110: "Come on Eileen" (by Save Ferris) vs. "Take on Me" (by Reel Big Fish) Jul 12, 2023

Show notes

Pickitup pickitup pickitup pickitup. I mean, seriously, pick up your plaid fedora and matching pants because we have a ska matchup! And boy, did those ska bands like covers. So we have two ska covers songs to pit against each other today, which is the best, Save Ferris's "Come on Eileen" or Reel Big Fish's "Take on Me"?

109: "Born in the USA" vs. "Rockin' in the Free World" Jun 28, 2023

Show notes

It's the '80s and we love America! Or do we? Two of our all-time greatest rockers have thoughts about the ways the good old United States has let us down, but which one hits harder, Bruce Springsteen's "Born in the USA" or Neil Young's "Rockin' in the Free World"?

108: "Wannabe" vs. "MMMBop" Jun 13, 2023

Show notes

The '90s pop explosion begins! And it begins with complete nonsense!! The dour grungy world of the '90s was suddenly full of mmmbopadubadops and zigazigahs. But only one could be the greatest pop song of 1997 so which will it be?? "Wannabe" by The Spice Girls or "MMMBop" by Hanson?

107: "Anarchy in the UK" vs. "London Calling" May 23, 2023

Show notes

Oi! It's the late '70s and we're sticking it to Buckingham Palace! Which legendary punk anthem ruffles feathers and makes monocles drop into the River Thames better, the Sex Pistols' "Anarchy in the UK" or The Clash's "London Calling"?

106: "Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang" vs. "Gangsta's Paradise" May 10, 2023

Show notes

They're two of the biggest gangsta hits of all time. But who is more of a gangsta? Is it Dr. Dre and Snoop Doggy Dogg's "Nuthin' but a 'G' Thang" or Coolio's "Gangsta's Paradise"?

105: "Sledgehammer" vs. "Burning Down the House" Apr 26, 2023

Show notes

It turns out the art-rockers of the '80s could make big pop songs too! What's the best new wave crossover MTV jam, Talking Heads' "Burning Down the House" or Peter Gabriel's "Sledgehammer"?

104: "Jenny from the Block" vs. "Glamorous" Apr 12, 2023

Show notes

We're keeping it real in the 2000s and we're not letting our fame and success change us. But which pop diva pulls it off better, "Jenny from the Block" by Jennifer Lopez or "Glamorous" by Fergie?

103: "It's Tricky" vs. "No Sleep Till Brooklyn" Mar 22, 2023

Show notes

Here we go! We're cold kickin' it live with some '80s hip-hop, and I think it's very vital that we decide who's the best at rockin' the mic! Does Run-DMC show us that "It's Tricky"? Or are rockin' this party eight days a week with the Beastie Boys' "No Sleep Till Brooklyn"?

102: "With Arms Wide Open" vs. "How You Remind Me" Mar 08, 2023

Show notes

Oh, it's one of those episodes! In the early '00s two mega-popular bands were derided as the worst bands alive, but are Todd and Lina going to keep beating that dead horse? We argue what's the best buttrock song, Creed's "With Arms Wide Open" or Nickelback's "How You Remind Me"!

101: "Brick House" vs. "Super Freak" Feb 21, 2023

Show notes

She's a brick.... freak. She's super freaky! Well, we've decided that she can only be one of two things, so we're going to tackle the subtle differences between '70s funk and '80s funk and decide between The Commodores' "Brick House" and Rick James's "Super Freak"!
