Songs can teach you things! Who knew? Our artists knew, obviously. And we've learned a few cautionary tales in addition to our picks this week. Like... don't drink and gamble. Don't be a bad dad! Guns? Not our favorite. But if you're gonna have them, don't take them to town! And above all, if you're a jerk husband like Earl, well, watch out!
Our cautionary tale to you, dear listeners, is to stay in touch lest you want to make us sad. And we will be back September 2 with Season Two of Stereothematica!
