Surprise! They have Old Man Yells at Music on podcasts now.
https://anchor.fm/oldmanyellsatmusic
The first episode is about songs on the American, British, and Canadian charts on November 24, 1979. I talk (!) about the Village People's optimism about the future, Trooper's fashion judgment, Kermit the Frog's pop career, the record-promoting power of soap opera assault, ABBA on the prowl, Fleetwood Mac's lack of fucks given, and much more. And at least three Simpsons references.
It's a DIY, no-budget production, and yeah, you can tell. There's a couple of glitches, and some nerves show through. And I apologize in advance to Ted Koppel for making it sound like he used to host a nightly nude show.
But overall, I think you'll find it interesting and entertaining. It's a new beginning. You could be one of the lucky ones who can say "I was listening when..." Or maybe it'll be more like "I was listening...why?" Either way, I invite you to give Episode 1: November 24, 1979 a try. It's not bad. Really.
Oh, and if you want to follow along, I made a companion YouTube playlist:https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLDWLXjsOJPQkAj8MhxUKbL41em-Bd8qCi.
Next time will be Part Two of November 10. For sure.
