## Resource

So, yeah, maybe we're doing a thing where the very top answer of said thing is a thing that we're not gonna talk about. That's cool, right? This episode of the Fairly KickAss Podcast is a Rush episode, short for "Mt. Rushmore". Top four, in any order. Got it? Good. The topic? Artists that defined the 1960s. Now you see why we had to disqualify one out of hand. Because, truthfully, there is one single answer to this question. One band that, if ommitted, would be disingenuous at best. And that band, of course, is Herman's Hermits The Beatles. That effectively makes this a Rush+1, a top 5 (but not a capital-T Top 5, that's a different thing). We discuss, we deliberate, we lobby, and eventually we come up with a combined list for all three of us. Were we right? We think so, but sometimes we're wrong! Tell us how we're wrong, we beg, we plead: Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/fairlykickass.bsky.social Instagram: https://instagram.com/fairlykickass TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@fairlykickass Threads: https://www.threads.net/@fairlykickass Website (for Ride-Along Playlists): https://fairlykickass.com/ Next week: what makes you want to start a band? We'll tell you what scratches that itch for us. We hope this episode scratches your itches in the meantime. And as always: Keep. Kicking. Ass.
