In this episode: Ted talks about how the kidnapping and murder of a young girl in his hometown of Antioch, CA in 1983. A murder that led to him to being a witness in the case almost two decades later. The way in which a community reacts to a murder reminded him of the 2016 book, Hannah Mary Tabbs and the Disembodied Torso: A Tale of Race, Sex, and Violence in America by historian Kali Nicole Gross. In the second segment, Ted revisits Rolling Stone magazine’s 500 Greatest Albums of All Time to feature five records. In the last segment, John Young returns to chat with Ted about a 2018 piece Ted wrote titled, “Rock is Dead” (http://pykorry.com/rock-is-dead/). However, in 2021 both Ted and John think they aren’t ready to perform the last rites on the genre due to certain trends that have changed over the course of the Covid-19 pandemic.
