The following was recorded live at Die Neue Tribüne in Vienna on May 17th 2024, and features accompaniment by piano wizard Diego Collatti (who learned what he was being asked to do like 30 minutes before and absolutely crushed it.) Thank you so much to American Improv and Peter Graff for bringing us out! Now join us on a 100% scientifically accurate journey...

The following was recorded live at The Bourbon Room in Los Angeles, on May 5th 2024. It's got the whole Fam Band (Scott Passarella on keys, Brett Morris on guitar, and Dana Wickens on the stickens)! This one is a classic college tale of doubling down on rash decisions, math in the abstract, and a certain trademarked soft drink. If you don't like this one, you need to get your eyes checked.

We're back and we're trying to figure out how many songs we can actually fit into this thing, and what those songs should be. Also, we get way into the sci-fi weeds. That's writing baby. Sorry about the birds.

The following was recorded live at The Den Theater in Chicago on February 29th 2024. It is accompanied by Sam Scheidler on Keys, and Chris Ditton on drums, both of whom are absolute kings and wizards. This one features a bunch of fish, a dance craze, and throwing a party for your dad. Thank you Chicago, you're OUR KIND OF TOWN!

Note: Unfortunately the drums were not clearly recored to do technical difficulties. Also as you may have guessed by our release order, the live shows in Boston and Detroit were both entirely lost to technical glitches as well (so if you took a secret high quality recoding of either of those shows, let us know.) Apologies, but we had a wonderful time in both those cities, and we hope those who saw them live enjoyed our tales of a bunch of animals in a hot air balloon and Richard Nixon's ghost.

The following was recorded live at City Winery in Atlanta on February 27th 2024. It is accompanied once again by the ever brilliant Eric Gersen. This musical answers the question: "What's the full story behind that jump rope rhyme about cinderella and the snake and the doctors?" Put this one on the list of things Disney can sue us for. Thank you Atlanta for your warm welcome and your incredible rhythm. If we could do it again, we'd keep it all the same. Once upon a time...

TECH NOTE: The recording had some technical difficulties during the first song, but they resolve as the episode continues. Thank you for your understanding.
