Episode 32: Cinema Strangiato Aug 26, 2019

Show notes

On August 21st, 2019, Rush released Cinema Strangiato for one night only and The Permanent Waves Podcast was there to document it.

Special thanks to the Alamo Drafthouse Park North in San Antonio, Texas. And thanks to all the fans who came out to share a night of fan frenzy and for indulging the Permanent Waves boys in a bit of Malignant Narcissism.

And to the new listeners who are tuning in this week, welcome! We can't wait to get to know you all.

Episode 31: Jim Brunke Aug 05, 2019

Show notes

Today on our show we are joined by the most prolific concert-goer we have ever met, Jim Brunke! Jim has lived an exciting life as an entrepreneur and as a fan of rock music. After a long and exciting stint as a Rush fan, Jim joined a group of like-minded people to form Rush Camp, an all inclusive Rush themed camp in the beautiful Pocono mountains.

We talk about meet and greets, wine tastings, steampunk imagery, road trips, history, community, and - of course- the greatest rock band in the history of the world: Rush!

Episode 30: The Return of Matt Poarch! Jul 22, 2019

Show notes

Today on our show witness the long-awaited return of Permanent Waves Hall of Famer, Matt Poarch! That's right, unlike the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, we at The Permanent Waves Podcast don't dilly around with hall of fame inductees.

Matt was kind enough to invite the boys to his "Shed and Breakfast" to screen the R40 tour for Ben, who missed the tour and hadn't yet seen the concert footage.

We talk about adventurous pets, drunken Coheed shows, science (natural science as well as super conductor science), honeydew, time travel, summer camp, and - of course - the greatest rock band in the history of the world, Rush.

Episode 26: The One Year Anniversary Show! Jun 06, 2019

Show notes

Today on our show we celebrate one year of Permanent Waves! (Permanence established!)

One year ago today we published our first episode. The year since has been humbling and awe inspiring for us. The idea that there are people out in the world who enjoy what we do the same way we enjoy our favorite podcasts is an idea that brings us a lot of joy. We can't thank you enough, the internet, for the support as we learned to navigate the podcasting sea.

More interviews are on their way, but today we look back on one year of Rush fandom.
