Show Notes

On our season two premiere, we talk to the Induct Cyndi Lauper team (Joe, Colin and Bay) about their ongoing campaign to get this 80s icon into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame (sign their petition here). We also have an in-depth discussion of Lauper's life, career and impact on American popular culture. Topics discussed include Lauper's iconic debut album She's So Unusual, her involvement with the then-WWF in the mid-1980s, her ventures into other forms of art (including television, film and theatre) and her political and social activism.
