As you'll hear, this one was recorded right as we pulled away from Murphy's Pub in Seattle, our last date on the tour… and thus began our 36 hour drive home.

ALSO we have the second half of our interview with John and Matt Werner of the Sassanachs. Check out last's week episode if you missed the first part:

SlapperCast Episode 342: "Stadium Show in a Shoebox"

This episode was recorded in two bits. The first is a vancast segment recorded on Monday, August 18th, as we drove from Montana to Oregon, shortly after dropping Frank off at the airport.

The second segment is a SassyCast recorded in Omaha a week earlier with our good friends Matt and John Werner of… you guessed it, the Sassanachs. This conversation will be split into two parts across two episodes.

Among other sassy things, the brothers tell us about their first band The Screaming Idiots, and the Sassanachs’ upcoming Christmas single “I Won’t Remember Christmas This Year.”

SlapperCast Episode 341: "Sympathy Eighty"

We have a special guest this week: our dear friend JAY HOELLEN, whom we've talked about many times in the past (most recently last week in Episode 340). We had a great chat with Jay right before we headed to our gig at Buck's Bar & Grill in Venice, NE.

The opening segment was recorded a few days later with Frank in Hamilton, Montana, a few hours before our final performance at Bitterroot Celtic Games & Gathering.

SlapperCast Episode 340: "Mister Snooze"

This one was recorded a week ago as we traveled from Weston to Omaha. We share stories about the legendary Jeff Quinn and the deep roots we’ve grown in Omaha because of him.

Along the way we recap our weekend at O’Malley’s Pub, and the strange circumstances that lead to us wondering whether or not Patrick was still alive.

Thanks to Duane Schrag for the video of us performing at O'Malley's!

SlapperCast Episode 339: "The Most Important Date of the Year"

Episode 339 one was recorded during the first two days of a nearly three-week tour.

First as we drove to Wichita, KS, for our gig at Barleycorn's, and then the next day (Paddy's birthday), as we drove to Weston, MO.

We marvel at how little this band complains, and share our favorite and least favorite things about touring.

Also at the beginning and the very end there's a short clip of Patrick receiving a piece of birthday cake from the staff at O'Malley's Pub last night after the show.

This one was recorded on the road to Nacogdoches for our first-ever gig at Fredonia Brewery (which was a GREAT time, by the way). We talk about our recent show at the Continental Club Houston, and the professional photo shoot we did recently with Krystiee Lee. ALSO: Turbo's recent victory in court.

SlapperCast Episode 337: "Free Stewie"

This one was recorded on the road to Beaumont with our special guest star: Turbo's eldest son Kaiden (a.k.a. Stewie). On the docket this week: arguing about ice cream, songs we should cover… PLUS if we had 20 minutes to play for the world… what songs would we choose?

This one was recorded during the drive home from Weston, MO. We talk about stage fright—how it still hits hard, how we deal with it, and how the nerves never fully go away.
