Don Williams was one of the biggest country stars of the 80s. Yet, we don't talk enough about Don. Glad that Thomas Csorba picked the 1977 record "Country Boy" from Don though, if you ask Wayne, Thomas should have picked "I Believe In You" from 1980.

Plenty of other discussion including the Opry, Mickey Gilley, Eddie Rabbitt, "to G or not to add a G," the legacy of Don with Louisiana Football (on a Saturday Night), and much more. If you like old school country, this is your episode!

I had a chance to interview Don Barnes, the longtime singer and guitarist for 38 Special. Besides chatting about several topics, we focused a lot of the episode on the making and inspirations behind the album "Wild Eyed Southern Boys." 

Plenty of other discussion about how the band decided who sang on which songs, why Donnie is retired from touring, working with Jim Peterik of Survivor, the inspiration behind "Back Alley Sally," getting hits on the rock stations, the band's latest album "Milestone," how Don's solo album finally saw the light of day, and Don confirms that the band does indeed play live "Second Chance."

Patreon Revisitor Scotty Kummer of the I’ve Got That On Vinyl Podcast & The Ten Junk Miles Podcast joins us to discuss "Parallel Lines" from Blondie.  We have a longstanding argument about "Parallel Lines." I've said it's a good album...but not essential.

I might have changed my stance had Wayne not been such a poo poo head about it. And, I really wanted to double down.

Just don't tell Wayne that I think it's an essential record now, OK? Thanks.

Gretchen Lemon of Seattle based band Jaws of Brooklyn joins us to discuss "Transatlanticism" from Death Cab for Cutie. And, because we're talking about Death Cab, I had to invite little brother Dave Montgomery to join us since he was a big reason why I became a Death Cab for Cutie fan.

Plenty of other discussion including Jaws of Brooklyn's new album "Unstoppable," traveling from Eastern Washington to Seattle, the creative peak of Ben Gibbard (The Postal Service came from this time period as well!!!), Chris Walla's influence, rethinking a score (and calling an audible on tape), and the killer rhythm section of Nick Harmer and Jason McGerr.

Bjorn Ytlling...yeah he's the "Bjorn" of the group Peter, Bjorn and John...visits with us to discuss " Illegal Hit (Out of Bounds)," his first jazz album in like two decades under the moniker of "Yttling Jazz." 

Since Bjorn is in full jazz mode, he wanted to discuss "Money Jungle" that is credited to Duke Ellington but also includes jazz legends Max Roach and Charlie Mingus. Plenty of other discussion including The Radioheads, tugboats, Peter Hook, illegal hockey hits, taxi drivers inspiring a title to a song, and did you know that "Young Folks" was originally a jazz song?

We don't discuss jazz all that often on this podcast so this was a nice detour. Even if you're not a fan of jazz music, hopefully there's something here for you to explore. Enjoy!

Our buddy Michael Citro, host of the "Michael's Record Collection" podcast, returns to talk about Rush again. Remember him from our "Signals" episode?

Plenty of other discussion including the perils of recording (and editing), listening to all the Rush albums in order, do we celebrate deaths, Passage to Pueblo, cameltoe, "maybe you should let me write the songs from now on," Rush did a ballad (and it didn't generate all 1's), and pregaming for a different Canadian band in Triumph.

"100 Years" from Five for Fighting is one of those songs that I listen to when I need a kick in the ass. What a treat is was to have John Ondrasik on the show. Plenty of other discussion including Ukraine, getting ready to tour with Edwin McCain, hockey, life expectancy, "Superman" taking on different meanings as we get older, Stevie's amazing 4 album run, and "wait...that wasn't a single?"

No Wayne on this one.  Too many alphas in the room, perhaps?  We discuss Uncle Tupelo's Alt Country classic "Anodyne" with Patreon Revisitor Seth Gill, Repeat Revisitor Jason Earle (of the Marinade Podcast) and musician Matt Woods. You know…the same guys from the Lucero episode from a while back.  Lines have been drawn…Ben is definitely Pro Jeff Tweedy and Seth is definitely pro Jay Farrar. The other guys?  You’ll have to listen to find out.
