Sunblind Guitarist Juan Rodriguez joins the show this week while we debate if Squeeze is a one hit wonder.

We are tempted to go off on tangents about music as a whole but we squeeze in plenty of fun facts about the iconic early New Wave band SQUEEZE.

Not only is his band heavily influenced by Rick Springfield, but Matt is arguably his biggest fan.
