Hope and Jackie are back at it again, returning with some ear hole goodness. This time we discuss fashion icon, punk musician, and writer Poly Styrene. She wore a highlighter color scheme that interlaced with her sound, poetry, and art. Her fashion shouted out to the world how scrupulous her frenemy relationship to Dayglo could be.

Well we get into it and it isn't what you think it is. Tune in to find out!
