Description

Co-hosts John and Tom kick off "Out of the Main" by exploring origin stories. Everyone has their own personal origin story: how you discovered Yacht Rock, where you were, what happened next, and where you are today. But first…

• What’s Yacht Rock’s origin story? Where did the name come from, and how was the genre defined?
• What's the history of what was truly happening at the time (1976-1984)?
• What’s your own personal Yacht Rock story? Tom has his, John has another. What’s yours?
• What is the origin story for the “Out of the Main” Yacht Rock podcast?
• What are “The Five Stages of Yacht Rock,” and should there be a sixth?

The Lightning Round:

• Is it Yacht, or Is It Not?
• Buried Treasures
• Off the Map: Gimme a song that's not, but belongs on the yacht
