149 – Top 5 Boy Bands & Girl Groups

I wanna rank it that way.

If you were born in the 80’s or 90’s you know how much Boy Bands and Girl Groups absolutely dominated the music industry. The fabricated personas of a group of 3-5 individuals were all the rage back then from the cute one, the bad boy, the sporty one, the list goes on and on. While they may not be as popular as they used to be, there’s something primal that happens when you play a song from one of these groups that transports you back to your pre-teen era; and before you know it you are belting out on a karaoke stage and dancing your face off. So this week join Tuong La and Teen Music Heart Throbs Desiree Connors Warmington, Kristine Shadid, and Marc Quintaneiro as they get down, get down, and move it all around while ranking Top 5 Boy Bands and Girl Groups.

144 – Top 5 2000’s Songs

Holla newbies! We are in the 2000’s now!

We did the 80’s, we did the 90’s, now it’s time to tackle the best music of the 2000’s! The 2000’s was a big turning point in the music industry. With the rise of portable music players (ie mp3 players and the iPod classic) and digital storefronts to download songs, listening to music became easier and more accessible than ever. Because of that, we got a boom in the quantity and quality of songs that came out in this decade from essentially every genre which is what made today’s episode particularly difficult (but not impossible!). So join Tuong La and your “Baller Homeskillets” Axandre Lemours, Colleen Wang, and Victoria Luloff as they bring back “fetch” while getting “crunk” and make a Top 5 2000’s songs list!

112 – Top 5 Conspiracy Theories

Question everything (even this podcast).

Humans have this undying and relentless need to uncover the truth to things. However, sometimes an answer to a question is not satisfying enough and we are left in this state of “well that’s too simple” or “I don’t buy it”. That’s why we gravitate towards conspiracy theories, as wild as some may be. They contain just enough nuggets of truth in there to make things plausible and their explanation can throw everything back into question on what we know. So join Tuong La and co-conspirators Patricia Eddu, Stefanie McBurns, and Stenley Philippe as they question everything (including themselves) while ranking Top 5 Conspiracy Theories!
