Description

🔥 They tried to shut us down, but we’re back with a vengeance! 🔥

Yep, Spotify pulled a fast one and terminated The DOD45 Show podcast account (seriously, Spotify…🙄), but you can’t keep a good show down! We're re-uploading ALL our past episodes—2 (or more) a day—until they're back where they belong! Buckle up and enjoy the ride! 🎢

This one’s a banger from Series 6—you know, the season where we flipped the script with new graphics, format switch-ups, and the debut of our cheeky segment, “The Dish: Firsts, Worsts, and Favorites”. 🍽️

🎧 What’s Poppin’ in Episode 69?

👉 DJ Zole – The man, the myth, the legend. He’s been killing it on the turntables since he was 12 (or maybe even younger). West Coast repper, Strange Famous family member, and possibly the only DJ with a beard fuller than his record collection.

👉 Oh, and did we mention Star Wars fanboy? Tai drew him as a weasel holding Boba Fett’s helmet in Hamlet’s “to be or not to be” pose. Why a weasel? There’s a story behind that, and this is the ONLY place you’ll hear it. 🦫💀 (Wait, are weasels rodents? Either way, it's epic.)

👉 We went DEEP into his DJ career—the whys, the hows, and the haircare routine (OK, maybe not the last one). Zole also got real about his struggle with alcohol and how he fought his way back. It’s a story of resilience and beats. 💪🎶

👉 Speaking of beats, Zole’s been diving into the world of House Music with his latest album House Flippers. (Spoiler: It’s 🔥).

😂 Laughs, Legends, and... Kevins?!

🤪 We went off on a “Kevin” tangent (don’t ask how we got there) featuring:

• Kevin Garnett (Tall)
• Kevin Bacon (Footloose)
• Kevin Hart (Short but hilarious)
• Kevin Durant (Shoots hoops)

🔥 Oh, and Sage Francis made a guest appearance for the “Sage’s Social Media Lurk,” bringing up a wild Zima story inspired by one of Zole’s Instagram posts from 576 weeks ago. 🍹 What even is Zima? If you know, you’re officially old.

🤔 Sophie's Choice Madness

Tai put Zole through the ringer with some twisted “Sophie's Choice” questions, including:

• The Lost Boys vs. The Last Boy Scout (Vampires or Bruce Willis?)
• Dee Snider vs. D'Angelo (Rock or R&B?)
• Jay Leno vs. Jay-Z (One’s got cars, the other’s got bars)

Would YOU be able to choose? 😂

🎬 Movie & Song Recommendations:

• Movie: The Menu 🍴 – A darkly comedic thriller that skewers the pretensions of the culinary world. Twists, turns, and tasty chaos!
• Song: I’ve Got a Thing by Funkadelic 🎶 – Groove out to this timeless classic that’ll have you vibing.
