This week we talk to one of our favorite bands, Paper Route. The band has just released their new album, The Peace of Wild Things, and lead singer J.T. Daly gives us an inside look at the process of making the album. And yes, JUNGLE BIRD joins us for a Katie-Couric-style-interview with Jesse Carey. It’s hard-hitting, hilarious, and one you won’t want to miss. Plus, Maya looks for jobs on Craigslist and Calvin brings yet another list.

What is your craziest Craigslist story? And if you don’t have one, what is the craziest thing you can find on Craigslist?

This week, Jesse told a heartfelt story about getting stood up on a Craigslist/golf club transaction. And Maya brought a slice about a guy selling an upside down plane. So this week we want to know if you have any crazy Craigslist stories. And if now, we want you to go over to Craigslist and find the strangest thing you can find and post a link to us. If it’s crazy enough, we might just purchase it for our studio!

What 80’s show or movie would you tattoo on your body…and where would it be?

This week we wisely invested (wasted) nearly an hour looking at ridiculous 80’s sitcom/movie tattoos that people have permanently chosen to wear (Never Ending Story sleeves, front-thigh-Golden Girls, etc…). So of course it got us wanting to know what 80’s (or childhood) show or movie you would tattoo on your body, and if you did, where you would put it.

This week we celebrate 7 years of the RELEVANT Podcast! Not only do we talk to one of our favorite new bands, Of Monsters and Men, we even pulled Jesse Carey away from Loverland, Virginia to join us in-studio. We spent the entire weekend celebrating, engaging in a ridiculous photo shoot and embarking on an epic trip to Medieval Times (don’t worry, we tell you ALL about it). Pull out the party hats, people…it’s time to celebrate!

On this week’s show, reigning NBA Most Improved Player and former Orlando Magic power forward Ryan Anderson joins us in the studio (yes, Cameron geeks out a little). Also, a great indie rock band, Yellow Ostrich, joins us for a segment. Jesse gives us a recap of his Jersey Shore vacation and we unveil your greatest fears. It’s a great episode so don’t go anywhere (unless you want to leave us and go to L.A.—we’re used to that).

What rides should be in our theme park?

This week we unveiled plans to create our own theme park and we want to get you in on the planning. Among our park’s many attractions there will undoubtedly be a “Podcast Land” so we fully expect your imaginations to run wild with that. There are many theme parks in this great world of ours, but we have a feeling that with all of you putting your minds together, we can come up with one of the best. So there’s your challenge this week – what rides should be in our theme park?
