## Key points

- Three classic rock songs are pitched as alternatives to podcasts.
- Pink Floyd’s “Money” takes on the role of wealth in society.
- Heart’s “Barracuda” was sparked by an inappropriate question.

## Summary

The article argues that three classic rock songs can entertain and inform listeners as well as, or better than, podcasts. It presents them as a way to reflect on the world, money and journalism through music.

The songs are Bob Dylan’s unnamed track about seeing beyond life’s apparent comfort, Pink Floyd’s 1973 song “Money”, and Heart’s “Barracuda”. The article says “Money” explores the significance of wealth, while “Barracuda” grew out of an inappropriate question put to Ann Wilson by a music writer.
