It’s pretty awesome when an artist hears one of our episodes about THEIR hit, and then comes on to discuss someone else’s hit! That’s exactly what happened this week, as we’re joined by Dishwalla bassist Scot Alexander to discuss Canadian pop rock sensation Tal Bachman’s unrelentingly catchy 1999 hit “She’s So High”.

We had a dream…when we were in high school…that we attended…a PUNK ROCK ACADEMY! And you better believe that Adam Goren (aka Atom and His Package) would have been our favorite teacher, which is why we’re SO psyched that he joined us this week to discuss Falco’s 1985 hit “Rock Me Amadeus”.
