Christmas in July? How about Summer in December?! Summer GIRLS that is. Will the guys like LFO’s ode to Abercrombie and Fitch or does it make them sick?

With open-minds, Kevin and Casey start the podcast listening to one famously despised pop song - obviously, since we can’t play the track for legal reasons, this is a quick homework assignment for our listeners to stream on their own. Kevin and Casey will give their first impressions of hearing the song as well as some insight into what the time was like when it was originally released. Next, since they are both musicians, they’ll break down the good, the bad, and the ugly of the tune’s musical attributes and lyricism. They’ll compare this song to similar songs (that are loved!) and discuss why the world has decided this song is a famous turd.

Kevin and Casey finally tackle the children’s song that conquered the planet: Baby Shark. With a brutally honest nine-year-old guest in the studio, they investigate whether it’s a timeless kids’ classic, a New Order synth ripoff, or just a song designed to slowly melt parents’ brains. Between fart logic, daycare shoutouts, Hamilton debates, and an unexpected lyrical analysis of shark politics, the real question remains—does Baby Shark deserve a chance, or should it swim back into the abyss?

Kevin and Casey check into the Paris Hilton pop era to ask the real question: is Stars Are Blind a secret bop or just reggae-lite room service? They unpack fame-for-being-famous, 2000s tabloid chaos, and lyrics that somehow jump from Greek gods to “we could get physical” in under three minutes. It’s part pop experiment, part cultural time capsule, and part “wait…this is actually kind of catchy?” — proving that even heiresses can stumble into a hook.

Kevin and Casey stomp, clap, and cringe their way through Home, the millennial love anthem turned Gen Z punching bag by Edward Sharpe & the Magnetic Zeros. Kevin compares it to moldy peaches (the band and the fruit), Casey defends its wedding-core earnestness, and together they ask: is this song a barefoot bride in a $90K dress—or just the musical equivalent of a free people catalog?
