Episode DescriptionNumber 31 on the countdown. First zoo animal on Prozac. JD is joined by Duxoop from Toledo — broadcasting from the actual birthplace of Gus the polar bear — plus Andrew from Winnipeg and Dave from Montreal to dig into one of the most quietly beloved songs in the Hip catalogue.The panel gets into the Adam Kasper production that makes In Between Evolution sound the way it does, Rob Baker's untouchable outro solo, the Hip Museum's wonderfully unhinged George W. Bush theory, and the wordplay hiding in plain sight — because it was never what's troubling Gus. It's what's troubling us.Fair warning: this one gets emotional. Duxoop tells us what the lyrics did to him last year from a nursing home wheelchair, and Dave tells us about his friend Al — nickname Gus — and the cover band he's fronting at Al's memorial this Friday. Then the whole thing derails beautifully into a full inventory of every animal in the Hip discography.Explicit language. Recorded live on YouTube.On the PanelJD — hostDuxoop from Toledo — self-described part polar bear; born-in-Toledo credentials, same as GusAndrew from Winnipeg — arrived with facts and a News Radio shirt; host of Soup Full of RadioDave from Montreal — saw the Hip in Central Park; frontman of brand-new Hip cover band Colonel MustardTale of the TapePulled from The Hip Handbook, which amalgamates HipBase and setlist.fm data. Album In Between Evolution (2004) Producer Adam Kasper, recorded in Seattle Single Third single from the record Countdown position No. 31 on the Top 40 Times played live 327 First played October 27, 2003 Last played August 18, 2016 — the Ottawa show As an opener Once As an encore Five times Poll Results Love it 52% Like it 36% Tolerate it 10% Skip it 1% Never heard of it 1% Possibly the most varied — and most indecisive — poll spread of the series so far. Duxoop's verdict: "That's crazy to me. These numbers should be way more lopsided toward the top."Live Version FeaturedOttawa, 2004 — the Grey Cup halftime show. Andrew remembers watching it live and everyone around him asking why the band was opening the biggest gig of the year with a brand-new song. (They went into Courage right after.)What We Talked AboutThe Album That Everyone Slept OnIn Between Evolution debuted at No. 1 in Canada on roughly 22,500 first-week copies — then got knocked off the top by Avril Lavigne's new album.Certified platinum in Canada that September. Dave notes it was one of the last Hip records to move real units.Where does this song sit in the career arc? The panel lands on "the end of the middle" rather than the dawn of the final third.Andrew's take: Gus is the first song on the record that sounds like the Hip you already knew — you lean back in the chair. Heaven Is a Better Place Today, Summer's Killing Us and Vaccination Scar are louder neighbours, so Gus hides in the first five.Adam Kasper and the Seattle SoundAndrew looked up Kasper's credits and it clicked: Soundgarden's Down on the Upside, Queens of the Stone Age's Songs for the Deaf, Pearl Jam's self-titled (the avocado one), Foo Fighters' One by One.Same studio was hosting the Big Fish and Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind soundtracks around the time this record was being made.The panel agrees Gus has a "weirdly familiar, warm Hip sound" — it could have sat on Day for Night with different production, or on Music at Work. Maybe it was on the shelf a while.Rob Baker's OutroUniversal agreement: whichever live version you pull up, Baker is on fire. "A real showcase for him."Dave's sharpest observation of the night — Gord never rants over this solo the way he does over others. It always gets its space, and that may be the only ad-lib that separates the live song from the record.Gus HimselfBorn 1985 at the Toledo Zoo, died August 27, 2013. A 700-pound icon of the Central Park Zoo, seen by over 20 million visitors.Began swimming obsessively — up to 12 hours a day — in the 1990s. Reporters called him neurotic, depressed and flaky, and he became a symbol of the stress of living in New York.The first zoo animal in history to be treated with Prozac. Also got a jacuzzi and, at one point, two girlfriends. Duxoop: "Why is he the one on Prozac and not me?"Gord wrote the song in 2004, nine years before Gus died — so this wasn't an obituary. He'd seen the bear and then done the second-sourcing, as Gord always did.There's a children's book called What's Worrying Gus? The True Story of a Big City Bear. On Amazon, the cover has Gus on a therapist's couch.The Toledo ConnectionThe Hip played the Toledo Zoo twice in the '90s — where Gus was born.When they played Toledo in 2004, Gus was the show opener. The stats say it only ever opened once, so that was absolutely on purpose.The Bush TheoryThe Hip Museum reads Gus as partly about George W. Bush and the invasion of Iraq. Andrew read the paragraph aloud; it describes the two as "lovable, loutish, and incredibly accomplished guys… not bad for a pair of dudes with limited mental capacity."JD's verdict: lots of love for the Hip Museum, but that one's a reach.Gus / UsDave's thesis: he doesn't hear a bear at all. "It's not what's troubling Gus. It's what's troubling us." He's been on that line for twenty years.JD points out the Gordism that makes it work — dropping the G, so "troublin' us" and "troubling Gus" are phonetically the same thing.Duxoop extends it: we've all watched a zoo animal pace or swim figure eights, and that should be troubling us.On the lyrics generally: Gord's word-smithery rewards straining to hear it, and the panel confesses to mumbling through parts for two decades. Compared to Nautical Disaster — all story, no chorus, no pattern — Gus is manageable, but only just.Duxoop's StoryLast year, when the countdown hit No. 31, Duxoop was three months into a nursing home stay with medical issues. Twenty-odd years earlier he'd started going to karaoke — big, scary-looking, socially awkward, mistaken for the bouncer. Now he was in his 60s, in a wheelchair, and the line landed like a ton of bricks: old and grey, and no one's afraid anymore.He sang it at the nursing home. "I don't think I've ever sung a Hip song with more feeling than I do with Gus." Grace, Too he can't fake — he feels like a schmuck trying to match Gord's intensity. Gus he doesn't fake.And after a week of thinking about it for this episode, he made a bold statement: Gus is now his favourite Tragically Hip song, over Grace, Too.Dave's Story — Al, Gus, and Colonel MustardDave's friend Al Morton died suddenly last November. They bonded over the Hip and golf at Dave's club. Al's nickname was Gus.In their fantasy football pick'em league, Al's picks stayed on the board for the rest of the NFL season. "A real lump in my throat."Al's memorial is this Friday at the Dunany Country Club in Wentworth, Quebec — halfway between Ottawa and Montreal. Ashes scattered around the course in the morning; speeches and a gathering at night, billed as his "after par-ty."The family asked for seven or eight Hip songs. Dave and friends have twenty ready, after two nights jamming at his buddy Chris's place. He made them learn Gus — he couldn't imagine doing a show for Al without it.The band is named Colonel Mustard, after Al's imported 1970s Mercedes. Wentworth, Quebec's Tragically Hip cover band. Dave waited 45 years to do this.His approach: very much not trying to be Gord. "I'm just trying to sing it with my truth."Hardest songs to sing so far — Fireworks (the National Fitness Program cadence) and Fully Completely (Gord's offbeat entrance in the middle section). Bassist John Roy has been cueing him in.Also on the setlist: Grace Too, Wheat Kings, The Good Life, Three Pistols.One BucketDave loves the way Gord says "whippoorwill" — audible in the Grey Cup version JD played. He'll be attempting it Friday."Used to be enough to make every bird stop singing." There's a lot of beauty in this song.Dave also went to bat for Sharks as an all-time Hip song — lyrically perfect, everyone gets to shine — while fully admitting he's a party of one on that.The Countdown NeighboursNo. 30 The Darkest One · No. 31 Gus · No. 32 Emperor Penguin — with Pigeon Camera at No. 28. As JD put it: their arctic phase.The Animal Album (An Idea That Got Away From Everyone)Duxoop floated it — Weird Al did a food album and a TV album, so why not a Tragically Hip animal album? The panel then attempted a full inventory:Emperor Penguin · Pigeon Camera · Dire Wolf · Problem Bears · Thompson Girl (polar bear reference) · The Bear on Music at WorkTiger the Lion · The Luxury (zoo lion) · Little Bones (a teeny tiny little cat) · Sled Dogs After DinnerWheat Kings (loon at the beginning) · Bumblebee · Leave ("in this contest, a concave nest") · Sharks · Piano Spider · I'm a Werewolf, Baby · the killer whale tank one on the box setVerdict: someone needs to make this playlist.Quotable Moments"It's not what's troubling Gus. It's what's troubling us. And that's just the best." — Dave from Montreal"Gord Downie sells the fuck out of this song. He sells the flakiness of the bear. He sells the confusion of the person watching it being like, why aren't you like a real bear?" — Dave from Montreal"It's funny — we're happy to hear a song about a sad animal." — Andrew from Winnipeg"Gus is like you're leaning back in your chair and relaxing a bit." — Andrew from Winnipeg"Grace, Too I feel like I'm faking it. Gus, man, I don't fake that one." — Duxoop from Toledo"It's up to us now to keep these songs alive." — Dave from Montreal"I live for that rare occasion where somebody goes, who was that song by? I got to look up that artist — and I get to make a new Hip fan." — Duxoop from ToledoMentioned in This EpisodeThe Hip Handbook — free Top 40 breakdown with episode links: thehiphandbook.tthpods.comHipBase and setlist.fm — live-stat sources behind the Tale of the TapeThe Hip Museum — source of the Gus / George W.

There's a local Toledo tribute on Friday collecting donations for the Dublin Simon Community, the homelessness charity Hansard cared deeply about. Duxoop, who was himself homeless for a couple of years recently: "I would definitely promote that."Andrew from WinnipegSoup Full of Radio — weekly on UMFM in Winnipeg.

JD's reiteration: this stuff is free forever, don't worry if you can't swing it.The Gathering — KingstonRegistration deadline is Friday for all activities. (If you're hearing this on the podcast feed, you've likely missed it.)Three days in Kingston for the 10th anniversary of the Hip's final show: a brunch, an album listening party, a first-day mixer, and hotel blocks.

From MPR News, Art Hounds are members of the Minnesota arts community who look beyond their own work to highlight what's exciting in local art.Want to be an Art Hound? Submit here.A world-class music festival in the Brainerd Lakes Hedy Holmberg spends the summers by Bay Lake in the Brainerd Lakes Region. In the past five years, she's been attending the Lakes Area Music Festival, which she calls a hidden gem. The series kicks off Friday and runs through Aug. 23 with a series of concerts. Some of the highlights, Holmberg says, are Friday night's gala opening and a performance of Carmen Aug. 14 and 16, both at the Gichi-ziibi Center for the Arts. She also loves bringing her grandchildren to the family-friendly Sound Garden event at the Northland Arboretum in Baxter, in which musicians perform throughout the gardens; that free event is Saturday, Aug. 1, at 10 a.m. Many of the concerts are also livestreamed. Holmberg says, "It is an absolute hidden gem to have these world-class musicians from all over the world come to Brainerd, Minn., and put on these amazing, high-quality, very professional concerts and other events. It's absolutely astounding to me. “And part of it is when we talk to the musicians, they talk about how much they love to come up here, how welcoming the community is. They stay with people in their lake homes. They develop a relationship with them over the years. I just can't say enough about it." Jazz dance takes center stage Susana di Palma is the founder and advisory artistic director of Zorango Flamenco Dance Theater. She wants dance lovers to know about Rhythmically Speaking's new show, Groovers & Makers, in which four choreographers will premiere new works with their takes on jazz dance. Rhythmically Speaking focuses on jazz, tap and American social dance styles, and di Palma says you'll leave wanting to dance yourself. The show runs Thursday through Saturday at the Southern Theater in Minneapolis. Di Palma is a big fan of artistic director Erinn Liebhard: "Erin's piece will be [about] time, good times and time travels. She is joined by three other choreographers that are all amazing. One is a great angel of a choreographer, Karla Grotting, and she is a master. And then there are two other choreographers: from New York, Maiya Redding, and Alexis Robbins from Connecticut." A graffiti pioneer steps into the gallery Installation artist Eric Rieger, who works under the name Hot Tea, started graffiti writing in 1996 and "immediately gravitated" to the work of George Thompson (aka EWOK). Thompson's exhibit "Zigged When I Should've Zagged" opens Friday and focuses on his studio practice as it has evolved from his graffiti writing. The exhibit includes nine works on paper created since 2020 as well as a print of his 2019 work "Cop Car." The exhibit is presented by Burlesque of North America, which is also launching a limited-edition zine featuring photographs of decades of Thompson's graffiti. The show at the Southside Preservation Society in Minneapolis runs through Aug. 28. Friday's launch from 7-10 p.m. includes a chance to screen-print a t-shirt with one of Thompson's designs. Rieger describes Thompon's style: "I would describe the artwork as almost, like, otherworldly, but also very familiar. It's almost like you're looking at a still life, but from like the year 30,000."

Today on Let There Be Talk, I've got one of the greatest rock drummers of all time joining me—Matt Cameron. When you talk about musicians who helped shape the sound of Seattle and completely change the course of rock music, Matt Cameron is at the top of the list. From his groundbreaking work with Soundgarden, to the emotional brilliance of Temple of the Dog, to holding down the drum throne in Pearl Jam for over a quarter century, his résumé is simply untouchable. Matt's playing has always been the perfect combination of power, groove, creativity, and precision. Whether it's the odd-time signatures of "Gun," the thunder of "Rusty Cage," the emotion of "Hunger Strike," or the driving force behind Pearl Jam's incredible live shows, he's always served the song while pushing the music forward. Today we dive into his incredible journey—from the early Seattle club days and the explosion of the grunge movement, to recording legendary albums, life on the road, working with Chris Cornell, and so many other iconic musicians, and what keeps him inspired after decades at the highest level. If you're a fan of rock, drumming, songwriting, or just hearing stories from someone who's truly lived music history, you're going to love this episode. Please welcome the one and only Matt Cameron.

jD convenes the expert panel to dissect "700 Ft Ceiling," the song that lands like a baseball bat to the face right in the middle of Trouble at the Henhouse.The conversation starts warm — everyone's summertime Hip pick, from "Membership" to "Morning Moon" to "Summer's Killing Us" — before turning to the puzzle at the centre of the track: what exactly is a 700-foot ceiling? (Aviation term. Lowest layer of broken or overcast cloud sitting 700 feet above ground.)The panel unpacks Gord's habit of collecting phrases for their sound rather than their meaning, the wintery outdoor-rink imagery, and the Lou Reed-flat melody that barely distinguishes verse from chorus.Things get spicy on placement. Tracy calls it filler and skips it. Mikk and Jamie agree the song detonates a gorgeous opening run — "Gift Shop," "Springtime in Vienna," "Ahead by a Century," "Don't Wake Daddy," "Flamenco" — and kicks off what Jamie dubs the album's weird second half alongside "Butts Wigglin'" and "Coconut Cream." The Kids in the Hall theory gets floated. So does the grunge theory. Everyone concedes it hit much harder live than it ever did on record.Then the episode's real gift: Mick and Jamie tell the story of renting the Bathhouse for a weekend — sleeping in the studio, playing pool while spinning We Are the Same on vinyl, Billy Ray wandering in at 10pm with stories, engineer Niles behind the board, Gord's training bike still parked where he left it. Once-in-a-lifetime stuff, told well.Next week's shuffle: "Gus: The Polar Bear from Central Park" from In Between Evolution.Key Quotes"It's like an alarm clock goes off." — Mik, on where the song lands on the album"It is like a baseball bat in the face." — jD"Think about how many shows they played after 2004 that they did not play this song. That's why it ranks low. Guys, I'm telling it like it is." — Jamie"I think this is kind of Gord's secret talent — he listens better than everybody." — Mik"He says '700-foot ceiling' like four times, but the second or third time it's '700 and sinking,' which is just cool." — Jamie"It kind of felt very lived in. There was nothing you couldn't touch, nothing you couldn't sit on." — Mik, on the Bathhouse"I'll get emotional if I talk about it." — Jamie, on being shown the band's jam space"Well, I know what we forgot to do this week. We forgot to listen to the goddamn song." — jDTale of the Tape — Trouble at the HenhouseReleased May 7, 1996 — the band's first simultaneous Canada/USA releaseWinner, 1997 Juno Award for Album of the YearRecord 5 of 13Self-produced with Mark Vreeken — the only time the band worked without an outside producerRecorded at the Bathhouse"700 Ft Ceiling" live stats (via The Hip Base and setlist.fm)Played live 130 times — 3 times as an opener, 7 times as an encoreFirst played October 21, 1995Last played November 27, 2004 (retired; not performed on the final tour)Ranked #76 in the Tragically Hip Top 169 countdown — did not crack the Top 40This week's poll: 47% / 47% split, with 6% "tolerating" it.Songs & Albums MentionedTragically Hip songs700 Ft Ceiling · Membership · Morning Moon · Coffee Girl · The Depression Suite · Summer's Killing Us · You're Not the Ocean · Ahead by a Century · Gift Shop · Springtime in Vienna · Don't Wake Daddy · Flamenco · Butts Wigglin' · Apartment Song · Coconut Cream · Let's Stay Engaged · Sherpa · Put It Off · New Orleans Is Sinking · Little Bones · Titanic Terrarium · Emergency · FireworksTragically Hip albumsTrouble at the Henhouse · Day for Night · Fully Completely · Road Apples · Phantom Power · We Are the Same · In Between Evolution · Live Between UsOther referencesKids in the Hall: Brain Candy — source of "Butts Wigglin'"Rick Beato's interview with Billy Joel — the "vowel movements" idea Joel credits to Keith RichardsGrunge-era touchstones: Pearl Jam, Soundgarden, CreedLou Reed — Tracy's comparison for Gord's vocal delivery on this trackIt's a Good Life If You Don't Weaken — the stage adaptation, seen in Hamilton, now touringTom Green's interview with Paul Langlois, filmed in the Bathhouse jam spacePeople MentionedGord Downie · Paul LangloisBilly Ray — Bathhouse caretaker and keeper of the storiesNiles Spencer — Bathhouse engineerMark Vreeken — co-producer, Trouble at the HenhousePatrick Downey — filming Billy Ray for the documentaryGreg — JD's co-host on the earlier podcast seriesLinks & PlugsKingston weekend events — Friday mixer at a pub · live record listening party August 21 at 4:30 at a pub · Sunday brunch at Morrison's.

Median valta, kaksinaismoralismi ja heikompien hyväksikäyttö, valehtelevat poliitikot, uskonto vallan välineenä… yhteiskunnalliset teemat ja hieno musiikki, kaikki se, mikä tekee Queensrychestä ainutlaatuisen.

This week's episode is devoted to November 2, 2024, when Night Demon performed in Montreal, Quebec, Canada alongside King Diamond and Overkill. We begin the tale with the drive north from Boston, a bit of UFO nerding out, and a treacherous border crossing gone smoothly. Then we dig into the Montreal show, where the guys played a blinder of a gig in front of a raucous and enthusiastic crowd, with extra love for "Dawnrider" and good friends on hand. All was well, you will hear, notwithstanding the pesky language barrier.Become a subscriber today at nightdemon.net/subscriber.

Pophouse is one of the founding investors of the ABBA Voyage avatar show, and is also involved in the upcoming KISS avatar production. The deal was announced via a press release, with Billboard further reporting the 50-percent stake. Longtime Iron Maiden manager Rod Smallwood said, “I am very excited about our relationship with Pophouse and the ability we now have to pursue, facilitate, and finance our many plans and dreams quicker than we ever hoped. The interest in the band has never been bigger and this strategic partnership, which we've been quietly working together on now for over a year, has already had results with the progress on the Infinite Dreams Museum and the filming of the current show.” (Consequence)

Ce 1er juillet, Marjorie Hache orchestre une nouvelle édition de Pop-Rock Station. Les classiques s'enchaînent avec The Who, The Cure, AC/DC, Deportivo, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Soundgarden, The 5.6.7.8's, Supergrass, The Velvet Underground, Alice Cooper, Infectious Grooves, The White Stripes, Arctic Monkeys, Bob Dylan et Kate Bush. L'animatrice souligne le 81e anniversaire de Debbie Harry avec "Rip Her To Shreds" de Blondie. En matière de découvertes, Suede ouvre le bal avec "Emotionally Unavailable", issu de la réédition de son disque "Antidepressants". PJ Harvey dévoile l'envoûtant "Voyager", inspiré par la conquête spatiale, tandis que les Lambrini Girls et le duo Deary rejoignent la sélection. La primeur de la soirée met en lumière les Australiens de Pond, qui offrent le morceau "Two Hands", extrait de leur onzième album "Terrestrial". L'album de la semaine s'attarde sur "Songs Of Personal Loss and Protest" de Jon Spencer, porté par "Give It Up For The Devil" qui mêle urgence punk et blues new-yorkais. Enfin, la reprise de la soirée s'annonce bouleversante : le regretté Charles Bradley, surnommé le "Screaming Eagle of Soul", transfigure le mythique "Heart Of Gold" de Neil Young avec une intensité vocale déchirante.

Rock Talk Studio: Reviewing Rock 'n' Roll Books and Documentaries
Looking for your next great rock n' roll read? In this episode I rank the Top 5 best rock books of 2026 so far. From the definitive history of The Clash and The Rolling Stones to a fresh look at the grunge movement and the glory days of AOR radio, we're breaking down the books that every rock fan needs on their shelf.Support the showemail Big Rick at:info@rocktalkstudio.com
By 1994, the Seattle grunge explosion was starting to fracture, but Soundgarden responded by releasing a massive, hour-plus behemoth that completely defied expectations. Superunknown traded the straight-ahead aggressive metal of their earlier work for a dark, sprawling mix of weird time signatures, heavy Black Sabbath-style riffs, and Beatlesque psychedelia. This week, the Random Album Generator gives us the commercial peak of the grunge era—a 15-track journey through depression, isolation, and undeniable sonic genius.Inside This Episode:First Half Reaction: We're splitting this 15-track 90s CD down the middle. If you're listening with us, hit pause after track seven, "Black Hole Sun." Jeremy and Jon react to the punishingly heavy grooves of "My Wave" and "Fell on Black Days," and discuss how the band managed to make odd-meter time signatures sound like stadium anthems.5 Fast Facts: We uncover the hilarious misread that gave the album its title, the real-life street performer behind "Spoonman," and the hidden image inside the distorted album cover art.Second Half & Final Thoughts: We hit play on the back half of the record and dive into the darker, slower, and more experimental tracks like "4th of July" and "Like Suicide." Does the album justify its massive runtime, or does it drag at the end?The Verdict & Standout Tracks: Jeremy and Jon lock in their 3 essential tracks. Is this the absolute pinnacle of 90s alternative rock?Join the Polyphonic Press Community: Love collecting classic vinyl and want to talk about? Reach out and let us know!

The Rolling Stones and Soundgarden are two of the most influential bands in the history of rock – and two new books tell their stories. The Rolling Stones by Bob Spitz is a history of the band, but also of drugs, women and feuds. In today's episode, the author gives Here & Now's Indira Lakshmanan a behind-the-scenes look at songs like “(I Can't Get No) Satisfaction” and “Gimme Shelter.” Then, Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil joins Morning Edition's A Martínez for a conversation about A Screaming Life, which tells the story of the band from its roots in Seattle's grunge scene.To listen to Book of the Day sponsor-free and support NPR's book coverage, sign up for Book of the Day+ at plus.npr.org/bookofthedaySee pcm.adswizz.com for information about our collection and use of personal data for sponsorship and to manage your podcast sponsorship preferences.NPR Privacy Policy

Rock Talk Studio: Reviewing Rock 'n' Roll Books and Documentaries
Grunge is often told as a Seattle story. But Kim Thayil's new memoir, A Screaming Life: Into the Superunknown with Soundgarden and Beyond, reveals a deeper and more personal look at how it all came together. In this episode, we look at Soundgarden from a whole new angle through the eyes of one of the band's founding members. Thayil's story traces the community, friendships, outsider identity, and creative values that helped shape not only Soundgarden, but the sound and spirit of grunge itself. Support the showemail Big Rick at:info@rocktalkstudio.com
Kim Thayil of Soundgarden joins us on the program to talk about his new book!
Mark Menghi has assembled an all-star tribute to Chris Cornell called King Ultramega. It is an all-consuming project for him as he is not only gathering the musicians, but also producing and planning the recordings, and contributing bass. Six songs have been released since Summer 2025's first release, Soundgarden's "Rusty Cage", with four more recordings on the horizon. All ten tracks in total will stretch the length of Chris Cornell's career, from Soundgarden to Temple Of The Dog and Audioslave. You can follow along with King Ultramega on social media, listen to these songs on your favorite streaming apps, or visit the website for merch and music videos at kingultramega.com. The first physical release has been a 12 inch single of "Rusty Cage" and "The Day I Tried To Live", which is available through Reigning Phoenix Music. Thanks to Mark Menghi for being a guest on Episode 237 of A-SIDES.
Nick welcomes music journalist Jim Ryan from Forbes.com back to the podcast to talk about the new Earth, Wind & Fire documentary and his recent interviews with Soundgarden guitarist Kim Thayil and Jon Spencer of The Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. They also review recent concerts by George Clinton & Parliament-Funkadelic, Phil Manzanera, and Santana with The Doobie Brothers. Along the way, they discuss the parking headaches at Credit Union 1 Amphitheatre and the troubling trend of outdoor venues keeping shows going during dangerous weather. Later, Esmeralda Leon joins Nick to read listener emails and talk about the new Martin Short documentary. That conversation leads to a deep dive into some of Short's wildest work, including the cult favorite Clifford. They also chat about Top Gun, Family Guy, Bob's Burgers, and a handful of other topics that somehow all connect by the end. Trust us, it makes sense when you hear it. [Ep 464]
This week on Pop Culture Yearbook, we dive deep into Dirt, the landmark 1992 album from Alice in Chains that helped define the darker, heavier side of the Seattle grunge explosion. Dave from Totally 80s and 90s Recall join us to break down classic tracks like “Would?,” “Rooster,” “Them Bones,” and “Down in a Hole,” while discussing Layne Staley's haunting vocals, Jerry Cantrell's riffs, and why the album still hits so hard.Along the way, we talk about where Dirt ranks among the greatest grunge albums ever made and how Alice in Chains stood apart from Seattle peers like Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden with a sound that was heavier, bleaker, and deeply personal.Plus, we hold a Seattle Pop Culture Draft, picking our favorite music, movies, TV shows, athletes, landmarks, and cultural icons connected to the Emerald City.

Send us Fan MailSomeone in our music family is gone, and we feel it in our bones. We open by paying tribute to Michelle, a Pearl Jam fan who didn't just show up, she helped build the community around Touring Fan Live while fighting cancer with a kind of courage that still doesn't feel real. We share what she meant to us, why her energy changed the people around her, and we play the moment Pearl Jam recognized her from the stage. After that, we do what friends do when they're trying to keep moving forward: we pour a glass and talk. It turns into a surprisingly helpful deep dive on Merlot, from aging and oak to Bordeaux-style blends, why Washington Merlot deserves more respect, and how pop culture moments like Sideways warped the way people buy wine. If you've ever said “I don't like Merlot,” we give you a few reasons to reconsider and a few questions to ask your own palate. Then we jump into Pearl Jam talk the way fans actually do it, with equal parts excitement and skepticism. Ohana Festival is around the corner, “Eddie Vedder and Friends” has everyone guessing, and the new drummer mystery keeps feeding the rumor machine. We also step back and talk about what really matters for a band at this level: chemistry, trust, and whether a new lineup can honor a massive catalog without losing the spark. We wrap with the bigger live-music reality check: tour cancellations, Ticketmaster, and the breaking point for ticket prices. And because we can't resist a time machine, we run through a June 1996 top songs list that hits everything from Soundgarden and STP to Butthole Surfers at number one.

The Black Sabbath frontman died in July 2025 at the age of 76. “It's kind of scary how it's really very accurate,” Jack Osbourne told the audience at Licensing Expo. “He will exist digitally as himself for as long as we have computers. Technology has come such a long way to where it's almost drag and drop. You could shoot a template for a commercial … literally prompt what you want Digital Ozzy to do in that commercial and you just drop it in. It's that simple now.” Sharon Osbourne added: “We're going to take it all around the world. People can talk to him and he will talk back. “Elvis died 50 years ago and everybody knows Elvis. I just want that for Ozzy.” (The Guardian)
Summer officially arrived the second a teenager accepted cash to shave off his broccoli haircut in somebody's garage like it was a shady underground stock trade. This episode of The Rizzuto Show starts with a parenting moment every adult secretly fears: your kid walks into the house saying, “Dad… I think I messed up.” Naturally, everyone assumes the car exploded or someone got arrested. Nope. Just a fresh buzzcut and instant regret.Apparently the new trend among teenage dudes is sacrificing their curls for gas money, construction jobs, or whatever weird social experiment Gen Z is running this week. The gang debates whether the broccoli boys are evolving, devolving, or accidentally forming a 1998 nu-metal tribute band. There's also concern over sunscreen, dating prospects, and whether moms are legally allowed to roast their sons immediately after a haircut disaster.Then things somehow get even more chaotic with the return of the “Three Song Challenge,” where listeners have exactly seconds to identify legendary bands based on three song titles. Sounds easy, right? Apparently not. Friday's contestants embarrassed the entire listening audience, so this episode becomes a redemption tour for humanity itself.The daily comedy show spirals through rounds featuring Pearl Jam, Def Leppard, Van Halen, Soundgarden, Blink-182, Black Sabbath, Stone Temple Pilots, Journey, Weezer, Rage Against The Machine, CCR, Smashing Pumpkins, Mötley Crüe, No Doubt, Iron Maiden, Incubus, ZZ Top, and Beastie Boys. Some callers absolutely dominate. Others sound like they've never heard music before despite living on Earth their entire lives.There are screaming kids in the background, accidental team-ups between callers, confusion, panic, and enough rock nostalgia to make your uncle punch drywall in excitement. It's basically what happens when a funny podcast combines classic rock radio, family dysfunction, and game show pressure into one beautiful trainwreck.The gang also teases discussions about dating costs, modern beauty standards, and whether the legendary “dad bod” was ever truly appreciated or if society just gaslit average men for several years. Tough questions get asked. Few answers arrive.If you love a comedy podcast loaded with sarcastic humor, music references, weird trends, parenting fails, St. Louis chaos, and daily nonsense that somehow feels therapeutic, this episode delivers all of it. This daily comedy show continues proving that absolutely nobody has things figured out — especially not the people hosting it.And honestly? If somebody offers you $50 to shave your head this summer… negotiate harder.Follow The Rizzuto Show → linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → 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.
