  • 170 - Close To Death
    This week, we talk about loop pedals, the Black Eyed Peas, and the majestic human (and their delicious teeth!). Plus, we play a brand-new game called 30 Under 30, inspired by Forbes' yearly list, and as always, we play an exciting round of That Sounds Good, What's That About?

    Hooray For Me: Antarctigo Vespucci
    FEATURE TRACK:
    Antarctigo Vespucci are a really killer band comprised of Chris Farren from Fake Problems and Jeff Rosenstock from Bomb The Music Industry! They've just released their first LP Leavin' La Vida Loca, and they're kind enough to let you download it for free. They're even cool enough to use a Creative Commons license, which means we can share it with you on our show. These kinds of things are hard for musicians to do, so if you dig it, let them know, or donate something if you can, or order yourself a physical copy of the album.

  • 164 - We Are Really Aliens (feat. Tom Gilmour!)
    This week, we can't do the podcast, because we're out in space. However, the two of us, plus intrepid explorer Tom Gilmour, have an important broadcast pertaining to the results of our mission, and thankfully, it's not that different to the show. For instance, we still play 12 Angry Men & a Baby, plus That Sounds Good, What's That About? and of course, as usual, we have our minds warped by nerve gas and we turn into aliens. Wait, what?
