Fairly KickAss Podcast - SomeOnes: 1988, 2004, 2023

from The Fairly KickAss Podcast · host Fairly KickAss

Ah, SomeOnes. That time-honored tradition that we have tradished only once before, but traditions gotta start somewhere, right? ...right?The premise is simple in its complexity: each of us (Dan, J, and Zack, your KickAss Krew) get a randomly-generated year before the show. We then have to find a song that hit #1 on a chart (thus the name!), and write about it. That's it. That's the sum total of the guardrails that we have.Which chart? All of 'em. Which country even? All of 'em. What do we have to write about our song of choice? Literally anything.We go in a few directions, as you can guess, but that's part of the fun! Because really, this podcast is about expecting the unexpected, and if you don't even know what to expect, then you don't know what to unexpect either. Game. Set. Win.But we're not here to drop insider tennis terms on you: we're here to talk about music. And in this episode, our years were J with 1988, Dan with 2004, and Zack bringing up the rear (front, I guess?) with 2023.How did we do with our assignments? Would you have picked a different song from a different chart for a different reason?

We're taking our time and casually figuring out which direction to go, but as soon as we know, you'll know.Luckily, you already know what else you should know: and that's to Keep. Kicking. Ass.
