Episode 195: Where Is The Love

This week's theme from BlackEyed Peas and was inspired by Scott from Boston, Massachusetts when he wrote "I think it's pathetic that we have no good song writers nowadays. Think of all the great protest songs during the Vietnam War. Iraq is my generation's Vietnam and this is the only song I can think of that is actually a good protest song. Sad."

Another hot topic in the portion of Fame Games called Indie Insider Information.


PLUS! CD-Baby's Top-10 Albums from the Flava: Pea Addicts!! Special Dedication goes to: Maya Azucena; and Fame Games Regular rotational airplay went to Track of the Month Winner - "Bound To Crash" by Venice Maki!


Reigning Track of the Week Winners: All Day Sucker from Los Angeles, CA USA with their general rock track "Rub It In"
