4th of July Extravaganza! Shane and I look at a century old piece of music writing: "Does the Jazz put the Sin in Syncopation?" an insane work about Jazz music turning you into a violent, lazy, flapper with a Bolshevik element.
WARNING:
A lot of profanity in this episode, we were agitated by losing the first recording of this episode and worked a bit bluer than normal.
