I'm always in motion, but I'm not going anywhere. I'm still the opposite of Ben when I think about it. He's everywhere and all at once, and so busy, and the scurrying barely stops. I mean, I almost wonder if Ben is real when I stop to think about it. I never see him. I feel like I imagine I hear him as much as actually hearing him, but yeah, the proof of him was definitely on display for a time. And the echo of him sure seems real. I feel like he and I have worked a pretty good system on this place now too — he's probably more likely to be fully enjoying the run of the joint when I'm out. So I'm trying to go out more. But I also know I'm going nowhere very quickly.Bought a copy of Gravity's Rainbow from a secondhand store, and I take it with me most places. It's good. I mean, I am reading it, I do like it, I do get it, and all that. But it's also a book most people you meet have no fucking idea about, or the idea they have is it's too big for them, so I am able to bullshit about it with just about anyone. It's the Ulysses for Generation X. Basically. I must remember to tell a bunch of people that, and with the conviction that's my own idea too.Hannah was in my dream last night. And I've had the dream before. About once a week I'd say at present. I run to her at the tree. I get there in time, but I call her Anna, she shakes her head as if to say that's not her name, so the query cannot be for her. And I wake with her in the air, the rope around her neck. It's got me drinking breakfast beers, at least when I have leftovers. I shouldn't drink before lunchtime, or even before dinner time, but at least I'm too embarrassed to take my car anywhere, so I'm not in danger of driving again. Instead I load up my Discman with this great new album, Rocket by Primitive Radio Gods. No one knows it, which is exactly why I love it. At best, people seem to know the single, Standing Outside a Broken Phone Booth with Money In My Hand. Feels like a metaphor to me. Or just a scene I'm constantly walking right through. I first heard it in the movie Cable Guy, and it was perfect, if not that noticeable to many. But how could you not notice and love that song when it's riding on a sample of B.B. King's How Blue Can You Get? Only thing about relentlessly listening to this song is it's not all that great for my mood. I start thinking about whether I'm gonna bump into Joolz, or Anna for that matter. Or that fucking girl that was with Esther and Liz. I mean I don't think she knows I even exist, but yeah, I would say something now. I know I could. I'd ask her about Gravity's Rainbow. Show her my book, which is so well-thumbed. Could even make out it was new to me, and it's my constant re-reading that's made it look all old and nearly ruined. Slick. I'm'a do that for sure. Will and Glen want me to go record shopping with them, so I walk along with my Primitive Radio Gods, and I listen to Phone Booth three times, then skip it forward to Who Say, which is basically a different band, even though it's actually the same one guy making all of the music. Sounds like Supergroove or something. I like it. But I'm telling myself I love it, just so I can have something no one else holds on to. Album of the Year I'm deciding. No one will pick this. But I am. Inside the store, Will's got all these old prog-rock records for a buck each, Genesis and King Crimson and CAN. He holds them up one by one, for me to say yes or no to.The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway. Genesis. “Yes.”In The Court of the Crimson King. King Crimson. “Yes.”Tago Mago. CAN. “Yes.”Tales From Topographic Oceans. By the band Yes. “No.”Well it gets a laugh from Glen. But then, “You're a fucking snob, Jimmy. Wannabe fucking snob.”“I'm not a snob, I just think Yes is the fucking pits. And Jon Anderson sounds like a frog. I mean, fuckssake, if you're gonna buy that you might as well buy a Rush album.”“They're only a buck,” Will says. “So I think I'll just get it anyway, eh.”“Fine. What would I know,” I say. “Indeed”, Glen says”. And he's laughing.“Well,” I say, “I would know that if you're going to get anything from 1973, it better not be a fucking Yes record, and it absolutely should be a Thomas Pynchon novel.” I'm reaching for Rainbow from my backpack, and Will has his hand reverse-cupped across his forehead. Glen is just laughing even harder. “Fuck up about that fucking book,” Glen adds. “Just because you can't read,” I say.“I can read a room though,” Glen bats straight back. Can't lie. This lands. I think he can even see that I'm wounded. Slightly. “Fuck man,” I'm searching, buying time. “Fucking hell you dick, I mean shit, my fucking girlfriend killed herself.”“Oh yeah,” Glen says. “But do you need to tell everyone you meet this instantly. And also, where is the evidence of this mate? I mean, tragic fucking story, but seriously, it's like you kinda turned it on to suit, there's no photos of you, no one to back you up on this. I am not saying it's not sad as hell. It is. But there's a weird angle too, if you're grafting yourself to the story a little more than is true.”“Cunt!” I had nothing. That was it. I walked straight out of the store, and straight into Joolz. Head down, and angry. Me, that is. I just ploughed into her, and of course, I say sorry. She looks up, deer frozen for a second. “Joolz!” I say. She pulls free from my very loose grip, my hands on her shoulders, apologising, gently holding her to make sure she's steady. But nah. She's having none of this. She shakes her head, as if I've got the wrong person, puts her head down and walks fast. I take three steps after her then stop. “Bitch,” I shout. And then instantly feel like a fucking dick. At the bar, I'm lining up a beer and a bourbon. Americans call it a Boilermaker. I call it necessary. I hit most of the beer in one big slug. Then down the shot. Then back to neck the end of the beer. How is this happening to me. Why am I going everywhere and nowhere all at once and never? How am I the rocket falling in my own story? “You look glum?”“Thanks,” I say. “At least I'm doing something right, I suppose. Like, I feel like I should look glum.”I know she's paid to talk to me, but still. The barmaid says, “What's that book you got there? Is that gonna cheer you up, or is that what's making you sad? It looks,” she pauses, “huge!”It's on the tip of my tongue to say thanks for noticing, but I'd only fuck it up. “Gravity's Rainbow by Thomas Pynchon,” I say. No insight, no joke, no nothing. Just title and author. “Oh, I've heard of that,” she says. And I don't believe her. “Want another combo,” she adds, gesturing to the two glasses. “Tell me about the book,” and she's already turning her back to refill the bourbon shot.“It's pretty dense, right. But it has a real humour to it, also a real metaphysical fatalism.”“A meta-what-now?”“If they get you asking the wrong questions, then they don't have to worry about the answers.”“So that's a wrong question then?”“No no, sorry, that's pretty much a line from the book. I mean not verbatim, but close to it.”“So you're a sad guy, but a smart guy. Reckon you can actually explain to me what the book is about there, smart guy?”“Classic paranoid countercultural stuff, high brow, low brow, the works. It's a book about everything. And nothing.”“Well,” she says, putting the pint down next to the shot of bourbon, “It should really be called Rainbow's Gravity shouldn't it? I mean that's the pot of gold weighing it down, eh?”“Oh my fucking god. It's about rockets. That's the space rocket's arc. The rainbow. It's a metaphor. It's not really about density. The only density in the book is what you're bringing to it. And it sounds like you're bringing a lot!” As soon as I've said it, I think about how I botched every aspect of that. I'm a boring, rude cunt, and I cannot flirt. What the fuck was that?“Hey, sad cunt? Drink your drinks and fuck off, okay?”“Look, my girlfriend, she, um, she ah she took her life…”“Is that because the only other option was having you being a patronising jerk to her? I don't believe you. And I'm not going to serve you. You're done. Finish that and piss right off okay. And I'll tell my partner about you. So fucking watch it.”The bourbon goes down easily and immediately, but I take one swig of the beer and it just feels off. Not the actual taste, but I can't be here. I push the stool back, and it clatters to the floor, my feet vaguely caught in it, I nearly lose my balance. “Get walking there, class act,” the barmaid serves a different kind of shot. “Look, I'm sorry,” I say. And I'm already walking.“You sure are,” she says. All but spitting the words at my back. I've turned and walked, and I'm not looking back. I stand outside and count the coins from my pocket into my hand, and then back into the other hand. I take the Primitive Radio Gods CD out from the Discman and file it in the case, and put it back in my bag, and grab Natalie Merchant's Tigerlily. I can't hear that Broken Phone Booth song again anytime soon. I'm basically standing there as if I'm in the song. As if the song is me. My life. My mood. The sum of it all. And I need to keep moving. I kick at nothing, as I walk the streets wondering where to go. And yeah, I skip straight to Carnival.Sounds Good! is a reader-supported publication.

The Rizzuto Show accidentally turns into a full-blown 90s alternative rock therapy session this episode — and honestly, we're not qualified for that kind of emotional labor. Jimmy Griffin joins the crew ahead of Hard Promises taking over The Pageant, and things immediately derail into a passionate debate over which songs got CRANKED in your Geo Metro and which songs made you consider driving directly into the nearest retaining wall. Totally normal behavior for a daily comedy show.The gang breaks down the magic of The Pageant in St. Louis, why certain venues just hit different, and how every local musician basically treats that stage like sacred ground. Jimmy, Moon, and the crew talk touring memories, legendary staff, and why The Pageant remains one of the best venues in the country. Meanwhile, Rafe contributes important scientific analysis like “this song belongs in the organic peanut butter aisle at Schnucks.”Then comes the glorious avalanche of 90s nostalgia. Bush. Silverchair. Local H. Soul Asylum. Fastball. Collective Soul. Gin Blossoms. Primitive Radio Gods. The Wallflowers. Deep Blue Something. Dishwalla. Basically every song that ever played while your parents fought in the front seat of a Dodge Neon. The crew debates which songs were instant “turn-it-up” classics and which ones deserved immediate radio execution. Lern reveals her absolute hatred for “Runaway Train,” Moon passionately defends Silverchair with the energy of a man protecting sacred scripture, and Jimmy Griffin admits he thought Silverchair was just “baby Nirvana.” Somewhere during all this, Rizz realizes half these bands were apparently “for the girls,” which honestly explains a lot.Jimmy also talks about performing Tom Petty songs with Hard Promises, including why Petty's catalog is basically impossible to screw up because the songs are deceptively simple and annoyingly perfect. The crew gets into favorite deep cuts, beginner guitar memories, and the undeniable brilliance of “Last Dance with Mary Jane.” Jimmy then performs an acoustic version live in studio that immediately makes everyone forget they spent the previous hour roasting Primitive Radio Gods.But the true MVP moment of this entire episode? Jimmy's AutoZone story. A random guy confidently tells him he looks like “Earl Smith” — apparently the legendary frontman of Aerosmith now has the name of a retired high school baseball coach from Festus. Congratulations to the world on accidentally creating the greatest fake musician name in history.This episode has everything:90s alt-rock chaosTom Petty appreciationaggressive music opinionsweirdly emotional radio nostalgiaGeo Metro memoriesgrocery store soundtrack analysisand a new tribute band idea called EARL SMITHJust another completely reasonable daily comedy experience from The Rizzuto Show. Because if we're not yelling about Fastball in 2026, what are we even doing anymore?And yes… somebody definitely threatened to drive off a bridge because of Primitive Radio Gods.A completely stable and emotionally healthy daily comedy show.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

If you're going through something difficult take courage from this quote that came across my path last week. "Most troubles are not as black as they seem if you pull them into the sunshine and shine the light on them." - Robert Alden.

What if the crowd isn't always right? From a time when handwashing was mocked to when tulips were worth more than houses, history reminds us that popular opinion can miss the truth. In this episode, we walk through Holy Week—from Palm Sunday to Easter—uncovering powerful, everyday lessons about faith, purpose, betrayal, perseverance, and hope. This isn't just a story about what happened then—it's an invitation to rethink what you believe now, stand firm when the crowd shifts, and discover how even the darkest moments can lead to resurrection. The song we used for the intro was "Are You Happy" by Primitive Radio Gods.

A couple of quotes from today's episode. "Sometimes we get so busy focusing on the physical that we forget the rest of it all." "Wondering and pondering are vital to really living." This is especially true if we want to live a Happy Life. One of the easiest ways to get to wondering is by wandering. Giving ourselves space to just walk. Not to think. Not to do. To just be.  Because we wonder as we wander, but we don't wander when we wonder. We would also like to give a special thanks to James Kocian, for the use of his amazing songs "Light As A Feather", "More Beautiful", "NPRrrr Music Box" and "NPRrrr Synth".

St. Patrick's Day, International Day of Happiness and the Paralympics so eloquently tell us that we are all on the same team, team human being. Paralympic snowboarder, Brenna Huckaby's parents told Brenna, “We just want you to find happiness in who you are because you are the gold, and we love you.” Jason Brown, Olympic figure skater said, "When you can embrace and see how much you're supported and loved, that's winning." So smile, because your life is Olympic, you are the gold and you've already won! If you would like to help us spread the Happy we would appreciate it greatlyPayPal: www.PayPal.me/StevoHaysCash App: $HappyLifeStudiosZelle: StevoHays@gmail.comVenmo: @StevoHaysBuy Me A Coffee: buymeacoffee.com/HappyLifeStudioCheck: Payable to Hays Ministries or Steve Hays and send to 27240 213th Place S.E.

Olympic Smiling isn't a sport in the Olympics, but if it was, here are my top contenders for the podium. Listen and be inspired as we talk about the Happy of the Olympics, celebrating the start of the Paralympics. There are some great stories in here that will motivate you and increase your Happy! As Google would tell you... “The Paralympics are widely considered as, or in some cases more, motivational than the Olympics, as they showcase elite athleticism alongside stories of overcoming immense physical, social, and personal obstacles. While Olympic broadcasts often focus on high-stakes competition, the Paralympic Games are recognized for fostering profound inspiration, and highlighting the extraordinary adaptability of the human body.” - GoogleHere is a link for The Nor-Way video we talked about https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AIi6IqP7-bMWe would also like to give a special thanks to James Kocian, for the use of the song "Mission" that he created for Happy Life Studios.

“What you get by achieving your goals is not as important as what you become by achieving them” - Henry David Thoreau. So, what kind of a person would you like to become this year? Many rely on New Year's resolutions to help get them there. Unfortunately, resolutions don't work for a lot of people; search online and find out for yourself. The statistics are staggering. When our resolution attempts fail, we tend to stay the same person year after year. The good news is, WE HAVE A SOLUTION, UP YOUR RESOLUTIONS. Say "so long" to New Year's Resolutions and Upgrade them instead. So up your resolutions and become the person you desire to be this year.Here are some past episodes that go into more detail on how to create a New Years Theme. Enjoy and become the person you want to be.3P's In A Pod https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/happylife/episodes/2025-01-13T05_00_00-08_00MLK & HLS https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/happylife/episodes/2024-01-15T05_00_00-08_00 Better Than A Resolution https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/happylife/episodes/2025-01-06T05_00_00-08_00Toothbrush https://www.podomatic.com/podcasts/happylife/episodes/2025-01-27T05_00_00-08_00We would like to thank James Kocian, for the use of his songs "Another Perfect Day", "Head Boppin", "Light As A Feather" and "TEDish".

Labor has such a negative connotation to so many, but why? We have an idea or two on that. The question is, "Can I be comfortable with allowing time to do it's work?" Believe it or not, patience isn't anxiously waiting for something to happen—it's not putting up with delays or setbacks until our desires are accomplished or completed. Patience isn't just an attribute or virtue, it can also be a lifestyle. When that happens, Labor starts to become enjoyable. Pace and patience are some of the best ways our work, our jobs, our labor, our service becomes Happy. Ralph Waldo Emerson tells us it's the hardest working Mother of All's secret, and it should become ours as well.Listen and share, and you'll be become Happier already.Nature Is Speaking – Julia Roberts is Mother Nature from Conservation International link https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WmVLcj-XKnM.  Toki Motivation link https://www.enliventhemind.com/motivational-quote-guides/ralph-waldo-emerson-quote-about-patience-adopt-the-pace-of-nature/The song we used for the intro was "Are You Happy" by Primitive Radio Gods.

When life isn't fair, when tragedy strikes, when Shtuff Happens; our response or reaction is our choice. We can either rage or reach out. If you wish to keep your Happy, look for someone to help. If you wish to become something quite the opposite of Happy, then look for someone to blame instead. In this week's episode we talk about the tragedy that happened in Texas with the flooding of the Guadalupe River over the 4th of July weekend this year, only we talk about it from a perspective unfortunately not heard by many. We actually had many options for what we could have titled this episode, but we chose "Shtuff Happens Seek Higher Ground," because when Shtuff Happens, that's the best way to overcome it. What does it look like to Seek Higher Ground? Listen and find out. You'll be Happy you did. The song we used for the intro was "Are You Happy" by Primitive Radio Gods.

Courtney Milan said “No man is broken because bad things happen to him. He's broken because he doesn't keep going after those things happen.” So what do you do when shtuff happens? I think there are a few good options. You can make shtuff happen, get shtuff done or even get your shtuff together, but to do any of those we need to flush the shtuff that happened first. This episode will help you with what to do when you're in the deep shtuff.So listen and find out how as we tag on to last week's episode that we recorded with Joe "MoJoe" McCarthy of MoJoe Studio.Special thanks to our friend Dave who shared his vulnerable story, heart and wisdom and then let us share it with you.

If we can't go hand in hand, I don't want to go." - Hazel Scott"For to be free is not merely to cast off one's chains, but to live in a way that respects and enhances the freedom of others." - Nelson Mandela"Liberty, when it begins to take root, is a plant of rapid growth". - George Washington"I wonder if Humpty Dumpty felt free." - meEggshells are a problem of freedom.

Be You! We've talked about it before, and we're definitely not the only ones. Being yourself is a very popular topic these days. However, it doesn't just happen. It does take some work. Much like baking cookies. Today we want to share some word cookies from some pretty notable "bakers" to help you become the you that you want to become. And who doesn't like cookies? Listen and share these cookies with someone else who could use some Happy, because not too many things can make someone Happy like a cookie can. Especially these cookies!.Here's the link for Milos Timotic's article “The Most Inspiring Personal Growth Quotes You Need To Read” where we got a lot of these word cookies from. https://trafft.com/personal-growth-quotes/We would also like to give a special thanks to James Kocian, for the use of his amazing songs "Another Perfect Day" and "TEDish".

Did you know that weirdness is hereditary? Yeah, you get it from your kids. Did you catch that? Because the best things in life aren't taught, they're caught. Last week we talked about some of the not so serious things my mom taught me and it came to my attention that I might have been a little hard on her. So this week I decided to talk about the things I caught from her as well. And a few things from my dad also. Listen and share, you'll be Happy you did. What are you spreading?

Instead of the F word try the Nevertheless word and see what happens.

If Arnold Schwarzenegger loves Easter, maybe we should to. I mean, nobody wants to make Arnold angry!

Happy International Day of Happiness! It might seem like a mouthful of words, but that would be fitting because it's a heart-full of Holiday. And If you want to harvest Happy, you will need a good sickle. If you want to BE Happy—not just on this world-wide special day celebrated all over the globe, but EVERYday—try focusing on giving it away, not getting it some day. Now that's a good sickle. Let's harvest some Happy, so we can turn around and hand out ours.The songs we used in this episode are "Be Happy" by Mary J.

My toothbrush has been talking to me lately. Should I be concerned?Aristotle said "Well begun is half done" but AriStevo says "Well begun is half done, but not even close to completely done". How we start our day, how we start our week, how we start our year is important if we want "life to be good", as Joe Walsh would sing, because well begun is half done. Not only has my New Year's theme this year been changing me for the better, I have also noticed that my themes from years past have been doing the same. So let's talk about that. You'll be encouraged, not to mention Happy you did. Please share with someone else who could use a little more Happy in their lives and let's change this world together.  Here's the link to the Harvard review article I mentioned https://hbr.org/2025/01/the-insidious-effects-of-hurryingThe songs we used in this episode are "Are You Happy" by Primitive Radio Gods, "Life's Been Good" by Joe Walsh and "Make Someone Happy" by Jimmy Durante.

What in the world is a DOINKonym and what does it have to do with Martin Luther King, Jr.? In this episode, we will give you 5 DOINKonyms to help you win.  "Oftentimes change takes a while...especially change that means the most, or should I say, change that is most needed?" Here is a view of Martin Luther King's I Have a Dream speech (as well as The March on Washington D.C. where it happened), that you probably haven't heard or thought of before. I hope you listen in because it's reality and it's encouraging to those of us who don't feel like we could ever measure up. If Martin Luther King Jr. were alive today, what would he say? What would he tell us?The songs we used in this episode are "Are You Happy" by Primitive Radio Gods and "Make Someone Happy" by Jimmy Durante.

Whether it's a New Years Theme we choose to go with (which we recommend at Happy Life Studios) or New Years Resolutions, if we do them right, they will change our life.  However, setting them isn't enough. Oftentimes our themes, goals or resolutions won't happen on their own. Like we haave said several times "If we let it happen it won't happen".

The incredible Simone Biles once said that smiling doesn't win Gold, but we think it does, and we're not the only ones. From handsprings to flips to twists to Gold to GOAT, Simone Biles has a lot to say about living a Happy life and going for the gold. This is so important, because sometimes instead of going for the gold we find ourselves avoiding pain or getting hurt instead. Join us as we finish our conversation from last week's episode Small Flags HL425, you'll be Happy you did.The songs we used in this episode are "Gloom, Despair, Agony On Me" by Arbie Parnell, "Are You Happy" by Primitive Radio Gods, "Just the Two Of Us" by Grover Washington Jr. and Bill Withers, and "Smile" by Jimmy Durante.

The podcast is back at full strength as Sean returns to the co-chair on this one. You would think all that time away would give us time to find new and exciting things to talk about, but thankfully we immediately fall back into our habit of talking about garbage no one has cared about for literal decades. This time around there's a long discussion about Siskel and Ebert's At the Movies and the insane opinions of these two maniacs: Pleasantville being better than Saving Private Ryan, Babe: Pig in the City also being better than Saving Private Ryan, Black Stallion being better than Raging Bull, and Siskel's completely unsurprising love of Star 80. We also discuss that one scene in A Very Brady Sequel, the Action Boyz watching Godfrey Ho movies, getting squeezed out like a toothpaste roller, The Long Kiss Goodnight, the potential end to Sean's Tubi Corner, Jim Carrey's Foghat Man character, Shawn Hatosy sliding down a prop slide, the VHS copy of Medium Cool that destroyed Brad's VCR, Annie, the positive side of Grease 2, the many scores of Tangerine Dream, AIM screen names based on the surfing movie Blue Crush, God Lives Underwater vs. Primitive Radio Gods vs. Godsmack, and of course MTV's Fear. --- Website: www.queenvenerator.com Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/queenvenerator/ Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/queenvenerator.bsky.social

We've discussed close to 150 one hit wonders on the podcast at this point, but none have had as bizarre of a series of events that led to a hit as Primitive Radio Gods. Producer Matt Kelly considers “Standing Outside A Broken Phone Booth With Money In My Hand” not only a song title that he's sure to butcher in this episode, but also a song that he considers one of the greatest of the 90s. Does the rest of the band's catalog live up to the moody vibe of this jam though? This week, we try to figure out if Primitive Radio Gods leave us downhearted baby, or if we should bathe ourselves in the zebra flesh of this unique musical project.

Mark and Jonny Numb (@jonnyNumb on Twitter) discuss the 2017 film Super Dark Times.

In Folge 4 nehme ich Stellung zu dem "Vorwurf", ich hätte es in letzter Zeit "ganz schön schleifen lassen", was die Präsenz in der Öffentlichkeit angeht. Garniert wie immer mit viel guter Musik!

This segment stars with Fro ranting about “flat Earthers” and the cult known as Scientology. Jack has no idea that John Travolta is among the Hollywood crazies who believe in this malarkey. Jack also has no idea why anyone – famous or not – would live in the Hollywood hills. Moving on, Jack asks if anyone has watched the Animaniacs reboot on Hulu. Discussing segments from the show’s original run leads Fro to tell a story involving his bicycle and a crazy kid in his neighborhood, which nearly kills Jack in laughter. “Is it hot in here, or is it just me?” Concluding this episode, Jack presents two stories for “How Fucking Dumb Are You?” The band Trapt continues to exist, this time getting their Facebook account deleted for a Proud Boys-related post. In keeping with this podcast’s theme of never staying on-topic, this segues into Jack discussing ridiculously long song and album titles. Elsewhere, in Russia, Darwinism strikes again as local buffoons end up in hospital for drinking hand sanitizer. Fro goes off about hand sanitizer, bringing this episode to a riveting end. On that note, subscribe to Nate’s channel on YouTube, and wear a damn face mask! --- Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/hardlyfocused/support

In this episode, we are joined by our long-time friend and bandmate Henry for a discussion on everything from Aliens, Aliens BEING GOD, the universe as a whole, Religion and Spirituality, Coronavirus, and the current pandemic and quarantine times and how weird that is. We somehow end up on the topics of Donald Trump, Joe Biden choosing Kamala Harris as his VP, the removal of confederate monuments, the current civil discourse, talking to family members with differing opinions on politics, and how to not kill one another, defunding the police, and a LOT of other political ramblings. And no conversation between the three of us ever happens without discussing music. We spoke on spanning genres including artists such as Dishwalla, Tonic, Primitive Radio Gods, Oasis, Radiohead, Coldplay, Travis, and loads more.

This week, our passions oscillate wildly as we discuss the debuts of forgotten one-hit wonders Primitive Radio Gods, and the unforgettable (for better or worse) Hole. How did that phone booth get broken? Possibly by Hadrian's grunge-inspired rage! View the complete rankings: bit.ly/InOur1990s
