Stub Me Down welcomes in summertime! JW and Skinny go back to their podcast roots and discuss a Goose show from Frederick, Maryland. The fellas hit on late breaking news (despite Skinny’s new rules), the minutiae of live music discourse, and a strong show from a mobile drive-in theater. Good times as always! Thanks for listening!

Episode 7, Season 6 of Stub Me Down Podcast gets emotional! Following a hilarious part 1 of our conversation with TV writer Nate Federman, the fellas get to the stub down, an emotional night at The Sphere in Las Vegas. Nate shares how his feelings shift over the course of this show as he pondered the clinging of fans to musicians, and musicians to music. In the end, the wheel keeps turning, but the questions remain- how do we want to be remembered? Part 2 of 2. Thanks again to Nate Federman, and thanks for listening! 

It’s all subjective, right? Music, tv, or any sort of consumable media (including podcasts). Skinny and JW welcome television writer (and notorious hook up for the elderly) Nate Federman to Episode 6 Season 6 of Stub Me Down Podcast. Nate shares some stories from his time in the writer’s room on The Office and has the fellas rolling on the floor as he describes his hysterical cameo on the show. Nate’s stub down takes the trio to Las Vegas for a show "that had a M Night Shyamalan level story twist in it and was easily the most emotional” he's ever been at a show. Part one of two! Thanks for your time, Nate! 

Season 6 of Stub Me Down Podcast trucks along! Episode 5 features a visit from the Great Wendt- Wook Plus’s own Kevin Hogan. Kev joins Skinny and JW to talk podcasting, interviewing musicians, and pulls a stub from a diverse and interesting (according to JW about a 420 times) Grateful Dead show in 1990. Setlist choices, the role and demise of Brent Mydland, and an extended Dark Star highlight the conversation as SMD finally gets the last of the Wooks to stub us down. Thanks for listening! 

Stub Me Down welcomes in actor, comedian, and improv artist Chris Witaske to the show! We talk all things “The Bear” related and even pick some Phish music that works for the show. Chris explains improv and his love for Phish, and stubs us down on an amazing show from Deer Creek in 2000 that weaves in a killer segment of Moby Dick by Led Zepplin! Come join the fun! Thanks for listening!

Skinny invites Colin, a former student, to the podcast. They talk about what's turning the kids on these days in the jam band world. Colin dives into his playlist, and what he's seeing on the road. Can I live while I'm young! I'm old, so no. Thanks for listening!

Stub Me Down is here to get 2025 started off on a positive note! JW and Skinny conclude their chat with author Benjy Eisen in Episode 3 of Season 6! They finally get to the stub down after an extended discussion of the Grateful Dead and Bill Kreutzmann in part one of this incredibly fun conversation. Benjy's stub takes the guys to the second of a two-nighter at UMass Amherst in 1995, featuring some big jams, rarities, and context about the setlist you might not have heard before! This was a special night, and even Dickie V. got in on the love! Thanks for listening! 

JW and Skinny welcome in author Benjy Eisen for Episode 2 of Season 6, and the conversation was so extensive it had to be broken up into two parts! Benjy gets things started by discussing his relationship with Bill Kreutzmann, spending time with Trey Anastasio during Fare Thee Well, and the passing of Phil Lesh. Amazing stories, incredible energy, and kindness that shines through- part one with Benjy is like eating an oreo cookie. And find out where Skinny and JW go with song two of Theme From the Bottom! Thanks for listening, and Season's Greetings from all of us here at Stub Me Down Podcast! 

Welcome back to Stub Me Down season six! JW and Skinny change things up this season and play a little game called Theme from the Bottom. No news is good news as the fellas discuss a wonderful show from Madison Square Garden during Phish's 30th Anniversary run. As the seasons change, so do we! Thanks for listening!
