LISTEN TO THE PLUGGED IN SHOW, EPISODE 169
U2’s Bono once said that “Music can change the world because it can change people.” We at Plugged In would second that. The music we listen to can be deeply influential, sometimes taking a shortcut straight to our emotional core. But the way music can change us is not always good.
Adam Holz leads the Plugged In team in a rollicking conversation on the power of music—making a special stop at the recently held Grammy awards.
And then, while we’re on the subject of power, we switch gears and talk with Emily Tsiao about a powerful, pocket-sized superhero making his return to the big screen this weekend. It’s Ant-Man, of course, and according to Emily, Ant-Man and the Wasp: Quantumania has some surprisingly big problems.
So flip on your listening device, crank it up to 11 and listen to us conversationally jam. And then, add your own voice to ours. Participate in our awesome Name That Movie Contest (where you think of a one-sentence descriptor for a popular film) and win your very own copy of Jonathan McKee’s book Parenting Generation Screen! (See official contest rules at the end of this blog.) You can submit your entries—or just chime in with your own thoughts on the episode—on Facebook, Instagram or via email ([email protected]). And be sure to get your contest entries in by Feb. 20.
