Ideas for next week's show: discussion of plagarism. We were figuring that we would talk about the subject as it relates to the average student. So things like online "paper mills", anti-plagarism web databases, etc.
Musical ideas: A nice compliment for the show would be pairs of songs, one original song and another that illegally sampled or stole from that song. For example, we would play "Under Pressure" by David Bowie and Queen and then "Ice Ice Baby" by Vanilla Ice. Or Rick James and MC Hammer. You get the idea.
