Listen "Taboo Tracks"
Episode Synopsis
Send us a textThis week Lou & DJ Paulie dive deep into the music history you won't hear anywhere else, featuring The "Taboo Tracks" Top 10 Countdown. We're exploring smash hits that became controversial over time, often reflecting shifting cultural sensitivities or due to the artists themselves growing to hate their own songs. Listen in as we unpack the reasons why chart-toppers like Pat Benatar's "Hit Me with Your Best Shot", The Rolling Stones' "Brown Sugar", Heart's "All I Want to Do Is Make Love to You", and The Who's "Pinball Wizard" have been dropped from live set lists.Plus, tune in for a brand new segment: "Bad Band Breakups" with Todd Snyder! Todd runs down the legendary breakups, bad blood, and bad decisions that split iconic groups. Hear the untold stories behind the implosions of bands like The Beatles (Yoko Ono's influence and the legal battles), Oasis (the violent sibling rivalry), The Smiths (Morrissey vs. Marr), and Pink Floyd (Roger Waters' attempts to legally dissolve the band).We also squeeze in our favorite segments, including:• Stupid Criminals (Busted): Featuring tales of a man calling 911 because his mom didn't wash his clothes, a drunk driver crashing into a "Drive Sober" sign, and the woman who followed a sergeant in a stolen driver's education car because she "just wanted to see where he was going".• Random Facts: Did you know that a female ferret can die if she goes into heat and can't find a mate? Or that the oldest major soft drink in America is Dr. Pepper?• Bad Dates: Brace yourself for stories involving nipple piercings that "taste like house keys", sudden herpes confessions, and dating surveillance by an accompanying bodyguard.Catch the Back in Time Brothers every Monday on URL radio www.urlradio.net! and you can listen back anytime at www.backtimebrothers.comSupport the showThanks for listening.
