Drew is on vacation this week, so Brandon is here! Portland comedian Jason Traeger is our guest this week. We get deep into politics, Taco Bell, powdered cacao, Jason's comedy history, competitive eating, Cincinnati chili, Smashmouth, and more. Plus, for our true fans it's a real "who wore it better" situation when Brandon tells his side of the laundry mat wallet mystery. 

Amanda Richards stopped by the studio this week to talk about her long awaited new album, her lap-steel player Steve's banjo collection, her song writing process, bad decisions, hard living, throwing up on a beach, and Tom Waits. She really blew our faces off with an amazing live performance. 

Josh is back! This week we're talking about Festicide, an anti-festival showcasing some of Portlands best hardcore, underground, and experimental rock bands. It's a direst response to the bloated waterfront monstrosity that is Project Pabst/MFNW. We talk about pot pies, Rabbits, Portland's changing music landscape, and we play Drew's favorite segment, Mood Music. 

Our guests this week are Cedar Teeth! We talk about pet cemeteries, the history of their band, Crazy Ed's homemade teeth, haunting the Gorge with DMB, and they breathe some life into our studio with some fantastic live music. 

This week our guest is Leland from Mr Bones. We talk about the best part of being in a band, puke control, their new album, ramen, and we play the weed name game. music from Cultar of the Deepers, Patsy's Rats, Michael Christmas, and more!

This week we have the man behind the hip hop blog Damn That Noise, Ralph Edward Perez and his friend Billy What. We get into their earliest rap memories, our favorite guest verses, and we play a new game called Mood Music. Music this week from Homeboy Sandman, Open Mike Eagle, Oddisee, and more.
