Sometimes pure genius also requires sacrifices in order to push their vision forward.  Throughout rock music’s history this has happened. And in the case of this album, the genius came from a place where no one had even thought to look, and the sacrifice made turned out to really pay off in the end. It's beach boys “pet sounds."

This podcast episode describes the untimely death of pro wrestler Owen Hart, a member of the famous Hart wrestling family from Canada. At WWF’s pay-per-view event, held on May 3rd, 1999, Owen was supposed to make a dramatic ring entrance as his character, The Blue Blazer. The grappling hook used to support him was not up to code for such feat, which resulted in a large fall all the way to the mat. This was terrible publicity for the WWF, since chairman Vince McMahon had recently been faced with steroid distribution chares just seven years prior to this event. Owen Hart was a well-respected performer in the ring, as well as an admired man in his personal life. His widow, Martha Hart, would ultimately settle out of court with the WWF for millions of dollars. This led to high-level live entrances at wrestling events to be permanently banned by the company, following the accident.
