Well, well, well! We're crossing the podcast streams here and talking about an album that Corey has covered extensively on one of his other podcasts, And The Podcast Will Rock! Kev started listening to Van Halen when Sammy took over and has a pseudo-legal history with Dave! We're also joined, for the first time, by our KoFi supporter, Michael Pastore, who gave us this album to talk about. But will Corey put aside his flagrant bias for Pasadena's party boys? Will Kev hold a grudge against the man he argued against in Rock Court, and what in gods' names is a rhythm pig?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and leave this house of pain!

We're already at the half way stage in this season's catalogue? How can that be? "When are you pair of idiots going to do a full catalogue again" we hear you cry? To that we say "fuck off and mind your own business!" We talk about movies, Dan Akroyd makes an appearance, and Kev tries to reign Corey back in during this season's game. But will he bamboozle the Weyburn Oracle, will Plastic Letters beat the debut's score, and what exactly did Corey find under the ice up in Northern Saskatchewan....?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and have the nerve to say no!

Seven songs? SEVEN SONGS???? What kind of madness is this? Also, it's seven songs on a Blondie, only one of which is written by Debbie Harry! What the hell are these guys (and gal) tryna' pull here? There are a lot of ideas being thrown at us here! We're venturing to the Bermuda triangle, we're speaking in French, and we're worried about snipers. But will Kev and Corey get to the bottom of what the heck "I'm on E" means? Will the supernatural horseshit in the lyrics of Gary Valentine's final contribution to the band irritate Kev, and will Corey remember his daring squirrel rescue?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and don't regret your loan!

Kev and Corey discover their favourite song on the album is the same track, there's no Def Leppard news, which makes Kev very happy, and Corey pontificates on the value of percussive restraint. But, will our dynamic duo love a song about alient ants (free range, not farmed), will Corey take advantage of Kev's appalling performance in the season's game last week, and who the fuck is Ronnie Toast and what does he have to do with Blondie?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and rip her to shreds!

Six songs to kick off Side A from Blondie's debut. We discover that X Offender isn't about Trump and Epstein, but rather is a cautionary tale about falling in love (or lust) with your local copper! There's drum fills aplenty, a few mix issues, and we talk a fair bit about Debbie Harry's voice. But, will new wave surf rock tickle Corey's pickle? Will Kev had any damn clue what West Side Story is? And what in god's name does anti-dandruff shampoo have to do with this week's episode?

Iggy Pop recalls inviting Blondie to tour with him at a time when David Bowie was playing keyboards in his backing band. "Debbie was an American ponytail girl as seen through the lens of Roger Vadim; Barbarella on speed, or something like that."

With Barbella on speed and Chris Stein right behind her, Blondie had all the ingredients to take on the world. But would internal friction pull the band apart? Would anyone take a blonde bombshell seriously as a frontwoman in a rock n roll band, and would Mike Chapman be able to polish these rough diamonds enough to see them dazzle the world?

By the mid-1980s, apartheid-era South Africa was subject to a global cultural boycott, strongly advocated by the African National Congress (ANC) and supported by the United Nations. Musicians were explicitly asked not to perform, record, or collaborate in South Africa, regardless of intent. In 1984–85, Paul Simon traveled to South Africa to record with Black South African musicians, including members of Ladysmith Black Mambazo. He did not seek ANC approval beforehand and broke the cultural boycott in the process. But was it worth it? Did Simon accomplish anything creatively or culturally worth his bold contravention of the global attitude toward the South African regime?

We're joined by Crowes superfan and all round wonderful fella Dave Lasseter to pull apart Amorica and Tall and to chat about how good the Crowes were live! We also take a run at resequencing the album taking into account every track we have to choose from. Kev and Corey weren't hot on Cursed Diamond, so will Dave hang up the call? Will we get into any trouble for our edits, and will Corey finally open this damned treacle mine!
