Andy Frasco's World Saving Podcast

This week on the pod, Frasco admonishes us all to NOT BRING THAT **** TO NEXT WEEK. Marinate and move on, as the kind Dr. Frasco prescribes. Plus! He sits down with Twiddle frontman and jam-brother from another tour mother, Mihali. These two lords of chaos trip the light fandango, share war stories from the road, and sing the praises of the real MVPs: their tour managers — those brave souls who've saved their butts more times than anyone can count (and sometimes even after questionable substances were consumed). What's going on with Twiddle these days, you ask? Suffering from aphantasia and need a visual aid to accompany your podcast? Well, fear not. We gotchu.

Hey there... we heard about you. Yeah, that's right you're one of those fine human beings that enjoys a real good podcast, huh? Well, hold onto your butts, cuz got one doozy of an episode for ya this week. Frasco opens the show with some advice: listen to that body of yours and marinate in some DOWN TIME. Or better yet, find yourself in the company of some friends like the superbly talented Dan Rodriguez and the inimitably effervescent Steve Poltz! It's a deep dive into the art of songwriting with three of the most disarming and emotionally moving artists that this humble podcast episode description writer has had the pleasure of writing a podcast episode description for...  Suffering from aphantasia and need a visual aid to accompany your podcast?

Andy and Nick are back and they're talking upcoming shows, body massage histories (in which the only happy endings are emotional), and the weirdly sensual appeal of trashy beach towns. But most importantly, we welcome the Ultimate Rock Star: Mike Campbell! Andy swears they met once when he was a kid… Was this a full-circle moment? Perhaps. Did Mike remember meeting Andy as a kid? Debatable. But the vibes: Immaculate. Come for a legendary interview with a real life Heartbreaker. Stay for the inappropriate oversharing.

Get your heart right with a very special episode of The World Saving Podcast, in which Andy & Nick surprise dial up members of Umphrey's McGee to ask for unpaid life coaching. What nice boys. But what's all this about Frasco pledging to jail break Bayliss if he gets in trouble whilst touring Morocco?? Andy shares big news involving his face and updates on that oozing infection. Shout out to Denver airport's McDonalds Workers.

Andy Frasco is BACK from his various cruise obligations and high sea follies (hard life, I know) and ready to motivate YOU. Does he have stories that'll make your head spin? Duh. Is the band touring again soon? You betcha. But does he even miss his life back in Denver with his best friend & co-host, Nick?! Well, dear listener, tune in and find out...

Andy and the boys are on sojourn, sailing the seas of ease aboard the 311 Cruise. And because nature abhors a vacuum, Nick takes the microphone once again, aided by his buddy-in-arms Drew Birch, tackling variegated topics, such as THE NEWS. Trust Nick & Drew: the only true, fake-newsworthy source of seretonin based factoids and cultural musings you could hope to find this side of the trivia-sphere.

Righteous fiddling friend of the band, Allie Kral jumps on mic to get real deep in the shallow end with Andy & Nick. Don't miss electric reveals of who-kissed-who's and an honest discussion on the repercussions of chucking heavy objects at smarmy bandmates whilst driving on the road in the tour van. Plus!

Andy Frasco is back with a very special episode of The World Saving Podcast, in which he attempts to wrangle the buffonary that is his band: The U.N. Find out who the fresh meat is and while you're at it; catch up with them old dogs, too. But the real mystery? Where the hell did everyone else go?! Did they find Jesus? Join the circus? Escape to a remote island (nantucket) where Andy's calls can't reach them? Hmm... Maybe a little of column A thru C, huh?  Expect debauchery, Kris Lager, and a deep dive into the inner workings (or dysfunctions) of the most unpredictable band in rock 'n' roll history. And if you've ever wondered what it takes to survive in The U.N., let's just say you gotta have thick skin. So grab a drink, lower your expectations, and join us for a family reunion that's less heartwarming than it is homoerotic.

Good evening, ladies and gentlemen. It's time to sift through the glittery dumpster fire that is pop culture—where the rich get richer, the famous get canceled, and the rest of us revel in the Doom Scroll of it all. So Buckle up! Cuz our man Nick is going solo on the mic tonight to give you the latest drama, some hot nonsense, and juuuuuust enough credibility to make your mom trust us.  And if you're in Denver why not check out Nick's Trivia Night at Yacht Club (this place ain't really about boats, but there is drinking and plenty of mysterious international laws that apply) Call, leave a message, and tell us what YOU think makes someone a truly GOOD friend: (720) 996-2403  We are PSYCHED to partner up with our buddies at Volume.com!

While Andy & Nick trip the light fantastic on the epic party boat that is Jam Cruise (hopefully not tripping so hard they fall over board, am I right?), we got a new episode with updates from the boys! Is there any news on the upcoming tour? Or the new album?? And what of Jam Cruise's buffet??? But most importantly, on the Interview Hour, we welcome the singer-songwriter/performance powerhouse couple that is Michael Trotter Jr. and Tanya Trotter, otherwise known as The War and Treaty!

Andy and Nick are joined by the Cocuzza bros and we're talking about the biggest event in America. No, not the election, not even THE SUPER BOWL, but in fact, the pinacle of Denver Debauchery: the Andy Frasco & The U.N. show at The Mission Ballroom in Denver. That magical night in which nitrous flows like the tears of so many Kansas City Chief fans. But that's not all! We're diving deep into the Disco Biscuits—cuz why watch Kendrick Lamar hammering in the final nail of Drake's coffin when you can watch people melt into the floor instead? And will Andy still be allowed back to The Mission Ballroom after burning down the house? (Legal says we can't comment.) Strap in, tune up, and get ready for another ride on the chaos train.

As Frasco finishes up road doggin with JJ Grey, Nick takes the mic to fill everyone in on exactly what he reaaaally thinks about Andy Frasco (spoiler: he thinks he's a great guy). And on the Interview Hour, we welcome the boys from hyper-prolific modern-day jam band, Kendall Street Company! This is a band that starts with a plan and finishes off with a touch of chaos. You know I was thinking- if Kendall Street Company was a meal, it'd be a buffet where you start with breakfast, accidentally hit a taco station, and in a psychedelic stupor, end the night by eating fondue off a former NFL cheerleader's six pack.

Andy unpacks his trip to Italy and alleviates worries about a potential move back to his hometown of Los Angeles. Andy may soon help Nick see the magic in the chaotic mess of L.A., but Nick still has something to show Andy about the quiet elegance of a green room couch. (Denver is FULL UP on green room couches fyi) Listen closely as Nick's meticulousness and Andy's free spirit blossoms into a deep, loving friendship, full of late-night texts and shared passions.

Nick Only Knows (What Andy Would Do) (To the tune of "God Only Knows" by The Beach Boys) [Verse 1] They play with the heat, it's more than just fun, When Nick hits a note, Andy comes undone, If ever they part, they'd still feel the pull, Nick only knows when Andy gets full. [Chorus] Nick only knows what Andy would do, When they're together, oh girl you'll feel it too, If you should ever watch, you'd feel it too, Nick only knows what Andy would do. [Bridge] (Saxophone melody) (Musical interlude with vocal harmonies) [Outro] Nick only knows, Nick only knows, Nick only knows what Andy would do. {written by our cumputer overlords at chatgpt} We're psyched to partner up with our buddies at Volume.com!

We open with a special love song devoted to one, Mr Floyd Kellogg. Then, jump on into the Man Stew with us as we get steamy with a touring band's worth of naked men. Plus: a very special motivational message from our beloved mustachioed merch maniac, Logan. (Does he not remind you of Donnie from The Wild Thornberrys?) And on the Interview Hour, we're welcoming back the one & only, Garrett Dutton, aka G Love! Andy tries to remember if he's written anything with G Love, only for Nick to rightfully ask: how do you not recall if you've ever written a song with G Love??

Expect the usual lunacy one finds in an episode devoted to Nick & Andy talking at each other for an hour straight on such topics you've come to love: which sport features the largest of hogs and whether Andy should talk about his new comedian girlfriend on the podcast... but now sprinkle in a healthy dose of Marty and you got yourself a helluva morning cocktail for your drive to work!

In the heart of countless battles, where the roar of conflict and the weight of sacrifice formed the backdrop of their days, two Denver musicians forged a bond that would outlast the scars of tour. From the stage to the afters (and the Corey Feldmans that came between), a friendship formed between Andy & Nick that was both refuge AND beacon. In other words: we're talking drugs and drama, people. Aaaaaand on the Interview Hour, Slightly Stoopid joins the fray as Andy sits down with multi-instrumentalist, Miles Doughty! With vibes so smooth, you'll feel like you're sitting on a sandy beach drinking a tasty cocktail... Or are you, really?? Welcome to the MATRIX, yall.

Friend of the show, Caleb Hawley opens the show with a real banger of a tune. Andy and Nick catch up on matters of the heart. Namely, that sweet, sweet love a person has for oneself: narcissism. Plus! What does Andy have to say about his Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds moment in Las Vegas at the Sphere. Does this guy love John Mayer, or what?!

Andy updates from a mile high. Was the Vegas Sphere really that amazing? (Yes. Yes, it was.) And on the Interview Hour, we got comedian, Brent Pella from MTV's Wild 'N Out! Brent's got the comedy pedigree, the resume, and the know-how to steer Andy and Nick back on course. Does he microdose psilocybin? You betcha! We're here to learn how to navigate the seas of entertainment without getting sucked under by the Kraken of burn-out, or over taken by the Blue Beard of drug overdose. And watch out for the Johnny Depp of Depression! (deppression, clinically) Boy, is this metaphor strained or what! Keep those post-show mushrooms flowing, people.

In which the chaotic union of Frasco and Gerlach - best friends and podcasting degenerates - serve up their brand of unfiltered & unwashed, RAW convos. Vegan & Keto friendly, too! These two are closer than a pair of sweaty underwear after a wild night out (and just as messy). And on the Interview Hour, Andy has a plucky chat with Kyle Tuttle, banjo maestro from Golden Highway! They riff on Kyle's musical journey, his innovative approach to banjo playing, and the high-energy antics that keep Golden Highway's performances far from dialed in.
