2021 is halfway done, so we look back at our favorite tracks and albums from the first half of this year.

The summer of 2020 was a difficult one filled with quarantine and turmoil. We're hoping in 2021 the summer will get us back to roadtrips and outdoor activities. To get in the spirit, we have assembled playlists to make up your summer soundtrack.

We know the size of the Guided By Voices catalog can be intimidating. In this episode, we discuss the band and assemble playlists to help you get initiated to the works of Robert Pollard and his cohorts.

We preview Record Store Day 2021 and also reminisce about favorite purchases from past RSDs (with some sidebars on 8-track tapes and such).

Prince would turn 62 on June 7th. To celebrate his birthday, Rudy returns as we go head to head and draft songs from the catalog of the Purple One.

In celebration of Robert Zimmerman's (perhaps better known as Bob Dylan) 80th birthday, we created playlists with our favorite Dylan songs from the 1980s.

In our third edition of LOTD Revisionist History, we take a journey through "A Journey Through the Secret Life of Plants" by Stevie Wonder. 

A long overdue episode centered on a band we love. We create playlists featuring album tracks, b-sides and rarities by Radiohead.

We're not discussing novelty songs or even comedy songs, but these songs and writers can really find our funny bones. Featuring: Bob Dylan, Jonathan Richman, Modern Lovers, Beck, David Berman, Harry Nilsson, Magnetic Fields, Hamilton Leithauser, The Replacements, Courtney Barnett, Robyn Hitchcock and more. 

We take a deep dive into a mutually beloved album, Iggy Pop's 1977 classic "Lust for Life."
