    The Legends We Lost in 2025 and Why Their Music Still Holds
    Dec 24 2025
    2025 gave us headlines, hits, and heartache — but as the year winds down, we take a moment to remember those we lost. In this special tribute episode of One vs. The Feed, we honor the artists who shaped the soundtrack of our lives and left us this year. From soul to rock, folk to pop — these voices weren't just heard, they were felt. This episode remembers:
    • Roberta Flack — the soft-spoken soul who moved the world
    • Ozzy Osbourne — the metal icon who was more heart than hell
    • Brian Wilson — the harmonizing genius behind the Beach Boys
    • Ace Frehley — the cosmic force of KISS
    • Sam Moore — the soul man who sang from the center of the fire
    • Peter Yarrow — the folk poet who made peace a melody
    Their stories. Their music. Their legacy.
    We don’t just remember them… we celebrate them. Subscribe, share, and play it loud. Here's to the legends — and the soundtrack they left behind.

  • Heart Took the Hits Seriously When Others Didn’t

    Heart Took the Hits Seriously When Others Didn’t
    Dec 16 2025
    Heart wasn’t supposed to survive three decades of changing trends, but they did more than survive — they dominated. From the raw power of Magic Man and Barracuda, through the polished force of their 80s rebirth with These Dreams and Alone, this episode breaks down how Ann and Nancy Wilson kept a rock dynasty alive in eras that erased almost everyone else. We cover the hits, the reinventions, the controversies, and the moments that shaped their legacy. If you’ve ever wondered how Heart managed to thrive when entire genres collapsed around them… this is the story.

  • The Most Overplayed Song That Somehow Still Works (Quick Cut)

    The Most Overplayed Song That Somehow Still Works (Quick Cut)
    Dec 11 2025
    In this Christmas edition, we dive into the real story behind Wham’s Last Christmas — the melody George Michael wrote in a spare bedroom at his parents’ house, arranged and performed almost entirely by himself, then gave away in charity royalties without ever asking for credit. Generation after generation kept rediscovering the song until it stopped being a single… and became a holiday tradition. And to show just how far it traveled, we run through five of the biggest artists who recorded their own versions — Taylor Swift, Kelly Clarkson, Ariana Grande, Jimmy Eat World, and Gwen Stefani — each adding their own stamp to a timeless classic.
