There's no music writer like the essayist and poet Hanif Abdurraqib: whether he's narrating the beautiful awkwardness of a Carly Rae Jepsen concert or talking jazz and eastern spirituality with Andre 3000, he manages to coax stories and insights out of songs in a way that never fails to surprise. His latest book, There's Always This Year, is a free flowing meditation on basketball, childhood, his home state of Ohio, and of course, music – so on the precipice of the NBA finals, Hanif returns to Switched On Pop to discuss classic soul, sports, and sound with musicologist Nate Sloan. You can buy Hanif's work through his website here. Songs discussed: Boyz II Men, "On Bended Knee" Otis Redding, "My Girl" The Temptations, "My Girl" Joy Oladokun, "My Girl" Stevie Wonder, "My Girl" Stevie Wonder, "Knocks Me Off My Feet" Trent Reznor, Atticus Ross, "Challengers: Match Point" Learn more about your ad choices.

Para festejar San Valentín vimos My Girl (1991), la primera peli de Anna Chlumsky que todos pensábamos que era la nueva de Macaulay Culkin. Analizamos la profundo lenguaje simbólico de la película, y de alguna manera debatimos Eros y Tánatos, Verano Azul, Casper, y el videojuego nihilista de la película. Feliz día de los enamorados, y ¡ojo con las abejas! La cortina musical que abre y cierra el episodio es My Girl (The Temptations) en versión cumbia, compuesta especialmente para el programa. En este episodio hablamos de My Girl (1991) - IMDB, Letterboxd, Wikipedia Links Tánatos y Eros Louis C.K.

Air Date: 05/26/2015 Today we take a look at the US death penalty from all angles. Cultural norms? We’re an outlier. Protecting the innocent? We kill innocent people. Following the letter of the law? We’re absolutely breaking the 8th amendment to the Constitution. Fiscal responsibility? The death penalty costs about 3 times more than life imprisonment. And don’t forget about the racially biased implementation and the structurally biased trail system of death penalty cases. Be part of the show!
