Dearly beloved, we are gathered here today to get through this thing called Life... and learn about one of pop music's biggest icons, Prince! His legendary film and soundtrack album Purple Rain dominated the mid-80s, whether he was tearing up the dance charts with When Doves Cry or triggering a congressional hearing full of parental outrage for Darling Nikki! We'll talk about the creation of the film, the whereabouts of his motorcycle, his legendary halftime show, and the unbelievable amount of music that's still in the vault! The Mixtaper has tales of smells, smoke, and spaghetti... get your toilets ready. Baby, The Artist Formerly Known As Prince (aaaand currently known as Prince, too) is a Star.. so Let's Go Crazy this week!

There's nothing like the sound of Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down, and there's no voice that can sing it like the froggy croak of Kris Kristofferson, perhaps the smartest man in music! His eponymous debut album is full of character work and hit after hit of excellent storytelling. We'll discover how he abandoned his Rhodes scholar days and exploited his military pilot training to harass a superstar and break into the music biz! After churning out hits like Me And Bobby McGee and To Beat The Devil he even launched a lucrative acting career... The man doesn't Stop Stopperson! The Mixtaper delivers during his Kris-themed round of Fact Or Spin where we learn about wrestling refs, brutish rugby, and Kristory in the making. Even if you don't love his music, you'll want to listen to this episode just For The Good Times!
