Our Side A features one of the greatest Feisty Feminist songs of all time which was originally a man's account of bedding women—until Cyndi Lauper transformed it into a rallying cry for sexual equality. That’s right - we are talking about "Girls Just Wanna Have Fun".
Our Side B has been brewing since we first went to the white board for Cover Story. We’ve been waiting for the right time to talk about Harry Nilsson and his cover of “Everybody’s talkin’". Thanks to the awesome show on Netflix Russian Doll, which features one of Nilsson’s songs ad nauseum, we finally found the perfect moment to feature an episode on Harry Nilsson. We love a good Rabbit Hole here on the porch at Cover Story so don’t be surprised that our rabbit hole leads us to a bunch of banter about the Midnight Cowboy. Special thanks to our Guest Producer, Sean Marquand! We hope you enjoy... - Cover Story
