Sarah here, with a grocery store song update! I can't believe I'm hearing Personal Jesus in the grocery store right now!

I'm going to apologize in advance for our new episode. I'm busy editing it and I just heard myself say the word "awesome-sauce." I've never said that before in my entire life and I have no idea where it came from when we were recording. Sorry for any cringing and/or trauma it might cause....

Happy Birthday to everyone's favorite host!! Join me in wishing Sarah a wonderful day!!

We were happy to be invited back on the @slydogmusicast.bsky.social to talk about our favorite albums of 2025! Time spent with Sly Dog is always fun, and it's Brian's opportunity to come off like the old man he is, yelling at clouds and baffled by anything new! www.podbean.com/ew/pb-r6v4v-...

Our first episode of 2026 is finally here! Take a trip with Brian and Sarah back to November 2009 as they revisit Depeche Mode's "Tour of the Universe" home video concert release. Do they get their wish of a better-filmed video than "Touring the Angel?" permanentrecordpodcast.com/depeche-mode...
