Guilty Pleasures

Should you ever be ashamed of liking something? Does the concept of a "guilty pleasure" even apply in the anything-goes 21st century? Can you like something that you also think is bad? Is it simple nostalgia, or a deep appreciation of craft? We attempt to answer these questions as we share some of our self-defined guiltiest pleasures, and explain why we feel bad for liking them. This episode is made with REAL CHEESE! -- References: Styx "Too Much Time On My Hands": https://youtu.be/5XcKBmdfpWs Styx "Come Sail Away": https://youtu.be/e5MAg_yWsq8 Styx "Blue Collar Man": https://youtu.be/CDM6v1XhWEg Styx "Babe": https://youtu.be/yaVyQS1T7TY Styx "Renegade": https://youtu.be/E9eLz4DrwF8 Fleetwood Mac "Tusk": https://youtu.be/ATMR5ettHz8 Sly Fox "Let's Go All The Way": https://youtu.be/X-tYprm1WRo Rihanna "Diamonds" (written by Sia): https://youtu.be/lWA2pjMjpBs Sia gets in trouble for "Music": https://nypost.com/2021/02/17/more-than-55000-critics-cancel-sias-music-amid-backlash/ Kenny Loggins "Easy Driver": https://youtu.be/rOFanKyFSUE Kenny Loggins "I'm Alright": https://youtu.be/PVjU7g6zWcw Kenny Loggins "This Is It": https://youtu.be/VS52sEUqxMo Bee Gees "Tragedy": https://youtu.be/WJcozEOWgxI Bee Gees "I Started A Joke": https://youtu.be/4ZWKR2zJESk Bee Gees "To Love Somebody": https://youtu.be/DWJWWHCFPbE Miley Cyrus "Wrecking Ball": https://youtu.be/My2FRPA3Gf8 Harry Styles "Watermelon Sugar": https://youtu.be/E07s5ZYygMg Katy Perry "Teenage Dream": https://youtu.be/98WtmW-lfeE Allan Holdsworth "Tokyo Dream" (Live 1984): https://youtu.be/txSs03ET-js Pat Metheny "Last Train Home": https://youtu.be/Sq5oqY3-vhg Al Dimeola (with Jan Hammer) "Sequencer": https://youtu.be/JS9hlHg9jXo Andy Summers & Robert Fripp "I Advance Masked": https://youtu.be/8vEM0GZWFJ0 Lady Gaga "Bad Romance": https://youtu.be/qrO4YZeyl0I Blondie "Heart of Glass": https://youtu.be/WGU_4-5RaxU Blondie "Hanging on the Telephone": https://youtu.be/uWhkbDMISl8 Michael Penn "No Myth": https://youtu.be/IxkJHX7ukKE Patrick Warren: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patrick_Warren Chamberlin (instrument): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chamberlin Combos stuffed snacks: https://www.combos.com/ https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Combos Raven "Hellraiser/Action": https://youtu.be/LIkeHK8nwss -- Michael Hateley: Lotus Mastering http://lotusmastering.com/ Extra Fancy "You Look Like a Movie Star": https://youtu.be/0pE1TqlWHCk Baldyloks (Michael Hateley & John Napier): https://soundcloud.com/baldyloks-1 Dee Madden: https://www.deemadden.com/ Penal Colony “Blue 9” video: https://youtu.be/Fes9E3ea8FY Dee Madden on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/4jsYxJ4QxzoGn9t0HRllPk Anu Kirk: https://www.anukirk.com Anu on Bandcamp Sid Luscious and The Pants on Bandcamp Luscious-235 on Bandcamp Rêvenir on Bandcamp Michael Hateley: Lotus Mastering http://lotusmastering.com/ Hello Crow Hello Crow, Michael's new EP is available now!
