2026/01/03

Listen. I know I released this already ,but for some reason it didn't come out on Apple Podcasts so I am releasing it again to see if that works. This is the episode from when we still enjoyed the podcast so much that we were adding episodes and for this one we covered Rolling Stone's list of the greatest rock Christmas songs of all time. It has the first 12 days of Christmas songs on it and is not a bad episode but we were all up to our elbows with family stuff and Pink Floyd does not exactly

AUDIO FIXED. Thanks to our fans for pointing this out to me in lots of texts. I loved it. Hey everyone. We are getting double teamed by the Beatles this week and it might make us cream our eyes out. We combined these two albums so we don't go insane. I wish I would have done the history of the album before each one but we still get to hear about Flavor Savers, the Best Christmas Movies, and having sharp bones. We talk about the benefits of breaking up, we talk to Beck Claus, and reflect back on

Folks, we are ditching our guests and talking about the Beastie Boys 3rd album and it will make you say "DAMN!" We talk about our various types of whips, the worst airplane movies, and Rob tries to talk Pat O'Brien. Then we sing along with Snow and go on a comment rabbit hole. Rob goes on a winning streak, Matt talks inflatables, and Big Daddy takes on the big Easy. Then we talk the boys playing their own instruments, the great music of the 90s, and whether or not an eclectic album is a good

We talk about one of the greatest voices of our generation and of course I am talking about Russ and why he won't come to NYC for thanksiving (being forced to go to parades.)We are talking about Janis Joplin- Pearl and we are blown away by the album. Great music, great voice, and just like Matt's love- language, the album is a touching tribute to a singer who died before the release. Aaron went to an 85 yeart olds birthday party and Rob is being disrepectful. Then we talk our favorite port

Hello, one more ep for D'Angelo but as I was listening to this, I realized what a canon episode this is. Shoplifting from the airport, going to watch the State of the Union Address, plus a Big Bopper call. I also left all of Russell's original notes in the episode because they are brilliant. We are the world. We are children. We are the ones who make the best podcast about D'Angelo and the 183rd greatest album of all time, Brown Sugar, so you should start listening.1 Before we get to the

Hey... come on in, sit back, and take your socks off and enjoy the Pink Floyd album you have never heard nor heard a song off of. This is the episode where someone took 100 mg of the limitless drug and decided to host a podcast. We visit iwaspoisoned.com. and figure out the worst place to get tilapia before our flight to Chicago, find a new kind of Cheerios, and we are on a diet so we will just have the broccoli.

We know you like it extra SLOPPY. The first 25 min are the worst show we have ever done. Then Aaron saves the day.

Aaron talks carpooling, sloppy joes, and we find out how much beef jerky is in our houses... Rob talks about dispensing justice, the career of Mark Mothersbaugh, and how Devo combined punk and new wave. Matt highly recommends the Devo documentary and I
