  • Gone Too Soon: Thirty, Nerdy, & Thriving
    2022/01/21
    It's raw, it's real, and maybe even a little pretentious. It's the final episode.

    Thank you for listening.

    Until next time.

  • You Should be Listening to Grayscale
    2021/10/06
    Look. It's been an ugly year and a half. The only positive thing to come out of this time for so many of us has been the music put out by brave creatives, channeling our emotions into song and connecting us in a time when we need connection more than ever. Grayscale is one of those artists. With the release of their latest album, Umbra, they've managed to take pop punk in a whole new direction, avoiding capitalizing off of the rise of a formulaic genre and instead taking it into new territory. Their raw and honest lyrics, often dark, sometimes hopeful, soar over the top of their impressive musicality. If you're not yet listening to Grayscale, you should be. Enjoy.

  • You Should be Listening to The Rocket Summer
    2021/06/14
    Bryce Avary, aka The Rocket Summer, wrote, recorded, and produced his first full length album Calendar Days in 2003, at the age of 20. Since then, he has released six additional full length albums, as well as numerous EPs, B-sides, and singles. For any fan of pop-punk or pop-rock, The Rocket Summer is a must-listen. Avary's music is melodic, powerful, catchy, and full of metaphors about faith, love, and the beauty to be found in life's struggles. Even Harry Styles is a fan of The Rocket Summer, so clearly you should be too! On this episode, I take you album by album, sharing my favorite songs and explaining what they mean and why I think they deserve your attention. Rock on, friends.

  • Gone Too Soon: Wrecked
    2021/05/24
    In Loving Memory of Wrecked (TBS): 2016-2018. This three-season series canceled in its prime details the life and times of a group of complete strangers, stranded on a deserted island after surviving a plane crash. Sound like Lost? That's because it is a directly parody of the hit drama, spoofing all of the bizarre happenings in an absolutely hilarious way. The ensemble cast shines as each new season takes the story in a different direction, leaving viewers wanting more. This underrated comedy saw a dip in ratings due to its release on cable TV, but it was made for streaming. You can watch all the episodes right now on HBO Max, and listen to this episode to learn everything you need to know before binging!
