12. WOULDN’T IT BE NICE: Why Did We Make a Podcast About the Beach Boys?
Episode 12
Tuesday, 15 October, 2024
Dedicated to Melinda Ledbetter Wilson (1946 - 2024) "In a perfect world, things would end when every piece lines up perfectly, making us feel okay enough to let go. But in reality —as is the case with The Beach Boys— things go on for too long. We overstay our welcomes. And we learn to look back on the highs, even if we spend a lot of our lives experiencing the lows. This is one of those rare times where we get to choose how it ends. And as cliche as it sounds, I think we need to end this podcast the same way we started it. By answering the question: Why make a podcast about The Beach Boys?" And just like that… our twelve episode (and four year lol) journey is over! Join us for one final pleasure cruise as your hosts, the titular beach gals, take a look at where we’ve been, how we got there, and where we’re going next. And of course, it’s the end of the podcast but never the end to #ROSIEVISIONS (Rosie + Krista, Beach Boys fans and best friends 5va). The more we talk about it, it only makes it worse to live without it… so let’s talk about it! Krista makes the case that the movie Yesterday should’ve actually been about the Beach Boys. Rosie has still never seen The Irishman. Both hosts finally learn why God made the radio
