Congrats to Foxing on a great run. A transcendental live experience. Five great records. We decided to cover all of them on the show to end the year. The first three are all live now. Please look at Charlie’s great parody art feat. Our pets (RIP Kodi).

This week! A good album discussion because we picked one of the most acclaimed albums ever: Burial - Untrue. It's the first installment in this year's spooky szn. Also another lengthy ode to Jeff Rosenstock as we all saw the big show (and I met him!). Plus I went to 4 shows in 4 days in 3 states.

Lotta talk about the Foxing s/t and (the actual best record) Nearer My God and The Albatross of course but I just wanna say I always thought Draw Down the Moon was and still is wildly underrated. Not as well produced as a/t maybe but there are some serious bangers on that one.

THIS WEEK we had a very special guest, THE Liquid Mike, Mike Maple on the show. We talk about their new record Hell Is an Airport. We also talk about another record because that’s what we do on the show. Both rock extremely hard. We also talk sports, serial killers, and the mail.

August on the show was PROGust. I had fun making my friends listen to Yes and Magma. Then we covered some modern prog-influenced albums, in part with the help of @rhiannon-comma.bsky.social and they actually liked those ones! These were all really fun episodes. Check em out!
