This one is bizarre. Tom needed to talk about this song so we invited Blind Duet alum and friend of the show Wayne Matthews back for a discussion of Gettin Jiggy Wit It by Will Smith. Is this what we normally do? No. Are we glad we did it? Hell yeah. We covered everything from gender roles in New Orleans hip hop to Pringles, and it all had to do with the iconic piece of sonic art that is Gettin Jiggy Wit It.
