Memory Tracks episodes

  • #15: Ramon Ramirez
    Ramon is one of my best friends from college and one of the more knowledgeable music fans I know. He's known for his hot takes, and he didn't disappoint in this episode. Ramon's taste is all over the map, but for this episode, we stayed true to his passion for hip hop and covered some of the greats.
    Ex-Factor - Lauryn Hill
    Guess Who's Back - Scarface (featuring Jay-Z, Beanie Siegel)
    B.O.B. - Outkast
    1 hr 4 min
  • #14: Caitlin
    I had never met Caitlin until she stopped by to do a taping as she drove across the country back home to LA. A few weeks prior she had met a friend of mine and listener of the show, who ultimately connected us and encouraged us to tape this episode after realizing our similar interests and passion for music. Then I found out she had a good Bowie story, and of course my curiosity was piqued.
    Modern Love - David Bowie
    Bouncin Around the Room [live version 1994] - Phish
    Verdis Quo - Daft Punk

  • #13: Andy O'Connor
    Andy O'Connor is the most metal guy I know. He's been a good friend since college, and I really enjoyed talking music with him. We explored music's importance in his life, and not just the fact that he's a professional music journalist, but that he first and foremost is a fan of so many types of music itself. This was a fun one!
    Don't Close You Eyes - Kix
    Still Return - Harold Budd and Brian Eno
    Where You Rest Your Head at Night - Planning for Burial

  • #12: Gabby Torres-Soler
    Gabby was an awesome guest, sharing stories of her dad passing down great music, unplanned moments of friendship at music festivals, and finally a really educational introduction to Puerto Rico history and music. I learned a lot from this one, and loved getting to know more about this awesome co-worker and friend.
    Neon Experience - Júniús Meyvant
    Psychic City - Classixx Remix - YACHT
    Ah-Ah/O-No -HéctorLavoe, Willie Colón

  • #11: Sam Baber
    Sam and I share a complete devotion to all things Prince, and our common love of one of the greatest musicians of all time warranted an episode where all 3 songs came from 1 artist. It was wonderful to hear how these songs came to define Sam's growing up in the 80s in the middle of the country. I feel like we could have geeked out for hours on Prince material, and this was only the beginning, but I hope you find new ways to appreciate The Purple One through this episode.
    Dirty Mind - Prince
    Something in the Water (Does Not Compute) - Prince
    The Beautiful Ones - Prince

  • #10: Joy and Matt Wallis (Part 2)
    I don't want to spoil the second half of the Wallis interview, but I can say that this was a very, very special conversation. I truly love these wonderful human beings and appreciate them coming onto the show.
    Hands on the Wheel - Willie Nelson (Matt)
    The Old Kind Of Summer - The Black Heart Procession (Joy)
    Maggot Brain - Funkadelic (Matt)

  • #9: Joy & Matt Wallis (Part 1)
    Approaching my 10th episode, I cheated a bit and decided to do something different. I interviewed two very good friends, who happen to be married to each other, at the same time. Walking into the interview, Joy and Matt did not know what tracks the other had selected. We revealed each track one at a time, ultimately splitting the episode into 2 parts. Here's part 1.
    You Talk Too Much - Run-D.M.C. (Joy)
    I Used to Love H.E.R. - Common Sense (Matt)
    Catch - The Cure (Joy)

  • #8: Michelle Chu
    Not only was Michelle an awesome guest with great selections and stories, she introduced the tradition of PLUR to me (see that Memory Tracks bracelet she made me), which you will have to listen for to learn about yourself.
    On a Good Day - Above and Beyond
    Sky High - Big Gigantic
    The Journey - Tom Misch

  • #7: Chris Wright
    If you ever meet Chris Wright in person, it will only take you a minute to realize he's one of the best dudes there ever was. Chris and I have been going to shows together for years, and he once helped sneak me into Wrigley Field at 1:00 in the morning for a Pearl Jam show. While we don't get into that story, he shares a wide range of music with a few stories throughout his life.
    Ha Ha Ha - Flipper
    One More Bottle - Paw
    Fill in the Blank - Car Seat Headrest
