February 25, 2025 Butch Vig - Life Between Nirvana and Garbage
In recognition of Kurt Cobain's February birthday (he would have been 58 on 2/20/25), and 30 years since the release of Garbage's first album with the hits songs Stupid Girl and Only Happy When It Rains, we're bringing back our epic conversation with fellow Packers fan Butch Vig.

Catch the VIDEO with Butch recalling a raucous night at the Hollywood Palladium with the Butthole Surfers and L7 where he lost Nirvana, and Kurt Cobain took a long walk home.

WATCH HERE: https://youtube.com/shorts/ObnU5pTK9gk

This episode includes stories about how Garbage was once forced to play a gig middle of the night in a Serbian castle; why the band's lead singer Shirley Manson nearly didn't pass her audition; and the fact that band members ALWAYS lose 20 IQ points when they go on tour.

February 11, 2025 HOPSCOTCH TOWN - Song For Those Who Are Hoppin' Mad
Allen and his band, Happiless, put out a song — Hopscotch Town — way back in 2014 that sounds pretty prescient today. It's about a place where the people in charge convince the people they rule that economic prosperity trumps individual freedom. Sound familiar? And when will those egg prices come down, anyhow? Hopscotch Town is a catchy piece of pop confection wrapped around a big chunk of poison. Give it a listen. Then take action!

January 28, 2025 The Replacements Tommy Stinson - Getting stupid (and clever) with Axl Rose, Gene Simmons, Tom Petty and...of course...Paul Westerberg
Before January wraps, let's celebrate that 39 years ago this month on January 18, 1986, the Replacements got banned for life from SNL. In the middle of playing "Bastards of Young" on live TV, singer Paul Westerberg yelled to guitarist Bob Stinson, "Come on, F*cker!" during this guitar solo.

In a combo platter of VIDEO and audio featuring one of our favorite guests, Tommy Stinson tells the story of yet another rowdy New York incident when the band played at the legendary CBGB. When the God of Thunder, Gene Simmons from KISS, walked in the Replacements decided that being on their worst behavior was exactly what the occasion called for.

WATCH HERE: https://youtube.com/shorts/FbcKOyA7mAA

Tommy's on tour! In this episode, the Minneapolis kid who grew up playing bass in one of rock 'n' roll's most notorious bands talks about wearing dresses while opening for Tom Petty; Rock in Rio with Guns N' Roses in front of 500,000 fans and not being able to hear a thing; and the weather-induced fear of encountering a TORDANO on the road.

December 24, 2024 Fake Plastic Christmas Trees - Radiohead & Sleater-Kinney
In this holiday episode, our friend Corin Tucker from Sleater-Kinney tells about the time she and bandmates Carrie Brownstein and Janet Weiss reluctantly abandoned their punk instincts and wrapped "gifts" for an uncomfortably phony photo shoot. Then host Alex Hofmann returns to a Christmas past when Radiohead flew him to their post-Pablo Honey holiday party in England...and Ed O'Brien had to nurse him back to health.

December 17, 2024 Quick Taps - You Con-Duit!
If you know the movie “This Is Spinal Tap,” you will certainly recall the moment Spinal Tap bassist Derek Smalls describes himself as the band conduit, "David and Nigel are like poets, you know, like Shelley or Byron, or people like that. The two totally distinct types of visionaries, it’s like fire and ice, and I feel my role in the band is to be kind of the middle of that, kind of like lukewarm water.” Well, on today’s Quick Tap, our guests tell us about the times they left puddles of themselves for a higher purpose. Songwriter Freedy Johnston introduces Lou Reed and Joey Ramone; author and rapscallion Scott Nathan recounts the time he connected Leonardo DiCaprio to a Martin Scorsese flick; and The Pulsars Dave Trumfio reminisces about how he got a rise out of Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher with rock legend Cynthia Plaster Caster.

December 03, 2024 Quick Taps - I Hope We Passed The Audition
Some auditions are really ODDitions in disguise. On this TMEP Show Quick Tap, Divine Sweater lead singer Meghan Kelleher reveals how a one-off emergency gig led to a permanent one; 86-year-old TikTok influencer Annie Korzen tells us why she said "Yes" to a role on a little-known show about nothing...and banked $100,000 in residuals; and actor/comedian Jeff Grace guides us through the land mines he had to avoid after landing a role on Mad Men.
