Hello, and welcome to APEisode # 23. We're outdoors, ya know. Starting with Prime, we hit (and miss) on a couple of lesser known deep cuts from Status Quo, String Driven Thing, and The Rainmakers, among some more well known PRIME cuts from Cake, Toto, and Joe Jackson, just naming a few.
Then on to Starting Lines w Floyd, Hagar, Montrose, and apparently one of us doesn't understand that DIO is a GOD!?!?!?!? Go Ask Alice, even she knows!
Lastly, we ask the question, What Are YOU Listening to? We share our thoughts, and ask for yours. Come ON, LISTEN AND RESPOND to APEisode 23! It's a jungle out here!

Somehow we've managed to create 20 of these and inflict them on the planet! (Planet Of MixedApez??) Celebrate with all of the MixedApez for a minute, as we play on, talk on, laugh on, ramble on, carry on, babble on, and game on with THE PREMIER Rock music challenge, commentary, and factoids podcast, You Should Know This Song!
We've been doing the podcast for a minute now and it's pretty exciting to get to the 20th episode, considering the average podcast ends after 6 or 7. And especially after some of the early struggles we had. We keep on cranking out shows, calling all you MixedApez out there who have song lyrics and music stuck in your brain box to ride along and give your mind some joy!
Seriously, love and appreciation to every APEZ who listens, follows, and shares the show, all over the world. We are doing this for you! Give us a shout and let us know where you are and who you are and what you think. We'll give you a shout out on an APEisode and share the love! www.YouShoudlKnowThisSong.com. Peace of APEZ to all!

Our latest APEisode is almost out of the teens, but don't think that means we're gonna grow up anytime soon. We begin with Starting Lines, offering only the first few words as a challenge. Nick Lowe, Pearl Jam, Kansas, Stealer's Wheel, RHCP, Iggy Pop, and others are included in the clues, and we keep em flowing fast and furious.
Our second segment is Your Mother Should Know. One of our faves. Appropriately, there is a Beatles challenge, and we also check in on The Cars, Pretenders, The Kinks, and because we have Too Much Time On Our Hands, Styx and a few others. Did I just give something away?
The last segment in this APEisode is Tune That Name, the most recent addition to the APEZ challenge family, where we provide an 'alternative' naming of the song or the band, or "Whatever". Follow along, you'll figure it out.
It's our LAST CHANCE to get away with being a teen, because 20 is right around the corner. Even APEZ have to grow up... eventually. Come on, join us for a joy ride before they make us start acting our age.

This APEisode, the APEZ joy ride down Route 66 stopping in on the places in songs from CCR, Beatles, Cracker, 3 Dog Night, Wings, Mountain and more. Who knew Route 66 would go Back In The USSR, to Katmandu, and Spain?!?!?!
Then in Prime Cuts it's the expected hilarity and stupidity you've come to know and love. And maybe some talk about songs you love too! We Bullet The Blue Sky, we Turn Japanese, we pile up Dirty Laundry, and oops we Rusted our Root.... And Aerosmith, Pete Townsend, POCO, Don Henley and Steve Miller get in too.
But wait! In Prime Twist you also get....double Scorpions, Buddy Holly, Wild Cherry and it goes on! Such a deal! And all for the low, low price of 45 minutes of pure joy! So swing along with MixedApez and see if You Should Know This Song too!
Psssst, hey, down here...we'd love to know what you think of the APEisode. If you got some of the clues, ALL of the clues. ?? If you liked the games. If you got a song stuck in your head. If you've got a correction. Your favorite recipe. Let us know you're out there!!

If only we'd learned the truth at seventeen... then we might not be bringing you this delightful new 17th APEisode. We start with some MIXEDAPEZ Twist & Shout. A twisted segment where the song comes first, and the LYRICS are the answer. Frankly, when I was 17, I THOUGHT the lyrics WERE the answer. Either way, we've got songs by Bob Marley & the Wailers, Timbuk3, Joe Jackson, Van Halen and so much more in this segment.
Then some tasty, if slightly weird, Bean Enchiladas. A listener favorite segment, where we mangle the lyrics to songs you know and love. Clues include "Come on, peel an orange", and "She eats cole-slaw every day". Why are they always about food? With Nirvana, The Police, BOC, and Zeppelin among the bands (just to name a few) whose lyrics we turn sideways, there's something for every taste here.
We wrap it up with Your Mother Should Know, with clues just about anybody can figure out, even us APEZ. Songs from The Beach Boys, Sly & the Family Stone, Hootie, and a handful of others round out the APEisode and everybody getsthe correct answer out in 'record' time. I really can't help the dad jokes, and that's the way, uh-huh, we like it.
So connect with us and get the latest APEisode, and help us celebrate our 17th. Rock & Roll, kids. We're gonna grow up someday, but probably not today.

Let's play ASK AND YE SHALL DECEIVE with Joe Jackson, Frankie Goes To Hollywood, Deep Purple, Jolene, more! And while we're at it, how about a new game STARTING LINES including Talking Heads, Bad Co, Hollies, Bowie, and so on. And then PRIME CUTS to finish the party!

And blow out the candles with us, for You Should Know This Song! THE ROCK MUSIC LYRIC CHALLENGE AND COMMENTARY PODCAST!
WE ARE MIXEDAPEZ
presenting
YOU SHOULD KNOW THIS SONG!
Rock lyrics. Everybody knows 'em. Or do they?
We've been trading lyric challenges for over 20 years. We've had so much fun, we decided to share. We have a few different kinds of challenges, but mostly we just want to talk about the music, the bands, the shows, random factoids, and whatever else (Rock related) comes up.
We're here to share our thoughts and commentary on the music we know and love. But we also want to hear from YOU.
ARE YOU MIXEDAPEZ?
We think there are plenty of us out there.
Listen to the podcast and join us in the jungle! There's plenty of weird to go around.
