April 16, 2025Episode 202 - Sometimes You've Gotta Hear an Album in the Sunshine
In this episode, I talk about music from Matt Berry, Mumford & Sons, Elton John & Brandi Carlile, and Coheed & Cambria. (Lots of "&" bands!) I also touch on the movie Empire Records (super hot topical!) and the latest episode of Doctor Who. It's a little shorter than a typical episode, but no less fun! Enjoy!

April 08, 2025Episode 201 - Just Shou of a Yeyer
IT HAS BEEN WAY TOO LONG!!! It's nice to be doing episodes again!
In this one, I'm talking about a bunch of music that I haven't talked about yet, from Post Malone (surprise!), Patterson Hood, Jason Isbell, Rufus Wainwright, Bob Mould, Japanese Breakfast, and My Morning Jacket. It's a fun return to form, and I hope you dig it! So dig it!

March 01, 2025Episode 200(!) - The FAB 15 Songs with Numbers in Their Titles
Can you believe we're at episode #200?!? Very appropriate that it should be a Fab 15, and that the list should be "Songs with Numbers in Their Titles!" Sometimes things just line up. As always, your Papa Dave and Uncle Derek are bringing you the goods! This is a fun and somewhat concise talk, and I think you'll love it. Check it out!

February 20, 2025Episode 199 - Comeda Dromey
In this episode I talk about music from Guided By Voices, Loudon Wainwright III, and the Twin Peaks soundtrack, then my recent viewing of (sigh) Cop Out and the SNL 50th Anniversary show. Then I talk about and play a new guitar I bought for a little bit. There's something for...well not everybody...but some people! Enjoy!
