Avast! Ye Scoundrel015 - People Aren't Responsible Enough For The Power Of Bubblegum (with Andrew Boydston, Mason Wilkes, and Trevor Dustin)This episode was madness to record. The boys from last year's 'Cure For Comedy' tour, Mason Wilkes, Andrew Boydston, and Trevor Dustin come by and we try to figure out how to record 5 people with 4 microphones!

This week L.A. based, New Jersey transplant, comedian (NOT comedienne) Kelly McInerney swings by the show for a conversation about performing in foreign countries, Hanson being the greatest band of all time, celebrity death, differentiating between jam bands, making your family think you're successful, and who has definitely died at SLO county landmarks. Let's throw some movie reviews in there for good measure. We're a little rusty, but we keep it lit af fam, fleek covfefe. Mmm-Hop! Billies! Keepin' it krispie! A cool Au...

Avast! Ye Scoundrel008 - If It Ain't Baroque, Don't Fix It (with Taylor Belmore)Topics on topics on topics! Musician Taylor Belmore a.k.a. Arthur Watership stops by for a lovely chat. This episode is completely off the rails as we talk about how Taylor used to be a robot, cool instruments, and giving credit to Nazis even though we hate them. Taylor also plays her brand new song for us! Rick was on a lot of cold medicine during this recording, so excuse the coughs he couldn't edit out. All in all, a fun time. Robots vs. numbers!
