Egads!

Hello - We are back for season 2 of Egads - Today we are looking at some other hiatuses (hiati?).  Some were too long and some were not long enough.  We go from the Corleones to Brooklyn to James Bond and beyond.  Patti Smith, Yes, Michael Jordan, even Sharknado gets a mention here.   Thanks for listening.

Hello all.  Join Jonathan and Steve as we take a gander at some of the holidays that don't get the same respect as Xmas, Labor Day,  etc.  These scrappy holidays are moving fast however and now you can get in on the ground floor!!!!!!! Newman Day, Festivus, Cinco De "MARCHO" and more.  And of course - Talk Like a Pirate Day.   Enjoy

Join Jonathan and Steve in a discussion about bands in pairs.  Similarities and differences - Ups and Downs!!!  Hits and Misses!!!  When you think of Pink Floyd, does Talking Heads spring to mind?  It did for us.   What do the Stones and U2 have in common?  Find Out Here!!!! Also discover that a rainstorm growing in intensity that sounds so soothing while recording can sound like static on a playback.  Jonathan and Steve braved the weather and wild bears (at least one) for this episode.  Hope you enjoy.

Join hosts Jonathan and Steve as we uncover some great mysteries ....and cover them back up again.  From Kaspar Hauser to the Taos Hum and beyond to Nessie and so much more - Listen as Steve bumbles every pronunciation  while he and Jonathan cross the boundary into the unknown!!

The Sorrow - The Pity - The Grandeur - The Glory - The Egads crew gives their take on one of the greatest bands of all time - The Ramones.  Even if you didn't like them, they had a major impact on the music and more importantly the musicians that followed.

In this episode we take a look at drive-in movie theaters, player pianos and other cultural phenomena that quickly rose in popularity only to fade away within a relatively short period of time.

Welcome to the very first episode of Egads, an irreverent look at history and everything else in life.  This week we focus on a spectacularly foolish event that took place in the sixth century—and it is one that will leave you scratching your head and wondering, “What were they thinking?” On the flip side, your hosts Steve and Jonathan will also highlight seven historical screw-ups that actually led to positive outcomes.
