In Part II of our series we take on Imagine Dragons at their biggest, their boldest, their most obnoxious stage. During the mid-2010s this "rock" band brought their thunderous stomp-clap earworms to every observable realm of the human experience. Whether you were simply trying to listen to the radio, watch a football game, or take a stroll through a shopping center you COULD NOT escape this band.
In this episode we try to parse out just what it is that made Imagine Dragons so commercially successful, and why that's so annoying to old geezers like us. On the flip side, we also talk about some of Imagine Dragons' charitable efforts including their support for Mormon LGBTQ+ youth.
We also, quite predictably, go off on random tangents about fast food and obscure PC games.
