Manage episode 418556167 series 2642812
It's May 16th. This day in 1964, the FBI drops its years-long investigation into the pop song "Louie Louie."
Jody, NIki, and Kellie discuss why there was a moral and political panic over the song and its indecipherable lyrics -- and look into what the song is actually about.
