Strange Country Ep. 104: Milli Vanilli

Readers, you know it's true. We love you. In case you are wondering how we came up with that amazing poem, just ask some German man who really is in charge of what you hear each week on Strange Country. That's right we are all smoke and mirrors. No, that isn't true. Because if we were lying to you about our identity and our script writing skills, Kelly and Beth would be throwing up on air and that really isn't something you want to hear. Ladies and Gentlemen we are bringing you the strange story of Milli Vanilli. Yes it is a story from the 1990's. Yes it is all about pop music. And yes, it includes German dance moves that can't be beat. But it is also a story like all the others that you have grown to love on our weekly podcast; depression, deceit, poverty and power. Theme music: Resting Place by A Cast of Thousands. Cite your sources, girl: Hindmann, Chiccecheto, Jessica. Sounds Like Titanic.  https://people.com/music/milli-vanilli-lip-sync-scandal-anniversary/ https://www.npr.org/2019/02/13/693532490/aspirations-come-up-against-economic-hardship-in-sounds-like-titanic https://www.huffpost.com/entry/milli-vanilli_n_4860222 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ys9mfYrybPo
