Reelin' The Tape Back is a podcast all about looking at songs, albums, and artists and how they have carried through history. This can be album reviews, but also it could be how applicable a song or album is to our modern environment. I hope you will join me on this informational sonic journey!
Just a quick episode to upload regarding an interesting take about how our society works in terms of our own thoughts. Expect a slew of episodes to come out within the coming weeks that have been in the works for a while due to papers and exams!
In this episode, we explore how greed works in common institutions and how it creates monsters in some of the people we trust the most.They were never your friends.
What was that promise that you made?
What do you get for pretending the danger's not real?
Justifiability is in the hands of the beholder?
All questions will be discovered.
What did they do wrong to deserve it? How'd each one react? These questions will be answered in the latest episode covering Carrie by Stephen King and The Wall by Pink Floyd!
While this episode is non-traditional, it briefly covers a piece of art that I think you all will find somewhat interesting. Look out for a new episode coming soon!
Who or what determines if some idea or piece is American? In this episode, me and my friends will be digging into this idea.
In this episode, the podcast splits in a more album-review like direction. In this case, I review Tug of War by Paul McCartney. This episode is definitely longer than usual, so if you are going to listen to it, I suggest that you listen to it all in one sitting.

In this episode of Reelin' The Tape Back, I go into depth in how the repetitive nature of Haitian Divorce by Steely Dan enhances the central theme of repetition in Kate Chopin's The Awakening.
