Hey! Ho! The TMI guys go downtown to NYC's Bowery to examine the birth of punk and one of the greatest debuts in rock history. You'll learn the often-traumatic backstory of these four non-brothers and explore the equally horrific urine-streaked venues in which they played.  You'll also delve into the insanely low-resource recording sessions for their self-titled first album and revisit the Ramones' famous London gig that jump-started punk in the UK. Plus, Heigl makes a compelling argument that the '60s Laurel Canyon music scene was a CIA psy-op, and Jordan makes sure to highlight each of the Ramones MANY surprising Beatles connections. (There are a LOT.)
