Very fun listening to this episode while doing lawn work. I, too, had a friend in high school who exposed me to more progressive music, but I actually fell into electronic myself. I was more of "Berlin School" listener of Tangerine Dream and Klaus Schulze having been introduced to their music in soundtracks from the early 80's.
I think it's been over 10 years since I've seen a jukebox outside of a Waffle House or those "app-based" players in a lot of sports bars. However, if I were to see one, I'd be too tempted to program it with "What's New Pussycat" by Tom Jones 15 times per the comedy bit by John Mulaney...

It just doesn't seem right without "plate."

James, I'm surprised you don't procure your own playlists on your phone like my husband. It's not as easy as it once was (so I'm told), but still possible. He keeps his music catalog on the computer and adds to/subtracts from accordingly on the phone. He takes pride in his playlists.

Did I hear that right? A bawdy dream with Flo from Progressive Insurance and a friend? Yegads! Well, can't control dreams.
