- O'Brien & Doug S5E15 [February 24, 2022 The People Who Don't Suck Hall of Fame]

We also give an update on the status of the "Fan Vote" for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and consider petitioning a name change....and we climb the Wall of Tunes for an 80s rock stalwart who broke wide open with a cover song. #hotelcalifornia #eagles #rockhall #greatwhite

On this episode we celebrate, lament and wallow in the confusion that is the 2022 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame nominees. We also chat with our friend Ryan Cyr, an accomplished musician who just may be O'Brien's twin...metaphysically speaking anyway. Plus, we climb the Wall of Tunes to spotlight a band from the 90s whose song dominated pop radio. #rockhall2022 #ryancyr #loslonelyboys

Send us Fan Mail
On this first episode of 2022 we talk about heritage artists selling the rights to their song catalogs and cashing in late in life. We've discussed it before but we go a bit more in depth with a few of the latest additions to the list. We found an old cassette of some never-before-heard original songs and we climb the Wall of Tunes for a relatively unknown artist in the grand scheme of things, but he's very well known in the contemporary folk arena. #2022 #happynewyear #cliffeberhardt

On this, our final episode of 2021, we discuss what happened over Christmas, we tackle widely known band breakups, we play an original song that may have started it all, climb the Wall of Tunes for a 90s band that neither of us like very much, and bury this year in the dirt and look to 2022 with a "stern gaze and folded arms". #christmas #NYE #bandbreakups #commoncrossing #countingcrows

About O'Brien & Doug
From the publisher's feed
Doug and Brian have known each other since junior high school. They didn’t become “O’Brien & Doug” until their widely popular radio show polluted the airwaves of their local rock station. Brian…
was "Chris O'Brien" on the air and had been in broadcasting for 25 years and Doug....hadn’t. They spoke to listeners on the air about what was important (Who was the best rock drummer? Should 80s movies be required for all high school students?). The magic continues in the O'Brien & Doug Podcast!
