scissors, an X-Acto knife, and way too many opinions about doll hair.

What starts as a simple unboxing quickly becomes an obsessive deep dive into era accuracy, album cover details we never noticed (hello, hidden bracelet and ring!), and whether Stevie's dress should've been lavender instead of white. We battle industrial-strength plastic packaging, wrestle with plastic, printed cockatiel, discover embossed floral patterns, debate the lack of era-appropriate tambourines, and have strong feelings about those bangs.

Join us as we take this Barbie way too seriously, because our girl Stevie deserves nothing less. Plus, we dream about future Stevie Barbies (Midnight Special hair, anyone?) and share our plans for elaborate dioramas.

Final rating: 8/10. Would unbox again.

Topics discussed:

• Bella Donna Barbie unboxing chaos
• Album cover accuracy and hidden details
• The hair volume situation
• Era-specific accessory debates
• Rumors Barbie vs. Bella Donna Barbie
• Dream Stevie Barbies we need Mattel to make
• DIY customization plans
• And so much more

A little bonus glam to get you ready for our full Stevie Nicks Fashion episode! Antony is rating four looks: will they make us Stand Back in awe — or go Straight Back into the closet? Watch this, then catch the full episode for the ultimate Stevie style breakdown.

She never graced the cover of Vogue, but Stevie's influence is stitched into the seams of music culture. In this episode, we unpack the fashion evolution of Stevie Nicks, era by era. From the naked mysticism of Buckingham Nicks to the high-heeled haze of The Wild Heart, from velvet midi-coats to fingerless gloves and moonstone necklaces, Stevie built a look so iconic it transcended trend. We talk about the clothes, what they meant, what they shielded, and how they influenced others. Certain pop stars named after Jesus’ mom who didn't invent fingerless gloves, we see you. Also, yes. There’s a turban. On Randy.Turban provided by Scrappy Cat .

It’s finally Fleetwood Mac time — this episode, we review the self-titled “Fleetwood Mac” album, aka the ‘White Album,’ that introduced the world to a little-known artist named Stevie Nicks. ✨ But don’t expect a track-by-track of the whole band’s work… we’re mostly here for the Stevie songs.
Join us as we unpack the mystery of “Rhiannon” 🐧🕊️🦚, the wonderfully underrated “Crystal” 💎, and the legacy-defining “Landslide.” 🏔️ It’s Stevie’s debut — and our ode to the moment she walked into so many of our lives. 🥾
