musical_groups = [

    ["John Lennon", "Paul McCartney", "Ringo Starr", "George Harrison"],
    ["Salt", "Peppa", "Spinderella"],
    ["Rivers Cuomo", "Patrick Wilson", "Brian Bell", "Scott Shriner"],

    ["Axl Rose", "Slash", "Duff McKagan", "Steven Adler"],
    ["Run", "DMC", "Jam Master Jay"],
]
# Your code here
lst = []
name = []
for i in range(len(musical_groups)):
    if i%2 !=0:
        lst.append(musical_groups[i])
    for j in lst:
        for k in j:
            name.append(k)

print(name.)

To use "join" on a list you apply the method to a string containing the desired separator, and pass the list as an argument. For example, if you had a list named "cakes" and wanted to print them all out separated by a hyphen and spaces:

print(" - ".join(cakes))
