In this episode we discuss Richard Marx’s breakout hit, Don’t Mean Nothing (1987). It may be one of the one of the most cynically painted rock portraits of Hollywood in the 80’s, with surprise guest stars on back up. There are tangents galore in this episode from how the current global situation is impacting our ability to use prepositions, to how to introduce your kids to the Star Wars franchise, and an ode to the glories of fried chicken in the summertime.
