    What Did They Mean By That?

    This is a podcast where two sisters bring to each episode the lyrics of a song. Neither sister knows the song until the show goes live. This element of surprise makes this show unique as the analysis by one is off the cuff, while the other has it heavily researched. They analyze words, connect them to their real life, sort out misheard lyrics, and offer history into the band and the song’s true meaning. Always full of banter and funny quips about what it’s like to just be a human.

    Show notes

    In the first episode of What Did They Mean By That, the sisters launch the podcast with a song everyone knows, but very few understand. We'll dive into some of the strangest lyrics ever recorded, speculate on the meaning, and then take a historical look to dissect what the writer really meant by that. And, bonus...this song has an urban legend behind it, one we've all accepted but never understood.

    Listen as Christine blows Julia's mind, and most likely, yours too.
