S4, E25 - Mother and Father

Mark and Kenny salvage through the wreckage that is the much-needed final uptempo song on American Life. Topics include Kylie Minogue, Matt Lauer, swinging nosy neighbors, album fatigue, the pros and cons of lyrical specificity, the Pulitzer Prize-winning Fun Home, childhood morals and lessons, the English Roses children’s book series, and Mark finally gets to talk about Joan Gustafson Ciccone. Plus, Kenny outs himself as a child pianist. “I’ve got to give it up” indeed!
