Just past the fifth anniversary of the untimely death of the still prolific and revolutionary Prince, I reconvene with Iain to dig into his history. We make lists of our favorite songs (minus all the hits, to make it interesting) and work through his career in order. This is a longer than usual episode (and there is a lot more to come) but it is worth it. Keep checking below for the full song list (I am still compiling it).
Songs:
I Wanna Be Your Lover
When Doves Cry
Bambi
Uptown
When You Were Mine (Cindy Lauper... Prince)
Controversy
1999
Little Red Corvette
Erotic City
The Beautiful Ones
Darling Nikki
Let's Go Crazy

Enter number Two? Episode two was actually good. This one is a bit of a mess. We do learn lots of new stuff. Sona and I have many notes. Mare proves herself a good detective (but a morally questionable one).

On the heels of our thrillers conversation, Sona and I decide to watch Mare of Easttown together. We both like it (she more than I) but it all adds to an interesting conversation. Plus we have a little legal sidebar on the MyPillow guy and his lawsuits.
