Episode 9 - Go West Young Man by Michael W. Smith
Show Notes

This one's a toughie, but in a different way. Michael W. Smith was probably the most important CCM artist in Kelly's house growing up. If you're thinking he wanted to be him...that'd be strange. But you'd be right!

Kelly and John discuss their general enjoyment for the songs on his 1990 album, Go West Young Man. But there's a lot going on here. MWS might be...a dum dum? With that hair, who gives a shit?! On this episode's John Joins the Fan Club, John discusses some surprising evidence regarding Smith's ties to the occult...or is he just an Alan Parsons Project super fan?

Listen now and find out how many times John and Kelly say "that's interesting" to each other!
