About this episode
Looking for a good, old-fashioned mystery that you can’t Google your way out of? Bethany is bringing the tale of “The Most Mysterious Song on the Internet,” a post-punk song from 1984 that someone in Germany taped off the radio and has been trying to ID since. Have you heard it before?  Can you solve this mystery once and for all? Then, since we’re all getting back together - and we’re super rusty at conversation - Kathleen is bringing some unique small talk conversation starters to class! Also, remember: you’re not a doctor unless you’re a doctor.
