Let try this again shall we... (Nick says sorry)

Not for nothing, but it’s the sixth of February and none of us have any idea if Phish is coming anywhere near us this summer. No dates. No cities. No poorly cropped poster to analyze. Just vibes and calendar anxiety.

So Matt and Nick are not taking this lying down. Well, technically they are sitting down, but they are digging in anyway. Today’s focus is summer tour openers. The good ones. The weird ones. The ones that quietly tell you exactly what kind of tour you’re about to get if you know how to listen.

Also, the Jazz Mandolin Project played Boston last night and that deserves its own space. We will absolutely talk about that on Monday.

Until then, stay warm. Stay patient.
Soup Can?!!?

Is it odd that we still don’t know when or where Phish is playing this summer? Maybe. But this is that perfect stretch of the new year where anything feels possible and the summer tour announcement could drop at any second.

Will they play near you? Will they play near me? Will they ever play sanity again? Hard to say. Only time will tell. Or Trey. If we could just get him to return our calls.

So today on Insuphishient we start a brand new game. When will it end? Spoiler alert. You already have all the clues.

Hate it or love it, everything eventually comes to an end. And as Phish played one song, they jammed another. As any good detective knows, the jam never lies. That was the final hurrah.

Matt says he would never go. Nick says he would gladly be your plus one. Trey supposedly said, “Whatever you do, take care of your shoes.” Who knows if any of that is true. Truth is slippery down there.

Either way, Mexico 2026 is officially in the books. The bags are unpacked. The wristbands are coming off. And now there’s a long, long stretch of calendar standing between you and Sphere. Thank the gods of rock you’ve got Nick and Matt to help fill the gap, keep the feeling alive, and say the quiet parts out loud.

Let’s rock.

Phish has the first two shows of 2026 in the books and right out of the gate things are already bending. Each night brought a debut. One night slipped in a little bust out just to keep everyone honest.

The waves are there. You can feel them and hear them. They’re showing up in the playing, in the pacing, the lyrics, the Song titles, in the way things are connecting across nights. The turtle in the clouds, on the other hand, is nowhere to be found. Make of that what you will.

Matt and Nick take the only approach that makes sense. Pick a song from night one or night 2 in each spot it was played.  Mix and Match in Mex.... 

So the question is already on the table. Is this the best Mexico run Phish has ever had. Tune in and then you tell us.

Matt and Nick are in Mexico, sitting on a beach, recording a podcast about Phish being in Mexico. Which means this episode is happening inside itself. No filter. No distance. Just sand, sun, and two guys trying to describe a place while actively living in it.

There’s a James Taylor calm to the whole thing. That “nobody’s in a rush, everybody knows why they’re here” feeling. The days blur together. The nights stretch out. The ocean keeps time better than any watch. Phish is nearby doing Phish things, and Insuphishient is doing exactly what it’s always done. Talking it through. Letting it breathe. Not trying to control it.

This one isn’t about analysis or hot takes. It’s about location, headspace, and that strange comfort that shows up when the music and the setting line up just right. A podcast as a postcard. From Mexico. About Mexico. While you’re somewhere else wishing you were here.

Today on Insuphishient we’re heading back to May 1992. Boston. A younger world. Smaller rooms. Bigger hair. Same mission.

It’s a little Space Oddity, a little more “ground control" Little less "major jam,” as Matt and Nick float through a time capsule show with wide eyes and zero oxygen. The takes are coming in from orbit, the nostalgia is fully pressurized, and somewhere in the distance you can hear the city humming like it knows what’s about to happen.

So strap in, Pham. This one is a transmission from the past, beamed straight into your ears from Boston in May.

Tune in. We are cleared for liftoff.

Have you ever had a truly stupid idea, like recording a podcast about a band that probably hates that you record a podcast about them? Now imagine taking it one step further and pitching a company that can only exist in one place on earth. The Phish parking lot.

Today on your favorite semi daily Phish talk show, Nick is the shark and Matt is the pitchman. Real money. Fake business. Questionable ethics. Zero due diligence. How bad could it possibly be.

Tune in and find out.

And yes, this means for the second week in a row… BIG MONEY FRIDAY IS BACK.

Check it.

I believe in miracles… because somehow we ended up back at 7/18/2017.

Today on Insuphishient we’re revisiting a night that had that unmistakable glow. (Where you from)The kind of show that walks in the room like it already knows it’s not an NPC. Matt was there (For once) and Nick (watched it from home (as usual)) But they break it down the only way they can, with confidence, and style, and just enough facts to keep it dangerous.

You. Yes you.  Stand still You sexy thing.

Tune in and feel the love.

Warm sun. Cold drinks. Same old chairs.
Phish is headed back to Mexico and the countdown is officially on. and Matt and Nick are Jealous....

In two weeks we’ll be back in that perfect blur where the days move slow, the nights move fast, and the only real plan is to follow the music. It’s that “Mexico” feeling. You can almost hear it already. Something about a little peace, a little escape, and a whole lot of sand in places it shouldn’t be.

New shows in two weeks.
Pack light. Bring your patience.
And get ready to disappear for a few nights.

INSUPHISHIENT is coming with you (in spirit).
