- To the world, Men Without Hats' "Safety Dance" is one of the ultimate signifiers of music in the 80s. But behind this novelty song is a band that is deeply CanCon and also not a joke (most of the time). Please remove your caps, grab a little baby and a big Bonhomme and dance if you want to.
Also discussed: the Gulf of Tonkin, Drake's payphone, "The New Canadian Canon", Slo Pitch, Below, dressing for winter, Mao's wife, pogoing, prog, joke songs, dancing, not dancing, the future of dancing and much more. - This is an episode about Big in Quebec band Bündock but it's mostly about other things.
