Listen to the Authors
James and Marco were friends first, then podcasters, then the creators of Trouble. Though they rarely post new episodes anymore, their old podcasts are still available to listen.
eightone81: Best Music Video Ever
A new pod! James Taylor and Marco Sparks devote one episode a week to a music video that was released between August 1, 1981 and September 11, 2001. We wax nostalgic over the lost artform of the music video, and try to put the era into context for any zoomers listening. This pod is currently on hiatus while we do a Ravenswood rewatch on the Bros Watch PLL Too feed.
