Dr. Zemke opens the door into the tight community of the Juggalo. Once a niche subculture boasting 20,000 strong festivals and their own brand of soda, now a smaller presence still exhibiting influence on mainstream rap. But who is the 'juggalo'? Is it... all of us?

This morning we're talking Math Rock, Dr. Kirsten Zemke's here to educate us and find a facet of music that will shock the listeners. Unfortunately for Kirsten, the listeners are very familiar with this genre, from Don Caballero's Fire Back About Your New Baby's Sex, to Giraffes? Giraffes!'s When The Catholic Girls Go Camping, the Nicotine Vampires Rule Supreme, and Hella's Biblical Violence.
