For your Thanksgiving enjoyment, in contrast to past holiday episodes that aided with digestion, this one is designed to help with any harvest meal prep. However, amidst all the food-related songs, it's heavily pizza related for those who eschew roast beasts or roast beets.

The dream is always the same. Long in the hopper, we finally properly profile Tangerine Dream's score to Tom Cruise's breakout film: 1983's Risky Business. We've touched upon it in the past but we do a better focus this time. (The podcast may take some time to appear based on recent upgrades made to our server, so stand by for partial excitement. If things get lost, I may reconstruct this down the road if I'm short of material or most likely, time one week. We have hundreds of ideas in the backlog and we can't wait to get new shows into your eardrums.) 01. The Beach Boys: Caroline, No (Pet Sounds, 1966) Capitol 02.
