Episode 10
Thursday, 1 August, 2024

In this 4 part series, we dive into Joni Mitchell's 1985 album "Dog Eat Dog," a polarizing departure from her iconic 1960s folk roots. Embracing the digital soundscapes of the time, Joni channeled her frustration with the era's religious, political, and social controversies into a blunt political statement. Joining us to dissect this controversial chapter in Jon''s career is Jacob Ketcham.In this episode (Part 4) I'll explain the background of each track and Jacob and I will give our thoughts and reviews for each one.
