Listen, we are doing Odessey and Oracle by the Zombies and it is basically like paul macartney wrote each song. Its a wild album with some fun bits and one of the worst songs we have ever heard.

We talk about talking about jobs, Aaron makes mistake or something, and we revisit some classic Rob Bits. 

Next week we are forced to cover Kanye 808 and Heartbreaks. 

Join Rob and his co-hosts as they revisit the legendary Sly and the Family Stone with a repost of their deep dive into the groundbreaking album Stand! This episode is packed with funky grooves, unexpected tangents, and a whole lot of fun. Robert, Russell, and Aaron break down timeless tracks like "I Want to Take You Higher," "Everyday People," and "Sing a Simple Song," while exploring the rich history of this genre-defining band. But don’t expect a typical music review—our hosts often get sidetracked with hilarious, off-the-wall discussions. From random Scooby-Doo references to deep dives into Scatman John’s life (yes, we went there), to heated debates on the right way to shift on your keyboard, this episode goes everywhere.

Expect a mix of serious music analysis and totally absurd pop culture tangents. We cover the influence of Sly and the Family Stone on funk, rock, and even hip-hop, while laughing about how NBA Jam soundbites might have been inspired by their funky grooves. We also touch on Lady Gaga’s impact, discuss the unforgettable Chumbawamba, and take some time to wonder if Sly’s untold story is destined for an Oscar-worthy biopic. I mean, it’s coming, right? We’ll probably get a nomination for this podcast if that happens.

Whether you’re here for the deep dive into Sly’s genius or just want to hear us go off on Chumbawamba and the Scatman, you’ll get it all. Robert, Russell, and Aaron may not be music experts, but we sure know how to have fun—and we know the impact of Stand can't be overstated. Tune in, laugh along, and remember: If Scatman John can do it, so can you!

Listen,

For some of us, the summer is a time where we can get that work done around the house that we need to. For some of us, it gets busy on the weekends so we can't record. 

In either case, we wanted to honor Sly Stone and Brian Wilson this week by re releasing their episodes so this week is a

Next week we go to Miami and listen to the long long live classic "Sam Cooke: Live at the Harlem Square Club"

You've got a golden ticket so come and spread out on the bed and listen as the Beck Did it Better Gang talk bachelor party memories as we beg for a party. We talk artists who took a dip, what conversations Aaron's facewash is starting at a party, and we get DOs and DON'Ts about seeing an NBA playoff game. Matt is having a gay old time shopping online and Russell tells us how someone having a boyfriend is NOT a rejection. 

Then we delve into an album we found out we LOVED and talk skiing with Willie, songs about another woman, and we listen to one of the worst Beach Boys songs I have ever heard. Then we talk about LIMP body parts.
