Rock 'n' Roll Takes Its Toll

Julia Hava & Eliza McLamb
About this episode
The girlies are back from sabbatical to discuss the psychos that tour even longer and harder than us — rockstars. They give you a brief rundown of rock as a genre, why it died in the 90's (according to Eliza and Gav), the property damage, animal abuse, and general tomfoolery of rock's greatest frontmen, and how touring damages your psyche. Digressions include Julia's review of The Rodeo, Eliza's fear that she's passing down generational trauma to her cat, and our ongoing beef with one listener's father.
