Every Pod You Cast: Ghost in the Machine, 1981

It’s Every Pod You Cast, a podcast dedicated to the British rock band The Police! Justin Mancini of TheCineMaverick.com & Cinema Joes is joined by Chris Mancini and Randy Allain of Media/Lit as they delve into the discography of the postpunk power trio, from 1978 to 1983.   In the fourth official episode of the season, Justin, Chris, and Randy discuss The Police’s divisive 1981 album. Justin offers some alternative state songs for his home state of New Jersey, Chris close-reads Stewart Copeland’s paean to fame, and Randy offers a sample of his mellifluous singing voice. And of course, they find time to discuss other artists they’ve been listening to apart from The Police.   Host Picks:   Loved You Since I Knew You (A Song We Think Is Underrated or Just Really Like) Chris – Hungry for You (J'aurais toujours faim de toi) Justin – Ωmegaman Randy – Invisible Sun   King of Pain (A Song We Don’t Like So Much) Chris – Rehumanize Yourself Justin – One World (Not Three) Randy – One World (Not Three)   De Do Do Do, De Da Da Da (A Favorite Lyric) Chris – Darkness Justin – Demolition Man Randy – Rehumanize Yourself   A Little Thing They Did Was Magic (A Favorite Musical Moment) Chris – Demolition Man Justin – Secret Journey Randy – Secret Journey   Other Artists We’ve Been Listening To: Chris – Týr Justin – Symphony X Randy – Nina Simone
