E119 - Welcome to the Band, Marlon - Max is joined by Marlon B. Lewis for an interview that traces his path from Upper Darby High to Berklee College of Music to drumming for The Disco Biscuits. Marlon opens up about his musical influences, his approach to improvisation, the deep faith that guides him on stage and off, and his exhilaration over playing alongside Barber, Magner, and Brownie. He shares his feelings about the Biscuits' catalog, including the songs he's most looking forward to debuting this winter, and acknowledges the lessons he's learned from studying his predecessors Allen and Sammy. And because he's Philly born and raised, Marlon definitely has strong opinions about who's got the best cheesesteak and the Birds' and Sixers' playoff prospects.

The road to New Year's Eve 2025 begins on December 18 in Minneapolis, MN. For all winter tour dates and tickets, head over to discobiscuits.com/shows.

E117 - Simulations (w/Marc Brownstein) - Marc Brownstein returns to the pod to discuss how his burgeoning DJ career has influenced and enriched the music he creates with The Disco Biscuits and Tractorbeam.

E114 - Snowball Fight at the Giants Game - On the Monday after the band's three-night Pine Creek Lodge run Barber and Max regroup and recap the Ardmore Bisco Sixer and the first half of the Between the Trees tour. Barber describes the minimalistic approach that created standout jams and his excitement over introducing his and Joey's newest song, Dream Journal, into the rotation.

E113 - Frasco Stirs the Pot - On the eve of the band's six-night residency at the Ardmore Music Hall, Barber and Max welcomed Coach Joey, John Poulides of the Touchdowns All Day Advisory Committee, and the one-and-only Andy Frasco for a conversation about partying, surviving life on the road, and why bands can sometimes feel like marriages. Don't worry, Frasco stirred the pot like only he can. But he also offered his frank and heartfelt feedback on Barber's and Joey's latest demo, Dream Journal.

E112 - Before Max joined Barber as the co-host of Touchdowns All Day he was the straight-man sidekick for another...shall we say...interesting personality. Reality TV star Corinne Kaplan has a well-earned reputation as Survivor's "Queen of Mean.". Her outrageous real-life stories and uncancelable spirit have also made her one of the greatest podcast guests (and hosts) in the game today. In this special episode, Max introduces his new co-host to his old co-host, orchestrating a meeting of two of the most fascinating and unusual minds on the planet today. In addition to catching up on reality TV gossip, Barber and Corinne trade some of their more out-there views on dieting, dating, music, and life itself.

Make sure to check out Corinne's new podcast with Big Brother legend Britney Haynes, Where's My Spinoff, wherever you get your audio entertainment. And don't ask where you can find the old episodes of All The Fixins...it ain't happening.
