3am Mixtapes: Episode Eighty Three: Jobs (with Gina Loes)

Each week on the 3am Mixtapes podcast, I will share with you the Top Six Songs of a certain subject. The topics can be as general as best supergroups. Some might be a little more... specific. Top Six Songs Translated into a Different Language

This week I am joined by special guest Gina Loes, the lead singer of The Ruffled Feathers, who just put out her own solo EP called Get A Job June. And that, combined with the fact that I recently lost my job (making this a literal "get a job June" for me) means we talked about the Top Six Songs About Jobs!

Let these help you get through the working day:

"Sixteen Tons" by Tennessee Ernie Ford
"I Quit My Job" by Old Man Luedecke
"Capitalism is the Reason" by OK Vancouver OK
"Job Slob" by Brazilian Money
"I Hate Work" by Shred Kelly
"Get A Job June" by Gina Loes
