Episode 22.1: The Day the Yacht Sank

Tom and John kick off Season 3 of “Out of the Main” exploring when, why and how yacht rock went the way of the dodo (at least temporarily) in 1985. What was the day our favorite music died, and what killed it? Everything from technology advancements, to kulturkampf, MTV, the second British invasion, and changing tastes in music and pop culture more generally. The boat took on a lot of water, friends. Plus! New feature: The Supersonic Smash-Up! Try your hand: Can you name these five songs, in order? First one to get it right wins their choice of item from the Out of the Main Gear and Tackle Store.
