Episode 166 - Being Somewhat Optimistic About Frasier

Empty Checking with Derek Brink ·

2023/10/20

In this rollicking good time of an episode I talk about the new series of Frasier and play guitar a little bit as I review the Strymon Cloudbirst pedal that I got quite some time ago but just never talked about. It's a fun hour of me geeking out about stuff I like and also complaining about an ear infection at the end of it. (Spoiler, I guess?) Check it out!

In this episode (which is a couple days late--super-sorry!) I talk about music from Slowdive, Baroness, Jason Isbell, and The Who. I also touch on books by Jeff Smith. Neil Gaiman, and Joe Hill...but let's be honest, this episode was mostly an excuse to talk about The Who.

This episode was recorded the week of 8/14 and delayed out of respect to a friend. Please excuse anything that seems slightly off-time for whatever week it actually is now. In this episode, I talk about one of my basses that I've had for 30 years, then about music stuff related to Neil Young, The Band, and Bob Dylan, then about I Love Lucy. Super current subjects in this episode! :) But it's fun. I liked listening to it during editing, and I don't like the sound of my own voice. So that tells you

Better late than never! It was a struggle to find the time this week, but there is finally a new episode!

That, plus commentary on a good natured cat-fight in the background. It's a fun one! Check it out! (One note: I didn't have time to re-listen. If there are any weird audio glitches, I apologize. Busy week.) Blog:
