Episode 21: U2 vs. R.E.M. featuring Brent Kick
July 10, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 90.5 MBGreat great great episode with Brent Kick, who is like the oracle of music knowledge. We'll be back soon enough with more content but I'm proud of this one.
Episode 20: Our Top Ten Most Influential Albums
June 28, 2018 00:00 - 57 minutes - 52.8 MBWe took a brief break from the format to elevate another FB meme for no reason other than our own amusement. This was recorded a bit over a week ago.
Episode 19: Big Star versus The Replacements with Jim Gross
June 18, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 95.6 MBWe were joined by Jim Gross to talk baseball as well as two bands who remain extremely underappreciated despite their later infamy as bands that every good band appreciates.

Episode 17: The Boognish
May 11, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 69.8 MBThis episode is deeply weird and it's great. It's just Andy and Andy talking exclusively about Ween. By Ween.
Episode 16: Female Pop Appreciation with Ryan Morgan pt.2
May 08, 2018 00:00 - 2 hours - 86 MBPart two of our conversation with Ryan Morgan concerns his opinions on modern female pop stars. His thesis is that not only are we in a golden age of female pop stars who are both artistically interesting and also important culturally and even politically but that we've never actually seen anything like this. We've never had women pop stars, and WOC pop stars at that, in anything like their number or in terms of them making their own choices for themselves. In the course of the conversatio...
Episode 16: Female Pop Appreciation with Ryan Morgan, pt.1
May 06, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 54.3 MBWe're joined this week by Ryan Morgan who was here to discuss why the current generation of female pop singers aren't just great musicians in an unprecedented way, but also that they matter culturally. We don't talk about any of that in part one, in fact we don't talk about music it all for the first forty minutes so if you don't care about baseball or soccer you should skip to that point. After that we talk about Ryan's ongoing series of essays about Hootie and the Blowfish, the Brown And...
Episode 15: Prog Rock Roundabout with Scott Jeffries and Andy Bellemer
April 25, 2018 00:00 - 1 hour - 73.4 MBWe're once again joined by Scott Jeffries as well as first time guest Andy Bellemer as we have a wide ranging discussion about progressive rock. It was long enough to be broken in to two parts but in tribute to prog we left it at the excessive length.

Episode 14.5: The Gene Simmons Vault Experience
April 23, 2018 00:00 - 50 minutes - 34.5 MBIn this special edition of the pod the Samford Andy talks about his experience of having The Vault hand delivered to him by Gene Simmons as well as how much KISS has meant to him. http://www.genesimmonsvault.com/ YouTube links: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2t2uHsHylDc https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Li6xi2NbyY&feature=youtu.be Andy makes Gene laugh: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Li6xi2NbyY&feature=youtu.be&t=9m7s Pictures: http://www.electricminnowmusic.com/upload/GeneVaultPics/
Episode 14: Alice in Chains versus Pearl Jam featuring Matthew Clark and Ryan Brown, Pt. 2
April 22, 2018 05:08 - 52 minutes - 36 MBThis second half covers Alice in Chains. Ryan really did a great job of making the case and also related very personal stories about how Alice in Chains impacted him starting at the age of 14 and continuing up through the present day. He even uses the band and the songs to relate to his children's lives. Telestrion - Blazing in the Sky available now: https://telestrion1.bandcamp.com/album/blazing-in-the-sky
Episode 14: Alice in Chains versus Pearl Jam featuring Matthew Clark and Ryan Brown, Pt. 1
April 21, 2018 06:19 - 1 hour - 51.4 MBWe don't waste much time in this one on the intro before getting right in to it with not one but two guests and both of them were advocating for separate sides of the question. It was such a good conversation that it went over two hours so this is part one and covers just the Pearl Jam portion. Samford's band Telestrion's new is available here: https://telestrion1.bandcamp.com/album/blazing-in-the-sky
Episode 13: Public Enemy versus N.W.A. with Manny Trillo
April 12, 2018 05:52 - 1 hour - 49.5 MBWe start out talking about Manny's thoughts on Manchester United and Liverpool before getting in to how he became an un-ironic and self-aware fan of ICP. All of us come down firmly on the side of Public Enemy throughout before I confess at the end to shooting Phil Collins in the face and I have no regrets.
Episode Twelve: Bad Music Appreciation
April 06, 2018 18:46 - 1 hour - 67.4 MBThe two Andy's talk baseball before turning our attention to some of the worst music in the world. The Gormley: www.youtube.com/watch?v=87nkJquHnAU This is "Baby Lu-Lu": http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-GUwZaMHsZ3A/UHt5P91-5pI/AAAAAAAAFQI/QzMoEHzSAQs/s640/BabyLuLu-album-cover-WTF-bad-album-covers.jpg
Episode Eleven: Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin
March 30, 2018 14:40 - 1 hour - 46.5 MBThis episode goes to eleven. We started out talking about how politics is always against you and then on the back half Andy Samford delivered a very righteous case for why Black Sabbath is actually a great band and I'm inclined to agree. One of our better episodes, I have to say,
Episode Ten: David Bowie versus Bob Dylan
March 16, 2018 03:56 - 1 hour - 44.7 MBThe Andys discuss two of the best singer/songwriters of all time. Bowie/Bing Crosby: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n9kfdEyV3RQ
Episode 9: Prince vs. Michael Jackson
March 06, 2018 10:41 - 1 hour - 45 MBThanks to Boyz II Men we found enough inspiration to overcome our differences and keep the pod going. Andy saw Noel Gallagher in concert this week so we started out talking about that before moving on to a crazy political story. We finished it off by obviously picking Prince over MJ. Duh.
Episode 8: Sex Pistols versus The Clash
February 27, 2018 10:31 - 1 hour - 47.7 MBThe Andy's talk about a couple movies before reaching a point of no return. Possibly the final episode of this young podcast. Links: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=89OP78l9oF0 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hZLhqTzjpUM
Episode Seven: The Flaming Lips vs. Pink Floyd featuring Scott Jeffries, Pt. Two
February 22, 2018 05:42 - 58 minutes - 39.9 MBWe finish the conversation by discussing the career trajectory of one of the best and most important rock bands of all time.
Episode Seven: The Flaming Lips vs. Pink Floyd featuring Scott Jeffries, Pt. One
February 21, 2018 07:58 - 1 hour - 43.3 MBWe sped through the intro here because we knew it was going to be a stem winder. Little did we know that the minimal intro and discussion of the Flaming Lips would take up a full hour and the Floyd conversation was another hour on top of that. This is the first half.

Episode Six: Nirvana and Pixies
February 17, 2018 09:11 - 1 hour - 53.9 MBThe Andy's start out discussing the Quincy Jones GQ interview before quickly discussing their album picks of the week. They then move on to dispensing with Pixies and then use the remaining time to fellate Nirvana and their influence, positive and negative, on pop music before somehow drifting in to radical left politics.

Episode Five - G'N'R and Metallica
February 07, 2018 06:02 - 1 hour - 62.4 MBWe talk about the Superb Owl before moving on to the results of our album exchange. After the break we moved on to talk about the bands and it was a stemwinder that resulted in the first changed vote in the history of the podcast.

Episode Four: Radiohead vs. Spiritualized featuring Scott Jeffries
February 02, 2018 05:12 - 1 hour - 64 MBThe Andys are joined by our friend Scott Jeffries from Portland based bands Stars of Cascadia and Gamma Repeater. We talk a little bit about baseball before getting down to business and there's some absurdity at the end.

Episode Three: Blur vs. Oasis
January 24, 2018 05:07 - 1 hour - 47.4 MBWe talk about politics, a massive Kiss convention, and football, but not movies, before moving on to some music talk. Slayer is retiring, taking shrooms to see Tool is good, and of course the Blur versus Oasis debate are all on the table.

Episode Two: Paul McCartney and John Lennon
January 17, 2018 05:07 - 45 minutes - 41.4 MBIn our second episode we constantly fret about length while managing to talk about football before getting right in to it. This will also be the first episode where the sound quality makes a quantum leap forward.
