EPISODE #118

Ed Sheeran and Justin Bieber put this question to the test in their new song “I Don’t Care.” The track takes us inside the head of an antisocial party hopper, who’d rather be back home with his lover. Nate and Charlie investigate how the songwriters works that message into their music and speak with Ross Golan about Ed Sheeran’s songwriting brilliance.
