I'm Natalie Moore. I fell in love with soap operas when I was just five years old, and I still

watch them. Their television's longest scripted series and have zero reruns. Now let me tell you,

soap operas aren't just some silly art form. They are significant. In this season of making,

Stories Without End from WB EZ Chicago.

Join me as I share how the genre began, their social impact, and why these stories endure.

Listen wherever you get your podcast.

From WB.EZ Chicago, this is Nerdad. I'm Greta Johnson. We did it. We made it to another weekend. And we are in May, no less, which means this Taurus is very happy to welcome you to Taurus season. To celebrate, today's episode is going to be extremely indulgent. It is all about music. Our friend, Kristen Curtis the assistant music director and morning show host at WXPN in Philadelphia. And we asked her to bring us a handful of fun and

maybe just a little bit angry songs that we can rock out to this summer. I would say that this

collection of songs is really joyfully defiant,

you know, in a time when it feels like women's rights are being taken away and not just feels

like, I mean, they are, right? And then you're watching what's happening outside of the U.S.

and things just feel so uncertain. There's, hmm, there is an act of rebellion that I feel like is going on right now. And I just

want to celebrate that no matter where it comes from in the world and the feminine energy that we

can all, all of us benefit from and share with each other. So with joyful defiance in mind,

we are going to start with haters' anthem by the band Infinity Song, which is for siblings,

which is adorable. Yeah, Abraham, Angel, Israel, and Momo Boyd. They're actually kind of new to me as

well. One of my coworkers loaded the song into our library, and I was like, yo, the attitude

in the song is so much fun. It's a great, right? It's a great answer to anybody who doesn't want to go

through the hard work of like searching your soul and writing lyrics and putting yourself out there

in the world and just being like, hey, it's awesome to be vulnerable and to make art. So yeah,

haters' anthem from their album Metamorphosis, which was actually just released in October. So

it's all available now.
