On today’s show, Dallas Morning News pop music critic Hunter Hauk and News staff writer Brandon Formby help us overanalyze things. Formby attempts to explain “Deez Nutz” and how Snoop Dogg and Dallas' Central Expressway are involved. Then, the fifth edition of the homegrown indie music festival Gorilla Vs. Bear is this Friday with headliner Jamie xx. We talk about why this may be the smartest indie music showcase being produced today. Next, Podcast Movement, the world's largest podcaster conference hits Fort Worth this weekend. We get a preview with co-founder Dan Franks and talk about the state of podcasting today. Hunter Hauk will also tell us about his new “music-minded” podcast, "Listening." Finally, are introverts the new extroverts? A story in The New York Times style section declares being introverted is cool — and apparently big business. We break it down and even do our own Myers-Briggs Type Indicator exams.
