The Life is in the Lyrics Podcast

This week we be off script y'all. That's right, we figured we'd do something a tad bit different by doing all bullsh*t all episode! Is it different though? A little more about shlemiel and shlimazle, Mike introduces a bop (watch him dance on our insta post @theLIITLpodcast), and we debate whether Timothée's star has taken a nose dive.

Priya has an 'aha' moment of self-realization that is less than flattering, Mike's cookie obsession is revisited, and we explore our insecurities when making new friends as adults. Then it's a trip down memory lane (waaaayyyyy down) to play 'Name That Show' as we take turns singing TV theme songs. Here's one--Schlemiel, Schlimazel, Hasenpfeffer Incorporated!

Priya worries about how much she’s been oversharing and as proof, Mike summarizes all her poop stories...three to be exact. And we introduce a new segment based on The Voice: Battle of Champions! Ok, now on with the show…and it’s all about the ladies! Let us regale you with some of the musical records that women hold, and they are pretty, pretty cool.

We're bringing sexy back LIITL Listeners! We revisit our 'sex faces' and whether we have 'sex voices', being vain when smacking pelvises together, and give a shout out to Canadian comic master, Mark McKinney for his visual description of...'the act' in the show Superstore. But let's get to the dirty folks, and we mean the songs that make you feel dirty--in a good way! PS we didn't even plan it but what a happy coincidence that this is episode number 69.

There's no time for banter this week because Priya has FINALLY watched Heated Rivalry and it's about to get steamy up in the studio! Shockingly we bare-ly discuss the sex scenes (see what we did there?) BUTT, as usual, Priya keeps the innuendos flowing as we focus on the incredible music that deepens all the feels in this beautiful, truly Canadian, global hit show. Hats (or shall we say, 'helmets'?) off to show creator, Jacob Tierney, and soundtrack composer, Peter Peter for creating a show that celebrates love in all it's emotional and physical nakedness.

Mike's hot-spotting his wifi connection while Priya is hot-spotting in sunny Vietnam! We're on opposite sides of the world during this episode and Priya makes sure to rub it in. A tribute to the great Catherine O'Hara, a shout out to the pure joy and compassion that are hallmarks of Schitt's Creek and Heated Rivalry, plus we touch upon Bieber's Grammys performance and the first-ever Grammys win by a KPOP group. BUT FIRST we talk about the music we listen to on vacation, from the flight (to reduce anxiety eek!) to moments exploring a new city, to songs that remind you of certain getaways. This is a full episode Little Listeners, enjoy!

Priya's obsessed with The Next Act, while Mike actually comes through on one of Priya's 'please listen to this' requests! Plus a new/old song that relates directly to this week's episode which is all about self-love...not the sexual kind so get your hands where we can see them! It's love month and The Greatest Love of All is loving yourself LIITL Listeners!

In today's English class, wait, let's try again. In today's episode we're talking about mondegreen's. What's a mondegreen you ask? Listen in to find out :) But first, we discuss getting money as gifts, Toronto's love of a goddam pilot project, and the excitement of the Sears catalogue arrival...random January chat, yo! Alright, let's carry on.

We know the holidays have just ended but this really is the MOST wonderful time of the year because this week (drum roll please) it's ALL ABOUT PRIYA! Mike introduces Priya to a new…ahm…colourful way to describe a part of the male torso, there may be some tea spilled from our childhood diaries, and Priya gives her confession and then announces her gift to all the LIITL Listeners for this episode. What will we get up to? It's all up in the air, or should we say in the sky? Tune in to find out!

When is it time to stop saying "Happy New Year"? Is self-imposed celibacy really a thing? Do Priya and Mike really find everything "interesting"? Don't worry folks, it's uphill from this riveting bullish*t because this week it's all about surprise songs! WTF does that mean? LIITL Listeners, you'll just have to tune in to find out!
