Y*ung Th*g. it's the perfect song for the episode but the jackbooted thugs at DMCA and National Music Publishers' Association have been striking down fair use on my episodes left and right. I should have known better than to use a Miami Cuban's songs when talking about this particular topic. also, Y*ung Th*g sacrificed a goat - look it up
