Chopping it up with the homie Banjer Jack on everything from building guitars, Sacred Harp singing, and backwoods time warps to Destiny's Child, de-normalizing the weird, and the event we all lived through that shall never be forgotten. We also get deep into talking bout God, the church, animism, and what being Christian means to us.

Matt Sini, author and host of Getting Lit, joins us for the second (we missed a year or two) AGACITY ATORDS, where we round up and encapsulate our favorite art and biggest takeaways from the year.

Making Christianity metal again while talking bout the Highlander franchise, especially Yoshiaki Kawajiri's anime interpretation, with special guest Detective Wolfman, host of Bloody Pulp and On the Beat.  

It's the holidays, and we're spending it with the family. The Rare Candy and Agitator boys are in the cave of the red-headed giant chopping it up about Cormac McCarthy's alleged secret muse, Aaron Gwyn, audiobooks counting as reading, the end of cancel culture, aliens from Atlantis, Columbine and Vegas and Sandy (oh, my!), interplanetary travel, Elon Musk, caring vs not caring what other artists think, and more.
