Mitchell Altman, an outsider artist joins the program. You can’t hear his very strange work anywhere, but John trusts him so you should too. He has several pages of notes. And those notes are all about Ween’s second album The Pod. An album as brown as can be. Barbed wire covered in mud. The dirtiest sound in the world, but it’s so good. If you think you don’t like Ween, we suggest you stop that and start worshipping Ween now. Grab a brew and play along, gulp (responsibly), and chomp a pork roll egg & cheese whenever Mitchell says a buzzword!

Jake Marino AKA Count Harriet of the brand new Trust the Process Podcast joins the program to break down the album 5 by SAULT. One of eleven studio albums released since 2019 by the prolific British music collective, Jake and John discuss how 5 redefines the concept of lo-fi, disregards any notion that lyrics need to be comprehensible, and perfectly blends a plethora of different musical genres and eras to create a contemporary classic. Grab a drink and play along, nurse a negroni (responsibly) whenever Jake says a buzzword!

Jack Kellems of Shock Therapy, better known for his work delivering food for DoorDash, joins our boy John Pagliassotti for a brand new episode of the UK’s favorite-ish music history podcast. They dive deep into The Commercial Album by The Residents released in 1980 by Ralph Records. Both the album and this episode are at times “out there”, bizarre, even spooky, but also intriguing and guaranteed to make you think. Grab a drink and play along, take a swig or two (responsibly) whenever Jack says a buzzword!
