In Episode 21 Mark and Kristi return to Record Store Day one more time (and just two days after RSD26) - to list their wishes for future releases. It's a wide-open topic limited only by imagination and what's already out. Spoiler: there's not a single Love & Rockets-related release mentioned.

In this episode Kristi joins me again as we break down the Record Store Day list for 2026 and dig into what customers are asking for, how we feel about the list, personally, and what we'd like to take home for ourselves.

In this episode Mark and Jason discuss albums they own but never play - yet don't plan on parting with anytime soon. Why purchase an album you'll never spin? And why continue to keep albums you don't enjoy in the collection?

In this episode Mark and Kristi roll out some alternatives to music's sacred cows, offering "if you like this, maybe try this" suggestions for such classics as Paranoid, Dark Side of the Moon, Rumours and more.

In this episode Mark and Jason talk about talk. Specifically, skits as a component of albums. From their origins to their prevalence in hip hop and how they're changing as music - and how we consume it - evolves.

In the episode Mark and Kristi cover their favorite soundtracks. From synth-y scores to killer compilations, they cover all the sounds that make their favorite movies better.

Mark and Kristi are discussing physical vinyl again. This time it's all about packaging and presentation. What boxes, jackets, colors and more make that vinyl experience all the more special? You got to visualize this one... but we also have some pictures here if you don't mind spoilers (or save that click for after).

Kristi's back again and she and Mark are talking record labels; specifically, some they love - labels that helped to form their taste in music and continue to drive exploration as a reliable source of new sounds.
