Episode Details

We chase the weird and wonderful corners of music history, from a star-packed tennis fundraiser that somehow happens without the Eagles to a rap-rock collaboration that permanently shifts what radio can be. We also swap boots-on-the-ground stories from Shaky Knees in Atlanta, including a perfect Strokes set, a storm evacuation, and Wu-Tang turning a festival night into a celebration. 
• the Eagles Rock and Roll Tennis Festival as a charity event with a surreal guest list 
• the Eagles missing their own festival while finishing Hotel California 
• Run-DMC and Aerosmith making Walk This Way a breakthrough hip hop and rock crossover 
• the MTV video concept and why it fuels the song’s impact 
• Shaky Knees Friday recap with Turnstile crowd energy and The Strokes delivering big 
• Saturday weather chaos, evacuation confusion, and the sting of canceled favorites 
• Sunday highlights with Jet and a surprisingly uplifting Wu-Tang Clan set 
• rapid-fire music history picks: The Hollies, The Kinks, AC/DC, Blue Oyster Cult
