Understand Jan 22, 2025

Show notes

Listen this week as we are joined by our friend Tonia from Freedom4GM again and we spin "Understand", the first song from the 3rd disc of the 2006 Twenty-Five Greatest Hits set! This disc was called "for the loyal" and that certainly describes us! Hear about Tonia choosing to be defiant over the holidays and how we feel about this time in George's musical journey and his faith and what it meant to him.

Special Christmas Episode! Dec 25, 2024

Show notes

Listen this week as we catch up with Shirley Lewis and hear all about her show in December in London and some hints of plans for next year. From there we get to hear from all of you and your special memories of George and the days of Christmas past as well as some memories of where we all were in 2016.

** For some reason the sound changes on my microhone in the last section- but the words were heartfelt, so I left it in! **

It is the thoughts that count!

Have a Merry Christmas, Happy Hanukkah, or whatever you celebrate!

Gold Digger Theme Show! Dec 18, 2024

Show notes

Listen this week as we are joined by Jen from Michigan, a faithful listener to the show with a very interesting theory! Do the songs "Everything She Wants", "Credit Card Baby" and "Happy" all share a similar theme of women who are more interested in what a man can do for them financially than they are in the idea of love? We debate these ideas and dive into all these songs with a new potential passion!
