Description

Suffice to say that America's spirit in 1976 was a bit...mixed. The first half of the 70s carried the weight of war, social discord, and assorted political drama that began in the 60s. Even the very question of whether or not the U.S. should celebrate and, if so, how, was up in the air. This episode examines the collective mood of the U.S. on the occasion of its 200th birthday and takes a look at songs that made it to #1 on the Billboard Hot 100.
