S2. Episode 7. Us and Them
Explicit content warning
01/21/24 • 99 min
Another heroic and historic episode of the podcast that listens so you don't have to...with a magical and golden crossing of the podcast streams complete with Alan "Schatz" Schatzberg from RushRash, and our hosts crashing Schatz' gig before teleporting his azz back into this show. The streaming circle is complete with this wiz-bang mash up unlike any episode of the Regarding...Series before it.
In an incredibly brilliant cunning stunt on the Deep Dive Podcast Network, even if we do say so ourselves, Regarding...Roger and RushRash have crossed streams to create a fluid and flowing smashing of formats and general bustin' shit up episode - look away! SNAP!
Join Wolfie, Chaz, and Schatz in a listen through the epic and jazzy Us and Them from the original, on the bone, peri-peri sauce dipped wing, and wax nostalgic over a plate of boneless wings just what the song meant to them. Then listen as they listen to the train wreck that is the redux version. Mercifully, a little shorter than the original...but that's because there was not much to add to such a brilliant composition and collaboration with Richard Wright. St. Richard, perhaps. F*$k David, thank you very much!
🎸As always, Chaz & Wolfie are on the case digging into the what of this why...wtf?? Always offering their unique, boneless insights, as only they can. And you know, the Regarding...Series of mini-podcasts is not political, not correct, and you're lucky we use spell-check. When facts don't matter and feuds matter less, we go into what we know and what we can google about each song from Dark Side of the Moon, then and redux, one track at a time, in a compare and contrast format. Each show we'll listen to the original, and how he butchered it with his new version. Er...we mean, the new additive interpretation work by Mr. Waters...no bias here.

S2. Episode 6. Money
Roger! Get back, I’m alright Jack, keep your hands off my Dark Side of the Moon! Fakk, Chaz and Wolfie get beat over the head with some heavyweight add-on to the song Money...where the saxophone solo and the guitar solos go...and more than ever we ask...why Roger, why?
Join our cohosts as they dig on listening to the entirely unchanged original epic track, on headphones, with plenty of mints on hand...cool baby, and waxing nostalgic for Gordon Gecco and a message the guys don’t think they missed the first time, and a new message that leaves us wondering, even more, let us say that again, not to be rundant, but to be perfectly clear, we'd still really like to know, “why Roger, why?”
We digress and go on...we discover the origins of the lyrics Roger stole from the London Underground, and listen to him blather on about how he has a demo of the music he wrote for Money, in addition to those lyrics that, you know, he wrote. He makes that clear again, and leaves us a little torn when it comes to the music. If you were at a cocktail party, and you heard the music come on, without the vocal, you might pause, recognize it as Money, and go on with you conversation, enjoying the reminessing sounds in the background, but fakk, he does his best Tom Waites, and...well...it's "why Roger, why?" But...it’s the COVID for episode, and there are plenty of twists and turns to keep you guessing, what the hell is in those mints...
Grab your caviar and kick back for another fat-cat tongue-lashing and stern warning to choose more noble motives to guide your choice of vocation...cause they still ain’t givin’ none away.

Next Episode
S2. Episode 8. Any Colour You Like
In this thought-provoking, WTF episode of Regarding...Roger, hosts Chaz Charles and Greg "Wolfie" Wolfe dive deep into the track Any Colour You Like from both the original and the Redux version of Pink Floyd's iconic "Dark Side of the Moon."
The digressionary duo embarks on a lively and detailed analysis of the new interpretations and additions Roger Waters has made to the classic instrumental piece, making time to analyze the lyrics as well...as they should. They explore Waters' commentary on themes such as nationality, sexuality, and the symbolism behind flags, tying these to the current societal context with references to Ukraine and the rainbow flag, and all that implies. The episode is enriched with high-brow, speculative humor about Waters' intentions, playfully questioning the necessity and execution of this Redux project. In other words - Why Roger, why?
As Chaz and Wolfie trip over themselves navigating this album they maintain a balance of reverence for the original work and a critical eye on the new layers added by Waters. They deserve your patronage and acclaim for having gotten this far in the challenge of interpreting the always cryptic newly added lyrics...this time pondering the potential meanings behind references to modern technology like CAT scans and electron microscopes. The episode not only serves as an entertainingly excruciating exploration of Waters' latest artistic endeavor but also serves as a glaring reminder that still, we ask...Why Roger, why?
The WTF Episode. It was inevitable it would come to this. Chaz and Wolfie have endured quite a lot in the making of this podcast, and at a point, it becomes necessary to...go on a digression. Oh, and that's gonna be late...
