Katie, Emma, and Jay have been listening to The Killers since they were little—members of the first generation to truly grow up with the band. Now in their twenties, these three ladies have found that the love they hold for their favorite band has only grown over time. On the Killersluts podcast, they take a look at the band’s discography while considering the influence of the 21st century, classic literary tropes, music theory, and the history of the band. But the main goal is to make each other laugh.

The Killersluts take a dive into This Is Your Life to discuss Candy and her hair, class inequality, and the sound that Ronnie makes halfway into the song. Be warned: this episode was rife with technical difficulties, and by the time the recording had started, we had gone crazy. Enjoy!

Recorded on January 24th, 2024, we talk about Somebody Told Me while riding the high of scoring tickets to the Vegas residency. Needless to say, things get a little crazy. Topics include: behind the scenes of the music video, the entirety of Sawdust being played at this club, and who exactly Brandon is breaking his back over. (Spoiler alert: it's me.)

In this episode, we lose touch with reality and imagine what it must have been like to be a 27-year-old Brandon Flowers immediately after his very own sophomore slump (not that we think that of Sam's Town). Sit back and relax as we ramble on yet again about how Day & Age is a metaphor for the seven stages of grief.

On this episode of KSP, we play in the space of Andy You're a Star. Imagine you're a loser in a small town and you have a huge crush on the most popular guy in school. You can't help but notice that your favorite jock hasn't shown up at school today and--wait. Who is that in his car?
Katie, Emma, and Jay really like The Killers. Some might even say they’re sluts for ‘em.
You wouldn't expect the Grammy-nominated indie-synth-pop-glam-heartland-rock band The Killers to have a substantially large online following comprised of people aged 15-30, but they do. Best friends Katie, Emma, and Jay all met online thanks to their love of the band and have decided to share that love with the world at large. This decision was made to honor the fact that teenage girls have been the deciding factor in what is popular and successful since the time of The Beatles, yet are so often ridiculed for unapologetically loving their favorite bands.

The Killersluts Podcast is a love letter to friendship, deep cuts, stan twitter, looking too deeply into things, and making stupid jokes about what you love with who you love.
