Smile (S4.Ep5)

Time to grab those harmonicas and join Sean Rashkis and I as we establish podcast continuity with the song “Smile,” debate the intelligence of bass players, and fail to mention that ‘sonrisa’ is the Spanish translation…

Friend of the podcast, John Farrar (https://soundcloud.com/liveon4legs), returns to gush about “In My Tree,” decipher more mystery lyrics, and tell me I’m wrong about VITALOGY…

Who You Are (S4.Ep3)

Today, we bring back guest Dave Chojnacki to remember the first taste most of us got from the album NO CODE, “Who You Are,” cussing in radio songs, and lyrical anomalies…

Hail Hail (S4.Ep2)

We welcome guest Joel Bakker, and examine the standout NO CODE track “Hail, Hail,” ponder the masochism of nostalgia, and commit the cardinal sin of misquoting The Simpsons…

Sometimes (S4.Ep1)

We open up the NO CODE season with Randy Sobel (https://soundcloud.com/liveon4legs) to try to fit the title of the song “Sometimes” into conversation as many times as possible, shout-out Bob Ross, and make predictions…

Out Of My Mind (S3.Ep18)
