Mike is joined by Pete Graham, music radio veteran, to discuss a recent study revealing that song lyrics have become simpler, more repetitive, angrier, and self-obsessed over the past four decades.

Pete and Mike delve into the implications of this trend, considering the evolving landscape of music consumption and the literary acclaim of successful artists of the past.
