#214 - The Cover Episode

Alternative 80s

Listener Adam Agosto asked about doing a podcast of Alt80s covers. Low and behold - here it is! No rhyme or reason for most of the selections, I just enjoyed them and hope you will as well. Thanks for the suggestion, Adam! Original artist names are included in the off chance you don't recognize one. Enjoy!
