This week Dad Bod Rap Pod hosts Demone Carter, David Ma, and Nate LeBlanc alongside Producer Cutso, are breaking down the Beastie Boys' fifth album, To The 5 Boroughs. Where their previous few records had been eclectic mixes of jammy, loungey instrumental songs, punk egergy, and hard-hitting leftfield hip-hop, for this album the Boys decided to approach early 2000s America with an old-school hip-hop sensibility. As you will hear, we are not fans of this choice. Since we didn't really care for this record, we devote a lot of this episode to talking about Grand Royal, the Beastie Boys' magazine and record label. The magazine is an important and now quite rare document of the Boys' hipster sensibilities that shined a light on a lot of creative people. It's probably one of the coolest things that a major band could have done for their listeners in a pre-internet age. The record label was a bit more hit and miss but also a worthwhile endeavor that shut down just as it was starting to get interesting by signing some fascinating underground MCs. Thanks to everyone who has joined us on the album-by-album look into the Beasties' fascinating career.

The rivalries in New York have been distinct between the two MLS branches in the Big Apple. However, FC Cincinnati has taken a few bites out of the core before as well. We've already covered the bile between Cincinnati and the Red Bulls, and this week we take on the bluer side of the 5 Boroughs. Last season, it ended a bit sour with New York City FC marching into TQL Stadium and winning the rubber match to knock the Orange & Blue out of the playoffs. While Cincinnati brought in a ton of big-money talent in the offseason, NYCFC did the opposite by staying pat. The only major change came at the head coach role, with Nick Cushing exiting and Pascal Jansen taking over. How has that big change worked so far in New York? We invite Andrew from Hudson River Blue back to talk about the Pigeons and perhaps give us a few insights on visiting Citi Field for a match. (Perhaps he has a recommendation for matzo ball soup?)
