If there’s an official mission statement for the kind of music we all love, it’s “sex, drugs, and rock’n’roll” …these are the three main food groups in this world…
All three of these things affect the same portions of the brain: the amygdala, the nucleus accumbens, and the cerebellum…. All of them are involved in the secretion and regulation of dopamine, the “feel-good” hormone…
Dopamine is a very addictive hormone…whenever our brains squirt it out, the body goes “this is good! I want more!” …it happens when we hear a great song….it happens with certain drugs and alcohol, which is the basis of addiction…and it happens with an orgasm…
Once you’re inside this bubble, you may find things rather permissive…as long as you’re producing, people will look the other way…there’s no one to tell you “no”…and it doesn’t take long for some people to get lost in this world, coming to believe that normal rules of polite society don’t apply….you’re special, meaning that you can do anything…
That’s when your judgement starts to become suspect…and that’s when things start to get strange…how strange?...well…
Welcome to a show all about rock’n’roll and weird tales of sex.
