Ep. 64: B Sides Win Vol. 1, 1992-1997
We continue to fill gaps in our coverage of the Sloan discography, delving this time into the first of three official B Sides releases on physical media and Volume 1, 1992-1997. However, we're not just content to stop at the tracks available on the murderecords release, but delve into the "outtakes of the outtakes" from this point in the GBOAT's history. Perhaps there are some even cuts here that you've never heard before?

Ep. 63: Hit & Run
We address a rather conspicuous gap in our coverage of the Sloan discography, tackling all 13 minutes of 2009's punchy Hit & Run EP (plus bonus track). As Sloan's first true (at least at the time) digital-only release, Hit & Run not only signalled a shift in the band's commercialization approach, but also served as the glue between mid-era and contemporary sounds.

Ep. 62: Based on the Best Seller (P)review
It's finally (almost) here! Sloan's 14th studio album, Based on the Based Seller, is a 12-track romp through both modern stylings and blasts from the past. On this latest episode of Sloancast, we give you an exclusive look into the tracklist and run down each song. Look forward to a true Sloan fan's Sloan album, set for official release on September 26th!

Ep. 60: Alan Wong and 90s Web Fandom
A/S/L? On this episode, we fall deep into the phenomenon that was 90s web superfandom with the one and only Alan Wong, alias SquirrelAl—webmaster of the legendary Sloan Hut. We wax nostalgic about Sloan Chat meetups, Pictures of the Week and forum escapades, as well as about friendships forged on the information superhighway that stand the test of time. To all Gen Zs and Alphas out there: you kinda had to be there.

Ep. 59: Bass Challenge
We are back — and once again joined by Trenton, NJ based musician and Sloan superfan Aaron Pinto. In this sequel to last year’s Drum Challenge, Rob and Aaron attempt to correctly guess the Sloan song based on its isolated bass track. How many of the 20 songs up for speculation did you get right?

Ep. 58: Brian Walsby
We dig into the Sloancast vault and uncover an entertaining conversation with artist and musician Brian Walsby about his newfound love for the GBOAT and his involvement as honorary merch-artist-in-residence. Join us down a rabbit hole of '80s punk bands, album cover cartoons, and just plain ol' good music.
