Andy Frasco's World Saving Podcast

A call from his manager clues Andy into some good news for the band (& some REALLY good news for the German swinging community). We check in with our listenership to see how everyone's doing. And on the Interview Hour we welcome back the Obi-Wan to our Skywalker: Dave Schools! Andy and Dave go deep to talk on the legacy of Neal Casal, and discuss the new compilation album honoring his music and his enduring influence on us all. Dolav joins us to talk sports in a calm, cool, & collected manner. It's EP 148 yo.

The band is down a bassist and a drummer but this rollercoaster ain't stopping; not even when the Halloween Sunday Scaries hit. Gerlach nominates Shawn Eckels as president and Andy agrees that a pay raise is in order ($30 sound ok?). And on the Interview Hour we welcome golden voiced, Texan singer/songwriter, Paul Cauthen! Discussions on health, drugs, and the space between those two abound. Shawn sings a song about truckers. PSA: Don't pour whiskey into your electric pianos. This is EP 147

Andy and Nick take some time to give Arkansas a little love- not just for the 6am bars, but also for how easy it is to be a manwh0re there. Self-control is important! And on the Interview Hour, we welcome new friends, Wes & Tommy from Moon Taxi! They talk about the mutual love we share for the Howard Stern show, the music they've scored syncs on, and how hard it is to go thru the world being so darn pretty (they're great, y'all). Andy & Shawn sing a song extolling the joys of science. This is EP 145.

Andy and Nick contemplate life, death & the merits of non-theism. Is there just One consciousness shared amongst all living things, like some kind of Socialist Energizer Bunny? Or perhaps we're here to simply help out some rescue dogs and eat mushrooms... But wait! On the Interview Hour, we welcome Melissa Etheridge! We're not worthy. Stay tuned till the end for a very special edition of some spirited (read: DRUNK) sports yelling with our brother-in-Jazz, Dolav. This is EP 144.

We'll be old men and old women; until the end, let's be friends." This is EP 143, my friends.

Andy and co-host Nick Gerlach finally conclude who the hot guy in the band is (spoiler alert: it's our boy, Beau). Plus: inspiring words of wisdom and (helpful) discouragement from Nick.

There's more to tour life than blown tires. This is EP 142.
