R.E.M.: Murmur (1983)

For all of our pro athlete listeners out there, tonight is the perfect night to dunk a basketball, cheat on your spouse, and then listen to the best podcast about R.E.M. and the 165th greatest album of all time, Murmur.   Before we get to the album, we show off our big cork and screw when we become the best wine podcast and provide a first timer's guide to Napa Valley. Then we thrown on our XXXL Big Johnson shirts and talk sports including Kirk Cousins attending the Twins game, youth soccer coaching, and whether it's OK to steal a YETI cooler off a public bike seat. Does that make you randy baby? YEEAAAHHHH BABY!!!    Then at (1:00:00) we walk off the tipping point and discuss R.E.M. and their debut album, Murmur. We cover R.E.M.'s nonsense lyrics, their impact on other bands, and the best jangle pop songs of all time.    If you join us next Tuesday, that'll be the day when we become the best Buddy Holly podcast and rave on about his 20 Golden Greats.
