17 – Helicopter Pod Aug 12, 2019

Show notes

That's right folks, we have two episodes for you this week. This ep is a time capsule from that really hot weekend a few weeks ago. We recorded this episode on a helicopter which is pretty sick. We talk about stolen valor Boston culture, weaboos, teaboos, how hot it is outside, and a brand new installment of Plugin Talk.

16 – Yung Life Aug 05, 2019

Show notes

Win Butler and Thom Yorke drop by for a round of Celebrity Jeopardy. Thom doesn't say much and Win stays way past his welcome. We talk shit about Jimmy Eat World, The Front Bottoms, and Scott Stapp's Marlins song, Jeff tells us about his dick-shaped menorah, and Aaron goes deep into why Young Life youth group is a cult. This episode brought to you by Protestant Reformation: The Game 2, coming soon exclusively on the Epic Games Store.

14 – VVoodstock '99 Jul 10, 2019

Show notes

This week we talk about how fucked up it is that Jeff likes vanilla seltzer and that Jacob looks like the annoying kid from The Polar Express. Also, we discuss our irrational musical pet peeves, how sick the Wikipedia iOS app is, a sudden left turn into where we were for 9/11, some gear talk about turntables, and a long and arduous search for DJ Khaled's incredible McDonald's radio commercials from 2008.

13 – Doing dope shit with your friends Jun 28, 2019

Show notes

This week we watch some epic 4K drone compilations and some military fail compilations, we brainstorm who would headline the "Doing Dope Shit with Your Friends" Fest, Jeff has some extremely hot takes on the new Lust for Youth record, and we get into some heated arguments over Two Dots and Fla-Vor-Ice.

Come see Aaron's first drag performance as Silver Wax Lips at Str8 to DVD: *P R i D E W O R L D* this Saturday at Gold Sounds in Bushwick!!

11 – Sleepytime Pod Jun 06, 2019

Show notes

We're feeling very sleepy this ep, especially Jeff, who smoked weed before AND DURING the record. We reminisce about Sick Animation and Minecraft parody videos because we are 13 years old, actually. We also prove how into cinema we are by reading Letterboxd reviews of Citizen Kane and trying to piece together the Matrix/John Wick extended universe. Also we play a wild track from the new 100 gecs album so check that out.

10 – A Capella is the only good genre of music May 31, 2019

Show notes

A capella is the only good genre of music because guitar music is on its way out in 2019 and Moby just ruined electronic music for everyone. In second place is spoken-word emo, which we listen to a lot of this episode. Sorry folks, we don't make the rules!!!

9 – The Krautrock of Podcasts May 16, 2019

Show notes

We are trying to figure out how to become "the krautrock of podcasts" but this craigslist reel-to-reel tape player didn't come with a power supply so we're out of luck. We take a listen to new releases from Holly Herndon and Helm, and Jacob takes us through the six-point, battle-tested algorithm behind amicancelled.com.

8 – Hotline Bling – Marimba Remix [Bass Boosted] May 08, 2019

Show notes

This week we debut our expensive new theme song, celebrate Star Wars day may the 4th be with you epic win style, and give a track-by-track analysis of the new Vampire Weekend album.
