What up y’all – J. Solo here with The Play It Loud Podcast, and today we’re takin’ a sick day for our sanity!

We’re breaking down the no-nonsense anthem “Callin’ Sick (Of Your Sh*t)” by Quarter Brown & The Dollar Thrills — a funky, AI-generated 1960s-style jam straight from the minds at Almost Vinyl. This track captures the burnout, the backlash, and the boss battles we’re all too familiar with.

🎙️ In this episode:

😷 The Guilt Trip: Why we feel bad for taking care of ourselves

🧍 The Dehumanizing effect of toxic workplaces

🔥 The Rebellion: When you’re not sick, just DONE

😒 Manager Manipulation and fake concern

⏳ The "Never Right Time" myth of rest

🤥 Faking Sick, telling the truth through lies

🎤 The Mic Drop Moment: Saying “nah, I’m good.”


💬 Ever wanted to call in and never come back? This one’s for you.

👇 Sound off in the comments:
What’s YOUR “Callin’ In Sick” moment? We wanna hear it.
