    Yacht Rock Doc & RIP Ricky Henderson

    In this episode, we set sail on smooth waters with a deep dive into HBO Max’s yacht rock documentary. We ask the hard-hitting question: Did MTV kill yacht rock? While we didn’t settle on a definitive Mount Rushmore of yacht rock legends, we discuss some major contenders like Michael McDonald, Toto, Steely Dan, Kenny Loggins, and Christopher Cross. Mike joins us for a hilarious “Misheard Lyric Minute,” where we unravel some of the most misunderstood lines from classic tracks. Plus, we play a fun round of “Hot Yacht Rock or Yuck, Not Rock,” introducing two songs to determine if they have what it takes to glide into the yacht rock canon. Lastly, we pay tribute to baseball legend Rickey Henderson, reflecting on his incredible career, record-breaking accolades, and the lasting legacy he left on the game. Grab your captain’s hat and join us for a voyage filled with smooth tunes and heartfelt tributes! Send us a voicemail at: https://www.speakpipe.com/The70sVsThe80s
