Concepts Episode 7: Blue (1971)

The boys get so blue when they talk about Joni Mitchell’s seminal confessional, also called “Blue”. Nick and Matt spend much of the episode in awe of Joni’s brilliant songwriting prowess and reflecting on the album’s crushing sadness, but they do of course find time for some of their classic “goofs”, “japes”, and of course: “funnies”. Other topics include Nick’s grand unifying theory of the Joni Cinematic Universe, Joni Mitchell’s well-documented love for Pepsi Blue, and Matt’s pitch for Amelia Earheart returning as Captain America.
