In this episode, Ken walks through the process of writing the chords for a song.   There are elements of discussion about song forms (this song is INTRO - CHORUS - VERSE - CHORUS - VERSE - BRIDGE - ALTERNATE VERSION OF CHORUS).  This is an episode of the podcast specifically designed for musicians writing songs -- others might enjoy it but we do want to set expectations for who might benefit most from this specific material.
The goal of the podcast is to show how to use chords and progressions in a song -- this song has a decent variety of chord progressions -- to strive for uniqueness and a level of in intrigue in one's writing.  There is obviously a balance (some level of the listener getting what they expect to hear vs. some surprises along the way) in this, the episode tries to cover some of those topics.   The use of suspensions and the value of creating an alternate chorus to end the piece in a bit of a surprising manner are also touched upon in the episode.
