Buckethead is a virtuoso, no doubt, and an artist that is not content to color within the lines. He is constantly pushing on boundaries and re-inventing himself. So, we decided to get a passionate Bucketbot on the podcast to share his enthusiasm and knowledge about the only guitarist who was born in a c...2024-10-251h 56

Singled Out : The intersection between ADHD, Christianity, and Singlenessep.8 Should you mentor a child? with Jason Walton of ElevateShould You mentor a child? Maybe this is something you never thought about.
In today’s episode we have the pleasure of speaking with Jason Walton, the leader of the Mentorship program for the Coweta school system at Foundation Church.
So, why mentor a child? We live in a very egocentric world today. Most of us walk around thinking about ourselves. How can we succeed? How can we be comfortable? And how can we do better? Though there is nothing wrong with us, God calls us in Hebrews 13:16 to share what we have with others. Wh...2023-09-2126 min
I Hate MusicEpisode 65 - Climate Change, Concert Etiquette, and ”It Was a Different Time.”You can't deny this episode. From protest music of the '60's, to punk, thrash metal, and grindcore, musicians and artists have been warning us about climate change for decades, but why aren't we listening? We have no idea but we sure love the music. We discuss politics in music and environmentally aware bands like Nuclear Assault, and D.R.I, as well as discuss climate changes within music such as the "Weirding of Norway" or when metal bands turned to alternative music in the '90's for inspiration.

After a much needed vacation, we finally got sick of putting our feet up and sipping on cocktails and decided we missed this too much to retire permanently. During our vacation we had a lot of time to reflect, and ponder our history and what we are doing. We realized we needed something different, something to revitalize our spirits and inspire us to move further into uncharted waters. So, we are back with a new format, new goals, new ideas - and a co-host!

Jason put together a varied track list of some of General Patton’s deep cuts from across his flagship bands, collaborative efforts, and one-offs. We talk about Patton’s ability to subvert the frontman role, Mr. Bungle and Faith No More fandom in the 90s, the ever expanding musical universe that he inhabits, and how Patton’s fearless approach to music inspires Jason’...2023-03-102h 11

I Hate MusicEpisode 58 - “Listener Requests Part III” with guest Ione WaltonI always assumed that episodes with my daughters would not be as engaging, or appreciated, as episodes with notable musicians, but listener feedback has been overwhelmingly positive for these breaks in the normal programming. So, we are back with “Listener Requests Part III” with Ione Walton. These installments tend to blend podcasting with sound collage at times, and this is no different. Ione and I go through some listener recommendations, and we each play a couple of choice cuts as well.

I typically get them via Email, but this morning Ione and I decided to get on FaceBook and Instagram and ask listeners to send in their recommendations as we record. We received roughly 50 requests from all over the world, and I can say without hyperbole that this group of songs are by far the worst, most annoying, and painfully ignorant bunch of songs ever assembled.

I Hate MusicEpisode 47 - "Listener Requests" with guest Ione WaltonI stumbled across this lost recording the other day. Ione and I recorded this right before the pandemic hit. We were taking listener requests that had been Emailed in, but the pandemic and subsequent quarantine had distracted me, and the episode had become buried by time and dust, and forgotten... until now.
Ione plays some music she likes, I play a little that I like, and we both critique and comment on the listener suggestions. Unfortunately, since this episode was lost for so long, the information is quite out of date, but music is timeless, right?

I was about to embark on a short tour with one of Toby Driver's various projects, (Piggy Black Cross), and Toby told me Thief from Los Angeles would be joining. That first night of tour Dylan and Thief stunned me with the craft of their songs, the passion in their performance, and I was instantly impressed with their unique and dynamic shows each night.

Most notably, there are no listener submissions on this episode. This episode is comprised of a handful of notable musicians, and people in the music industry sharing their quarantine picks with us.

With this in mind, I asked listeners to send me their "Quarantine Songs." Songs that they find themselves turning to while stuck at home.

But these are strange times afoot, so here you are, I figure even the slightest amusement is welcome in isolation.
In this episode Ione and I defend pop sensation Billie Eilish, as well as share music, get bored and get bullied.

He was my partner in crime on Nothing's "The Grey Subaudible" album, he's the main writer in Climb to Zalem and has been involved in a number of bands including Killer Whale, Self Spiller and Snares of Sixes.

From their early days on Euronymous' Deathlike Silence Productions to their most recent album "Heir to Despair," Sigh has found comfort in the dark seeping underbelly of music.
I asked Mirai to provide some music to share with my cohort Don Anderson. Music that has intrigued him, confused him, provoked him or perhaps inspired him over the years. He gave me a bounty of music from Jazz, to Metal, to Traditional Asian and beyond.

As always, when the Gizz releases a new record, we are here with bated breath, ready to digest and dissect, to criticize and celebrate.
On this album King Gizzard decide to tread through waters that are dear to me heart, they decide to dip their quill into the genre of metal. I think it is fair to say that both CC-P and JWW were fairly skeptical of this move but decided to l...2019-09-241h 01

We were a bit rushed though as we decided to record right before going to perform as main support for Melvins. Our energy was up, attitudes were good, and beer and music was flowing.
We settled into some nice conversations about IBUs, ABV, Video Games, Roombas and thankfully AJ rarely mentioned Ska. Join Us!

We are calling this series "In Defense of...", and this is the first installment.
