(1:04) We dive into earworm tunes, starting with Men Without Hats. Why do we gravitate towards miserable songs when we're feeling down? We also explore the allure of "9 Caronas" and discuss the remarkable range of Faith No More. Sean shares anecdotes about working in retail, highlighting artists that drove him crazy including Madonna, particularly during the release of her controversial SEX book. He recounts tales of trenchcoat-clad individuals and the risks associated with the release of American Psycho. Honorable mentions go to Hootie and the Blowfish and the classic "Don't Worry Be Happy."
