We pick what bands to see at Kilby Block Party this year. We discuss the bassist from Weezer's wife's many amazing adventures. I think I forgot to put in a song somewhere, sorry

Why do we even bother anymore? Listening to music, that is.

Music: Is it only for dumb people? Who should open for Oasis? Joe describes Chappell Roan’s music to Paul. Paul pitches Joe on some new bands. I almost called this one “Werewolf Like Me.”

After analyzing the influences of indie rock act Pouty (who we mistakenly misgeolocated to Philly... they're from Cali) and chatting about some ill-considered arena tours, we get to the matter at hand: recapping our three days at the Kilby Block Party music festival in Salt Lake City. Show reviews of LCD Soundsystem, Joanna Newsom, Courtney Barnett, Vampire Weekend, Guided By Voices, Death Cab / Postal Service (again), Belle & Sebastian, Santigold, and many more.

We predicted SP's new guitarist, but I was too slow putting the episode up. We do a deep dive on rock criticism via Robert Christgau.

We discuss the slow but steady downfall of Pitchfork, the seminal music publication of our generation. The closing track is by Cyann & Ben, the kind of strange and moving indie rock that was only on anyone's radar because it was the featured review on the site.

Light your yeule log, the WeezerSP convergence has finally happened! We discuss the new Beatles and why the band tempts old guys like us, then go through the Pitchfork end-of-year lists.

We welcome Mark, our first guest who *isn’t* painfully white, to help us pronounce “acai bowl” correctly. The three of us discuss the Death Cab / Postal Service anniversary show we attended, the Jann Wenner controversy, going out of your mind in D.C., and (of course) the Pumpkins.

King Ralph II, K-pop revelations in McDonald’s, gay Netflix romcoms, 80’s songs about ironically bombing abortion clinics, 18 months of music purgatory ending in Blur, and never having sex again: It’s a T-Bone and the Beast episode!

TikTok is for the guys. Find us there: @savagebeastpod. We chat about Ukrainian rock music, Ukrainian ambient music (Heinali), new streams of content, ICECOLDBISHOP, our love for our fake listeners, and many other topics. But we do not talk about Youth Lagoon.
