Mixtape shows are funny (beyond whatever shenanigans actually happen during the taping itself): you tend to think about the songs you're going to add to the show via the unique prism of that song's application to a given theme. For our Labor Day Mixtape Show, we decided (cleverly? You decide-) that we'd bring to bear songs specifically about Work, Birth (or Babies) and/or British Parliament (though that Labour has a U in it). Who knows if it works, but it sure does make the searching and ensuing chatter greater than dull. Pull up your favorite chair, grab the beverage of your choosing, and hold on. Also, We've created a playlist for this mixtape so that you can enjoy all of the songs in their entirety. You can check that out on Spotify or on Apple Music. ##In This Episode:## R.E.M. - Finest Worksong Dolly Parton - 9 to 5 The Beatles - Birthday Me First and the Gimme Gimmes - Isn't She Lovely They Might Be Giants - Seven Days of the Week (I Never Go To Work) Eddie Rabbitt - Driving My Life Away Loverboy - Working For The Weekend Spoon - The Agony of Laffitte Huey Lewis and the News - Working For A Living Sam Cooke - Chain Gang Donna Summer - She Works Hard For The Money Sex Pistols - God Save The Queen
