“I need the playlist from the DNC Roll Call. And that’s a sentence I never thought I’d say.” is the text that I sent my brother, and I was entirely serious.

Who had “DNC Roll Call Dance Party” on their 2024 bingo card because I seriously, seriously did not. I mean, I’m a political nerd and having the DNC Roll Call playing in the background was not unusual for me.

I was in the kitchen cooking, listening as I gathered ingredients. Occasionally glancing at the TV.

But this was no normal roll call, as I’m sure you’ve heard by now. It was a freakin’ party. It was fun to listen to the excitement and enthusiasm in the voices of those on camera…but once the music hit? The kitchen dancing started. And when I heard the voice of Lil Jon and the crowd erupted? My Millennial self was in it. Sold. Lock, stock, and barrel.
