PJ Harvey, "Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea"
Can you hear them? The helicopters? Well we’re sorry! We don’t have a professional podcast studio yet.

This time, it’s PJ Harvey and her 2000 album, “Stories from the City, Stories from the Sea.”

A Merry Podmas Gift for You from So So / Cool
It’s the most wonderful time of the year! To get in the spirit, we’re striking the harp, joining the chorus, and donning our gay apparel, but unfortunately our blazing yule was turned off prematurely by a grumpy podcast Grinch. In this very special Holiday episode, we’re getting festive, talking about our favorite seasonal tunes, some of our guilty pleasures, and a few of those songs we may have heard one too many times.

Squirrel Nut Zippers, "Hot"
Hey all you hepcats, this week we’re listening to Squirrel Nut Zippers’ 1996 album, "Hot". Join us as we talk about that unusual period of the 1990s—when a significant chunk of America was enamored with zoot suits and lindy-hop—and how Squirrel Nut Zippers sort of did and sort of did not fit into that cultural moment.

Rage Against the Machine, "Rage Against the Machine"
Mic check, one two, one two. Yeah, we're coming back with another bomb cast this week with Rage Against the Machine's self-titled 1992 classic. This band was a pretty big part of our early formative years, as evidenced by our vivid memories of rocking out with broom handle guitars, air drums, and screaming the lyrics of "Bullet In the Head" maybe a little too loudly—at least for Joe's dad. Join us as we talk about their influence on music and politics, seeing them perform live, and debate whether Tom Morello should've shredded a whole lot more.
