Scratch a Track: Music Review and Commentary Podcast · The Dude and Grimm Show

Did Billy Bragg answer Oliver Anthony and the Rich Men North of Richmond?

·16 min·1 clip

The host argues the most radical thing about Oliver Anthony's song is its refusal to be a political weapon.

The hosts of Scratch a Track analyze two viral songs: Oliver Anthony's 'Rich Men North of Richmond' and Billy Bragg's response track. They discuss their initial assumptions about the songs' politics, why Anthony insists his work isn't partisan, and whether Bragg's call for unionization offers a real solution or just more critique.
