The amount of stuff we talk about on this podcast is outrageous frankly.

Let the cream rise to the top! This month we have the awesome Colette Arrand on to discuss about wrestling, movies, and a surprising amount of Smashing Pumpkins talk.

“The Lutherans would’ve been okay with secular music but they drew the line at leopard print” 🤣 For the first time in my life I can draw a connection between going to a Lutheran elementary school and my aversion to animal print. Subliminal messaging in the Apostles’ Creed???

Take a listen! "Crack it open, kids"

WHY DO I HAVE TO WEAR SO MANY THINGS ON MY HEAD. -Amy Grant, Hats

Rage Against the CPAP Machine

Finished Capitalists Must Starve by Park Seolyeon. A fictional story based on the heroic life of a Korean woman named Kang Juryong. In 1930s Japanese-occupied Korea, Kang and her husband join a liberation army. Kang becomes a hero. Years later, she leads a successful women worker’s strike. Liked it.

If Paul Banks checked out after Antics was in the can, Interpol would be legends today.

Saddened to learn of the passing of Marjane Satrapi (1969-2026). Persepolis, a graphic memoir Satrapi wrote & illustrated, is a must-read for anyone looking to learn how Iran came to be the authoritarian theocracy it is today & what life was like there before & after the Shah was forced into exile.

What your fav Radiohead album says about you: Pablo Honey: Everything’s fine. The world is a good place. The Bends: I like alternative rock. Sometimes I even like bands my friends don’t. OK Computer: I think the future may suck, but I’m gonna try to live for the moment. (continued on next post)

I love it when @therachel.bsky.social covers songs from 1991 on #ChartChat because that’s the summer I spent inside watching MTV and VH1, between 6th & 7th grade. So I know all the songs she references. And yay @lasagnahog.bsky.social!!! Delightful!!

I know her!

It’s a good time for the great taste of listening to this ep. Thanks @lasagnahog.bsky.social for sharing your time & talents!

Start the week right by listening to two of the sweetest sweetie pies talking about Amy Grant!

What a fucking nightmare.😂

A true dream come true of an episode! Not only do we get a delightful @julieklausner.bsky.social interview from Andy, but @therachel.bsky.social’s #Chartchat left me craving rolls. Buttered rolls. Warm and crusty. Stomach’s growling.
