Hey Steel Shank!

Camping trip with the family this past weekend. Had some leftover ground chuck already thawed out, lettuce, tomato, and onion presliced and some cooked bacon. Threw a few patties on the grill after work and fried up an egg. Add some 3 pepper colby jack cheese and some jalapeños and it stacked up real nice.

I once was a hardcore sweet relish hater but now I love it. It's hard to explain. The Scorpions said it best.

Yes.  Anytime you can explain something related to this thread with a Scorps video YOU DO IT

Not food related, but both Scorpions and "outlandish conspiracy theory" related, which I believe there is a strong overlap of appreciation among posters on this thread.

New Podcast Explores Whether the Scorpions Hit ‘Wind of Change’ Was Written by the CIA

Eight-episode documentary series from journalist Patrick Radden Keefe to premiere on Spotify

A new podcast, Wind of Change, will explore the tantalizing possibility that Scorpions’ 1990 power ballad of the same name was actually written by the CIA as a piece of late Cold War propaganda.

The show is hosted by New Yorker journalist Patrick Radden Keefe and all eight episodes premiere May 11th on Spotify. It is a joint project co-produced by Crooked Media and Pineapple Street Studios.

As Keefe recounts in a new trailer for the podcast, the story goes that Scorpions wrote “Wind of Change” after participating in a landmark concert in Moscow in 1989 with other hair metal heavyweights like Bon Jovi and Mötley Crüe.

“Wind of Change” was a huge hit in the United States and across Europe, and its arrival lined up perfectly with the fall of the Berlin Wall and the eventual collapse of the Soviet Union. But, Keefe says, for the past 10 years he’s been dogged by a rumor a friend shared with him: That “Wind of Change” was actually written by the CIA to encourage change throughout the Soviet Union.

In a statement via Deadline, Keefe said of the podcast: “It’s a story that stretches across musical genres, and across borders and periods of history, so it was important to me that you hear the music, and the accents and the voices, and judge for yourself who might be lying and who is telling the truth. I’ve had so much fun pursuing this crazy story over the course of a year, exploring the dark byways of Cold War history and doing nearly a hundred interviews in four countries with rockers and spies. I can’t wait to share it with the world.”

Well, cut to the chase?  Was it, or was it not?

And what was Hasselhoff's role in all of that, other than to be freaking AWESOME?
