Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Reality Check E157
We argue over the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 2026 inductees and the bigger issue of whether the Hall still means “rock” or has quietly become a general Music Hall of Fame. Along the way we call out who we think got in for the right reasons, who feels like a stretch, and which overlooked bands deserve a serious second look. • reactions to the 2026 performer inductees list and what it signals about the Hall’s identity • memories from visiting the Hall and why artifacts make the hist...

U2 Achtung Baby, Soft Cell "Tainted Love," and The Beatles Anthology 3 E156
We celebrate three years of making the show by chasing the stories that live inside songs, from U2’s reinvention on Achtung Baby to the radio moments that made 1991 and 1992 feel electric. We trade chart facts, tour memories, and weird-but-true backstories that make you hear familiar tracks in a new way. • marking the three-year milestone and why music talk never runs out • U2’s shift in sound on Achtung Baby and what “Zoo Station,” “Mysterious Ways,” and “One” reveal • why “One” helps hol...

Desert Trip, Queen/David Bowie "Under Pressure", and Billy Joel "A Matter of Trust" E155
Desert Trip still sounds like a rumor you’d hear from a friend who swears they were there: Bob Dylan opening for the Rolling Stones, Paul McCartney sharing a weekend with Neil Young, and The Who somehow slotted before Roger Waters running through Pink Floyd giants. We break down what made the 2016 Indio run such a defining classic rock live music moment, from the jaw-dropping economics and VIP culture to the real fan dilemma of “do I spend the money now or regret it forever?” We also get into...

A Tribute to Lois (Dennis and Lois), Sting-Rod Stewart-Tom Petty Live Fall 1991, and The Damned"New Rose" E154
Two people. One shared obsession. More than 10,000 live shows. We’re remembering Lois Kahlhert after her passing on October 8, 2026. The story of Dennis and Lois, the kind of music fans most scenes only dream of having, the ones who never stop showing up, even when life gets hard. Their names might sound ordinary, but their footprint stretches from CBGB in New York to the Madchester orbit, touching everyone from the Ramones to the Happy Mondays. We talk about why their legacy goes beyond bei...

More Than a Feeling: Boston Debut Turns 50, and Wearing Band T-Shirts E153
There’s a moment before every concert where you look at your closet and ask a ridiculous question that somehow feels important: do I wear the band’s shirt to their own show, or is that “trying too hard”? We jump straight into the unspoken world of concert etiquette, from band merch “rules” to the myth that it’s bad karma to listen to the artist on the day of the gig. We tell the truth about why we wear what we wear, how a rare tour tee becomes a conversation starter, and why the spirit of roc...

That Thing You Do, and The Who "Who's Next" E152
One tiny musical decision can change everything, and That Thing You Do is basically a love letter to that truth. We’re talking about Tom Hanks’ 1960s band movie, why it still feels sharp decades later, and how a single tempo jump turns a forgettable ballad into a song that makes a whole room move. We also dig into the movie’s best running joke, the Wonders name, and the details that make the band feel real instead of “movie real.” We give credit where it’s due and 55 years later The Who "Who...

Run-DMC & Aerosmith "Walk This Way" and Shaky Knees Festival 2026 E151
We chase the weird and wonderful corners of music history, from a star-packed tennis fundraiser that somehow happens without the Eagles to a rap-rock collaboration that permanently shifts what radio can be. We also swap boots-on-the-ground stories from Shaky Knees in Atlanta, including a perfect Strokes set, a storm evacuation, and Wu-Tang turning a festival night into a celebration. • the Eagles Rock and Roll Tennis Festival as a charity event with a surreal guest list • the Eagl...

Nirvana "Nevermind" Plus Drivin N Cryin, Lenny Kaye, The Bogmen, and APB Live E150
One song can act like a wrecking ball, not because it’s louder than everything else, but because it makes the old rules feel instantly outdated. We go back to Nirvana’s “Smells Like Teen Spirit” and talk through why its 1991 rise didn’t just create a hit, it helped slam the door on the hair metal era and kick open the 1990s grunge and alternative rock mainstream. We dig into the details that built the myth: the true story behind the title (yes, Teen Spirit deodorant), the way Kurt Cobain’s l...
