thinking that "house party" and "why don't we just dance" get partway there on the "we've got everything we need for a good time already" front but are maybe more ... indoorsy? is this getting close at all?

mix of p4k, stereogum, aquarium drunkard, fader and nyt popcast is usually enough for me to have a steady flow of new stuff. stereogum's album of the week column always has a helpful list of new releases. I also keep a running playlist of new songs I like, which helps keep tabs on what's coming out

I like how much of this person's personal history you can guess just from the bio (grew up in nashville suburbs, sports-disinterested family, started watching sports in ~2004, went to michigan, moved back to nashville in the last 3-5 years, works in tech or private equity or something)
