Episode 3: Bass In Your Face with Gabriel Douglas

06/19/13 • 113 min

Justin and Lindsay have Gabe Douglas from The 4onthefloor onto the podcast. Gabe talks about his musical projects and his deep love of books. We specifically focus on A Song of Ice and Fire series and Eating Animals. Stick around until the end of the episode to listen to the band's single "King of the Jungle" off of their new album Spirit of Minneapolis. We had fun with this merry man. Spoilers: A Storm of Swords/Game of Thrones Season 3 (52:25 - 01:06:22).

Episode 2: A JOY/US Affair with Jenny Owen Youngs

Justin and Lindsay have their first guest on to the show: singer and songwriter Jenny Owen Youngs! Jenny talks about what books influenced her growing up and persuades us to read some of her favorites. Listen to her song "Love for Long" off her album An Unwavering Band of Light following the podcast. We think the Wolverine Quotient of this song is through the roof. Very minor spoilers: The Great Gatsby and The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Minisode 1 (Warped Edition): The Swellers

Today's mini episode comes directly from the Vans Warped Tour and features Nick (Guitar/Vox) and Jonathan (Drums) Diener from the band The Swellers! There are so many wordsmiths and book readers on this tour, we felt we should tap into their minds and let you in on what they dig in terms of the written word. And these boys dig some pretty radical words. This veers from our established format a bit as none of us knew what we were going to talk about prior to recording. But the Brothers Diener definitely cover both side of the literary spectrum (if by both sides you, like me, Justin, mean fiction and non-fiction). Oh, and at the end of the episode listen to the song "Hands" from their latest album Running Out Of Places To Go. Enjoy. AUDIO NOTE: Due to heavy traffic coming in and out of the vehicle we recorded in, the levels bounce around a bit.
