The DOD45 Show episodes:

March 16, 2025 🎙️ Mopes, Madonna’s Sex Book, and Movie Set Madness – DOD45 Re-Release! 🦌🦉
🔥 Another one from the vault! This Series 2 episode with Mopes (formerly Prolyphic) from the @strangefamousrecords fam originally dropped Jan 23, 2022—back when we were still finding our footing, shaping the DOD45 Show into what it is today. And now, thanks to Spotify pulling a Spotify (aka nuking our entire podcast account for no good reason 🙄), we’re re-releasing two or more episodes a day until every single one is back where it belongs. So hit FOLLOW and buckle up.
🖊️ While Tai sketches a stag with owls tangled in its antlers, he and Adrienne sit down with Mopes to talk about:
💔 The lifelong agony of being a Jets fan (Mopes) vs. a Jazz fan (Tai)
📀 The making of Mopes’ EP & album (yep, this is pre-release talk)
📺 The weird nostalgia of Alf
📚 Madonna’s Sex book—wait, why was this even a topic?
💀 The horrifying reality of accidental deaths on movie sets
🥊 Mike Tyson’s struggles, transformations, and why he’s still terrifying
🎤 Working with Chicago emcee Robust
🎥 Why movie set safety still isn’t taken seriously
✍️ Their favorite lyrics of all time
👀 And of course, the Sophie’s Choice segment made a return! You picking Lady Gaga or Madonna? What about Alfred E. Neuman or Paul Newman? No? Fine—how about Jets or Giants?
💡 DID YOU KNOW?
Before becoming Mopes, he spent over a decade as Prolyphic, dropping gems on Strange Famous Records alongside artists like Sage Francis. Rebranding isn't for the faint of heart, but he made the switch, evolved his sound, and kept it moving like a true artist.

March 13, 2025”I Used to Live Off Candy Bars, Snapples, and Drugs...” 🍬🥤💊 (Series 7, Ep 85 with Candy’s .22 – Reuploaded!)
💀🚨 Spotify tried to kill us, but we won’t stay dead! 🚨💀
In case you missed it the first time around (or because Spotify decided to nuke The DOD45 Show podcast account for no good reason 🤡), we’re bringing back ALL our past episodes—two or more a day until they’re all back up where they belong! Because why? Because big tech is dumb and we don’t quit.
💥 This was originally released May 22, 2024, but now it’s BACK—stronger, uncut, and combined with its bonus “Dish” episode. That means MORE stories, MORE chaos, and MORE of the absurd brilliance that is Candy’s .22 (Existereo of The Shape Shifters & CBS + Barfly aka Barf Loko of Oldominion).
👀 This episode? It’s a free podcast, don’t complain that it’s longer now—just hit pause and come back later. But also, why would you want to?
🎙 What’s Inside:
🔥 No holds barred convo with Candy’s .22—nothing’s off-limits.
🖊 ArtByTai draws a Death to Smoochy-themed piece while the guys unload stories you definitely won’t hear anywhere else.
📝 First concerts, first crushes, first time getting stitches, first motorcycle, first car, first run-ins with the law, worst injuries, worst ways to die, best action stars, favorite cereals… yeah, we cover it ALL.
🤯 DID YOU KNOW?
Candy’s .22’s "Neon Room at the Davenport" was one of their most cinematic releases, featuring production that felt straight out of a noir crime flick. 🎥🔪
Existereo has worked with legends like Busdriver, Awol One, and Pigeon John—and still keeps his rhymes razor-sharp.
Barfly (Barf Loko) isn’t just an MC—he’s a published author 📖. His book “Winding Up Strangers in Bars” is basically this episode in literary form.
🎥 MOVIE RECOMMENDATION:
👨‍✈️ Popeye (1980) – The Robin Williams cult-classic that’s more bizarre and wonderful than people give it credit for. Directed by Robert Altman, featuring an unforgettable Shelly Duvall as Olive Oyl. If you haven’t seen it, you’re missing out. Watch here
🎵 MUSIC RECOMMENDATIONS:
🎧 "Spacious Thoughts" by N.A.S.A – A mind-bending collab between Tom Waits and Kool Keith. You need this in your ears.
🎧 "Let’em Breathe" by Maker & Mestizo – Heavy beats, raw lyrics—this one hits hard.
🎧 DOD45 Luvs ‘Song Share’ Playlist – A constantly updated soundtrack to vibe with.
🛒 Support the Guests & Their Work:
🎵 Candy’s .22 - "Neon Room at the Davenport"

March 13, 2025 🎙️ The Grouch Talks Living Legends Reunion, Felt, & Social Media Lurking | Ep. 72 (Series 6) 🎧
🔥 Back from the grave! No thanks to Spotify’s brilliant decision to terminate The DOD45 Show podcast account (seriously, what was that about? 🤦‍♂️), we’re rereleasing ALL our past episodes at lightning speed—two or more a day until they're ALL back up! So if you missed this gem the first time, or just need another dose of Grouch wisdom, now’s your chance!
Originally aired: Nov. 1, 2023 | Series 6: New format, new graphics, & the debut of "The Dish" 🍽️
🦁 Episode 72 brings you the Mighty Grouch from the legendary Living Legends crew, here to talk about their long-awaited full-length album The Return, their first since 2008’s The Gathering, and to hype up the How the Grouch Stole Christmas tour, featuring Living Legends, Brother Ali, Reverie & DJ Fresh.
For me, this was a full-circle moment—having listened to The Grouch’s music for years, now sitting down for a convo while creating a custom Where the Wild Things Are-inspired piece for him (…featuring some rogue plastic bowling pins. It’ll make sense, trust me.)
🎶 In this episode, we discuss:
✅ His 10-year stint in Maui & how island life shaped his artistry 🏝️
✅ Producing the Slug & Murs’ Felt album: A Tribute to Christina Ricci 🎤
✅ A list of artists he deeply respects, including Erykah Badu, Leon Bridges, Mos Def, Ab-Soul, Slug & more
✅ A social media deep-dive with Sage Francis (via Sage’s Social Media Lurk segment) 👀
✅ Mr. Dibbs drops in to get the truth behind a mysterious backstage Atmosphere Red Rocks photo 🤨
✅ Random but crucial topics like Corey Haim & Corey Feldman, Zion-I, Monty Python, The Thing, Christina Aguilera, Jay Electronica, Blackalicious, Yo Gabba Gabba, and yes… Brutus "The Barber" Beefcake 💈
🎥 Movie: Lost Bullet (2020) – A high-speed French action thriller packed with insane car stunts & a revenge-driven plot. Think Fast & Furious meets The Raid. Watch it if you need an adrenaline rush.
🎵 Song: "Dance" – ESG – A timeless, funk-infused banger from the South Bronx legends ESG. Sampled by Beastie Boys, J Dilla, Wu-Tang, Public Enemy, and even Nine Inch Nails!
💽 Check out the full DOD45 Luvs Song Share playlist on Spotify!
💡 DID YOU KNOW?
🔹 Living Legends once turned down a deal with Interscope Records because they wanted to stay 100% independent. That’s the definition of sticking to your roots.
🔹 The Grouch's first-ever solo album, Don't Talk to Me, dropped in 1995—recorded entirely on a Tascam 4-track.
🔹 Slug from Atmosphere has said that The Grouch was one of his biggest influences in shaping his early music.

March 13, 2025 🎤 BARFLY UNLEASHED: Oldominion, Inhalant & Bukowski Banter | The DOD45 Show (Series 5 Re-Release) 🎬
📢 Spotify did us dirty—straight up terminated The DOD45 Show podcast account for no good reason, wiping out all our episodes. But we’re back at it, re-uploading every single one—two (or more) a day until the archives are fully restored. So if you missed out before, now’s your shot to catch every last banger we dropped. Hit that subscribe button, leave a review, and tell your weird uncle and artsy best friend. We need all the support we can get after this nonsense. 🖕🎧
💥 Originally released March 29, 2023, in Series 5—back when we were hitting our stride, figuring out the perfect structure but still throwing in experiments and wild segments. A huge leap from Series 4, but not quite the well-oiled beast we’ve become post-Series 7.
And this one’s a must-watch because we got to hang out with the anomaly himself—BARFLY! 🦇
If you don’t know, now’s your time to get educated:
🎤 Oldominion | 🎧 Floods | 🎶 Candys .22 | 🔥 Saturday Knights | 🎙️ Norman | 🦉 Nite Owls | 💨 Inhalant
…AND the author of the book that’s been occupying ArtByTai’s wandering mind:
📖 Winding Up Strangers in Bars 🍻
We talked music, the origins of his moniker (spoiler: it wasn’t originally his—Charles Bukowski had dibs first), and why he’s maybe leaning toward Barf Loko these days (but not like the Spaceballs Barf or Cypress Hill’s Loco).
And somehow, Wayne Newton, Olivia Newton-John, and the idea of music returning to an actual cultural experience instead of a soulless cash grab made it into the mix.
✅ Barfly has rocked the mic alongside Onry Ozzborn, Existereo, and Oldominion’s Smoke & Sleep.
✅ Mr. Dibbs (yes, THE Mr. Dibbs) has straight-up told us Barfly is one of his favorite rappers.
✅ Sage Francis crashes this episode to roast Barfly’s rarely-used Twitter account.
✅ Barfly’s got new music on the way under the name Inhalant with Hyena—get hyped!
Oh, and if FMK scenarios featuring Willie Nelson, Craig T. Nelson, and Judd Nelson are your thing, you’re in for a treat. 🎭
So what are you waiting for? We’re over here spinning our Barfly Floods "Temple of Abraxa" CD, feet up on the coffee table, reading Winding Up Strangers in Bars, and waiting for you to click the links and watch this epic episode.

March 13, 2025🔪 Dope Knife, Hip-Hop, Zombie Ants & The Ice-T Collab That Should Exist - The DOD45 Show - Ep. 40
🚨 RERELEASE ALERT! 🚨 Another day, another past episode resurrected from the Spotify Purge of ’24 (great job, Spotify, real forward-thinking move there. 👏👏). But hey, their loss is your gain—because we’re dropping two or more episodes a day until all our classics are back where they belong!
This one originally aired on December 14, 2022, right in the thick of Series 4—a season where we had things dialed in. The format? Locked. The pacing? Nailed. The Mr. Dibbs-produced theme music? Finally in place. We had made huge strides since Series 3… but we still weren’t quite the polished juggernaut we are now beyond Series 7. There were a few tweaks left to make, but at this point, DOD45 was officially in its bag. 🎒🔥
This time around, Tai & Adrienne sat down with the lyrical swordsman himself, Dope Knife (aka Kendrick Mack) while Tai sketched up a roach-and-skull-inspired masterpiece. 💀🐜✏️
🎤 What went down?
🔪 Mack’s latest album, "The Dope One"—released on @fakefourinc—gets the deep dive treatment. 🎶
🔪 The Liberian Civil War forced Mack’s family to flee in the '90s, eventually settling in Savannah, GA. 🌍➡️🇺🇸
🔪 The origins of the “Dope Knife” moniker—how it reflects his grimy side & his approach to hip-hop. 🏚️
🔪 Jeru the Damaja’s massive influence on his style & the lasting impact of boom-bap lyricism. 🎤🔥
🔪 A Dope Knife x Ice-T collab?? We break it down, imagine the possibilities, and wonder why it hasn’t happened yet. 🧊🔪
🔪 A trip into the Scribble Jam archives—Knife shares his regret about missing out on the legendary freestyle battles. 🎤💥
🔪 A random but very necessary discussion about zombie ants and their terrifying reality. 🐜🧟‍♂️
🔪 The state of his political hip-hop podcast, "Waiting on Reparations." 🎙️
💡 DID YOU KNOW?
Dope Knife isn't just a rapper—he's also an illustrator & animator. His visuals are as raw as his bars. 🖌️🎞️
He’s part of The Dope Sandwich crew, an underground hip-hop collective that’s been shaking things up in Savannah for years. 🎛️
"The Dope One" was hailed as one of Fake Four’s hardest-hitting releases of the year—if you haven’t checked it out yet, fix that immediately. 🚀
This convo was fast, loose, and packed with gems—whether it was about hip-hop history, horror movie-level insect facts, or dream collaborations that need to happen ASAP.

March 13, 2025 🎙️Jesse the Tree & the Pigeon Pant Paradox - The DOD45 Show - Ep. 30
🚨 RE-UP ALERT! 🚨 Thanks to Spotify’s ✨brilliant✨ decision to terminate The DOD45 Show podcast account (yeah, we’re calling you out, Spotify 👀), we’re rereleasing all our past episodes—two or more a day—until they’re ALL back where they belong. So, if you missed this one the first time (or just need a good laugh), it’s back, baby! 🔥
This episode originally dropped on October 5, 2022, in Series 3—a season where we finally started hitting our stride, tightening the format, and figuring out our pacing. We were miles ahead of where we started in Series 2, but still light-years from where we are now, beyond Series 7. Growth, people. Growth. 📈
This time around, Tai & Adrienne got to chop it up with the ever-hilarious, always-insightful Jesse the Tree of @strangefamousrecords fame! 🌳 🐦
🌀 What went down?
✔️ Jesse shares the wild tale of how Sage Francis first discovered him… at a festival in Germany of all places. 🇩🇪 🤯
✔️ They talk basketball, which means we probably make fun of Tai’s Utah Jazz again. 🏀 😅
✔️ A hysterical deep dive into understanding cats (spoiler: do we really ever understand them?). 🐱😂
✔️ The legend of Jesse’s organic-gardening dad, “The Wizard”, and his otherworldly green thumb. 🌿✨
✔️ The true meaning of pigeons and why they deserve more respect. 🐦🙏
✔️ Breaking down the art of effortless cool—why the kids who don’t try are somehow the coolest. 😎
✔️ A curveball history question from Mr. Dibbs sends Jesse into a full-on brain spiral. 🌀
✔️ And finally, Jesse calls out people over 40 desperately trying to stay cool… but failing thanks to their tragic pants choices. (Look, we’ve all seen it. 😬👖)
💡 DID YOU KNOW?
Jesse the Tree’s album “Pigeon Man” (which we discuss in-depth here) got serious love from indie rap heads and even landed a 4-star review from some hip-hop tastemakers. Not bad for a guy named after a tree. 🌲💥
This episode was nothing but good vibes, deep laughs, and a full-on ab workout from laughing too hard. 😂 So do yourself a favor—kick off those loafers, hit play, and let the weirdness wash over you. 🎧🔥
💥 HELP US OUT! 💥
✅ Follow & Subscribe – Don’t let Spotify’s nonsense slow us down.
✅ Review & Rate – Takes 2 secs, helps a TON.
✅ Share it! – Tell your weird friends, cool aunts, and even that one coworker who pretends they don’t like podcasts (they do).

March 11, 2025 DJ Mayonnaise & The Anticon Origins | Miracle Whip vs. Mayo Debate Settled?
🚨 DOD45 IS BACK... AGAIN! 🚨
Because Spotify decided to terminate our entire podcast account (👎 real smooth, guys), we’re re-releasing ALL past episodes—two or more a day—until we get the whole catalog back up where it belongs! If you missed this one, or just wanna relive it, now’s your chance!
🔥 Originally aired May 8, 2024 – Series 7 🔥
🎤 On this episode, DJ Mayonnaise joined us while ArtByTai drew a piece for his daughter. We dove deep into:
🎧 His Waxfed project with Mat Young
💿 The early days of Anticon
🎤 Featuring Jesse The Tree on a track
👖 Whether he was a JNCOs or Girbauds kinda guy
🎙 Also in this episode:
✅ Awol One kicks things off with his signature smooth intro
✅ Mr. Dibbs jumps in to (try and) settle the ultimate condiment debate: Miracle Whip vs. Mayo
✅ Sage Francis lurks back in to investigate yet another DJ Mayonnaise tweet involving... 💩
🛑 Did you know? DJ Mayonnaise’s debut album 55 Stories was one of the early experimental cornerstones of the Anticon movement. If you’ve never heard it, you might wanna start with "Strateegery" and let the rabbit hole take you...
🎬 MOVIE RECOMMENDATION:
📽 The Devil and Daniel Johnston – A raw and intimate documentary about the life of cult musician Daniel Johnston, whose struggles with mental illness and unfiltered creativity made him an underground icon.
▶ Watch it here
🎵 SONG RECOMMENDATIONS:
🎶 “Native Dreams” by Rose Windows – A psychedelic rock anthem that blends folk, blues, and dreamlike vocals. If Fleetwood Mac and Black Sabbath had a jam session, this might be the result.
🎶 “Object” by LIIEK – Punchy, angular post-punk with a stripped-down groove. If you dig Wire or early Talking Heads, this one’s for you.

March 11, 2025🎧 The DOD45 Show Ep. 71 – The Buddy Peace Biopic: Featuring Nicks, Toms & a Megamix Mastermind
🚨 RE-UP ALERT! 🚨 Thanks to Spotify’s brilliant decision to terminate our podcast account (cheers for that, by the way 🙄), we’re on a mission to bring back every episode—two or more a day—until the whole DOD45 archive is back where it belongs. So, if you missed this gem the first time around (originally dropping on October 25, 2023), you’re in luck. Or if you caught it before, let’s be real—you want to relive it.
This one’s from Series 6, where we shook things up with new graphics, format tweaks, and our fresh segment, "The Dish"—Firsts, Worsts, and Favorites. Oh, and did we mention the absolutely brilliant guest?
🎤 Guest: @BuddyPeace1980
🔊 DJ | Producer | Finger-Drumming Wizard | Strange Famous In-House Cut Chemist
📍 London, England (but beaming straight to your ears)
Buddy Peace is the mixmaster alchemist behind some of the most mind-bending mashups, including his Miles Davis deconstruction Sons of Bitches—a complete dismantling and reimagining of Bitches Brew and On the Corner. The result? A phenomenal audible experience that should be required listening for music heads.
We also threw Buddy into The DOD45 Biopic Casting Gauntlet™ 🎬, debating who gets to play him and his cohorts on the big screen:
Father Peace: Nick Nolte or Nicolas Cage?
Scroobius Pip: Nick Frost or Nick Offerman?
Buddy himself: Tom Hiddleston or Tom Hardy? 🤔
🔥 But of course, we dig deeper.
Sage Francis pops in to confront Buddy about a 2019 post that—wait for it—contained the word "chillax." (We had no choice but to investigate.)
We name-drop our way through Ron Perlman, Tom Waits, Themselves, L7, Giant Haystacks, Neil Breen, Piers Morgan, Buddy Holly, The Mighty Boosh, Cecil Otter, Married With Children, The Young Ones, and more.
And we shine a well-deserved spotlight on Francis Ford Coppola’s criminally overlooked film, The Conversation.
DID YOU KNOW? 🤯
Buddy Peace once contributed a mix so intricate that listeners assumed it took weeks to craft—only for him to casually reveal he put it together in a single insomnia-fueled session. That’s just how his brain works. Genius never sleeps.
🎥 Episode Movie & Song Recommendations:
🍿 Movie: "Bug Powder Dust" – Bomb the Bass’ 90s trip-hop banger featuring Justin Warfield’s surrealist, Burroughs-esque lyricism.

March 11, 2025 🎧 South Park Dreams, Party Gators & Punk Rap with Kalyn Heffernan of Wheelchair Sportscamp | The DOD45 Show (Series 5 Re-Release!)
💀 Spotify tried to kill our podcast, but we’re UNSTOPPABLE. They hit that “delete” button on The DOD45 Show podcast account like a clumsy intern spilling coffee on the mainframe. But guess what? We’re back, and we’re dropping EVERY past episode—2+ a day until they’re ALL back online!
This one originally aired March 22, 2023, during Series 5—the season where we had the structure locked in but were still experimenting with segments and new ideas. By then, we had come a LONG way since Series 4, but looking back from beyond Series 7, it’s wild to see how much further we’ve taken it.
🔥 On this episode, Tai & Adrienne sit down with the incomparable Kalyn Heffernan of Wheelchair Sports Camp—rapper, activist, Denver dweller, and all-around badass.
They dive into:
💿 Her “YESS I’m a MESS” 7” release on Alternative Tentacles
🎬 Upcoming music videos for her Alice in Wonderland album
🛹 Her ongoing campaign to guest-star on South Park—seriously, MAKE THIS HAPPEN!
🎤 The wild realization that she’s collaborated with Tai’s favorite comedian, James Acaster, on his "Party Gator Purgatory" album (alongside Yoni Wolf, Open Mike Eagle & more)
🔥 Deep dives & off-the-rails moments include:
💡 A philosophical breakdown of The American Disabilities Act & what counts as a "reasonable accommodation"
🎵 Kalyn’s new approach to rap improv, inspired by jazz vocalist Venus Cruz
🎨 Tai drawing a piece he NEVER would’ve thought to do on his own
📞 Mr. Dibbs calls in to grill Kalyn about the first show they played together & the resulting shenanigans
👀 Sage Francis drops in to lurk Kalyn’s Twitter feed like a true digital ninja
💡 Did you know? Kalyn was the first wheelchair-using mayoral candidate in Denver history, breaking barriers while simultaneously breaking beats. If that’s not legendary, what is?
🐓 So feed the animals, spike the punch, corral the chickens & kick back for this unforgettable episode of The DOD45 Show with Kalyn Heffernan of Wheelchair Sports Camp.
