🔄 Be Kind, Please Rewind! 🔄 We’re bringing back another classic episode from way back in the early days of The DOD45 Show (episode 15 out of 100+ and counting! 🤯) as part of our massive rerun drop—thanks to Spotify pulling a dumb move and terminating our podcast account. So now, we're speed-uploading 3+ episodes a day until they're all back where they belong. 🏃💨

🔥 This one originally aired September 5, 2021, and then got a rewind treatment on May 9, 2023—now combined into one wild ride. Expect zero polish, offbeat pacing, missing co-host moments, Tai still figuring out how to host a show (and draw on camera), and a total lack of our signature theme music. But hey, it’s still a hell of a convo! 😆

🔹 Our guest? The legendary Factor Chandelier 🎧—hip-hop producer extraordinaire, Fake Four staple, and a man with a dog named Pirate (yes, Tai drew him a portrait).

🎤 In this episode:

• Factor’s double album drop (Eastlake & First Storm) after pandemic delays.

🎭 Sophie's Choice Showdowns: 🤔 Ghost Dog or Ghostbusters? 🎤 Killer Mike or Open Mike Eagle? 🎛️ DJ Krush or Cut Chemist? 👕 Hoodie or Bunny Hug? 🎳 Bowling or Biking? 🎵 Beastie Boys or Geto Boys?

🎵 Song Shares:

• "The Partisan" by Leonard Cohen 🎸🇫🇷

• Originally titled "La Complainte du Partisan," this song was adapted by Leonard Cohen and featured on his 1969 album Songs from a Room. It tells the story of a resistance fighter during World War II, blending English and French lyrics to convey themes of struggle and resilience.

• Released in 2016, "No Woman" is a soulful track by Whitney that captures the essence of longing and transition. The song features a blend of falsetto vocals, velveteen brass, and heartfelt strings, creating a wistful yet hopeful atmosphere.

• A collaboration between Kool A.D. and Milo, this track offers a laid-back vibe with introspective lyrics and smooth beats.

• Monica Riskey delivers a nostalgic yet fresh sound in "1969dime," blending modern indie elements with a retro flair.

• Known for their aggressive style, Show Me the Body's "Metallic Taste" combines hardcore punk with experimental elements, resulting in a raw and powerful track.

• This expansive track from P.O.S's album Chill, Dummy features multiple movements, blending hip-hop with experimental sounds to explore themes of existence and self-reflection.
