Ahoy, music lovers and adventurers! 🛥️🎶 Susan and Cort are back with another installment of their Kiwi escapades, and it’s all about the smooth sounds of Yacht Rock. From Christopher Cross to Michael McDonald, we’re unpacking the breezy vibes of this iconic genre.
Join us as we reminisce about 70s infomercials, unexpected collaborations (hello, Michael Jackson and Toto!), and the fascinating overlap between Yacht Rock and other genres like G Funk. Plus, the shocking truth behind Christopher Cross’s “Sailing” and its surprising awards sweep—yep, it’s literally about sailing.
Later, we take you on our Wednesday morning adventure to the glowworm caves of New Zealand. Will the beauty of nature keep us awake, or will jet lag win the day? Tune in for plenty of laughs, music trivia, and tales from our travels.
