Episode 191 - Put That In Your Pipe and Suck On It

This episode goes a lot of sleep-deprived directions in under an hour. That's fun, right? I definitely talk about the passing of Teri Garr, then music from Matthew Sweet (and his current medical issues), Justin Rutledge, Devin Townsend, Japandroids, and The Pixies. I round it out by talking about the Rocky Horror Show video game and Lost in America. It's kinda nuts, but I think you'll enjoy it!

Photos:

Here's the cover photo for your weird collection of these photos. I know you have it. You know you have it. We've never talked about it. Why won't you talk about it?

Here are a few of the Matthew Sweet CDs I mentioned. Girlfriend is the go-to for most people, but the covers albums with Susanna Hoffs are stellar, too. (As are a bunch of his other albums.)

This album is basically closure for my segment on the Tragically Hip from the other week.

Devin Townsend's "Powernerd" is not near as goofy as the title may suggest. It's actually a great prog-metal album, as you might come to expect from Heavy Devy, if you start digging into his stuff!

Meet the new Japandroids album. Looks a lot like the previous Japandroids albums. Sounds like them too. And that's meant as a compliment.

It's so nice to have another new Pixies album. I'm glad they're still doing things. It's neat.

Deepening my Albert Brooks kick with a sleeper of a great movie. It's a lot of fun, and given it's from 1985, it hasn't aged too terribly. Yay!

Yeah. Okay. I took a photo of my Switch with my phone, rather than screenshotting it. So what?

I would be remiss if I did not include something to represent Teri Garr. Young Frankenstein is probably most people's go-to movie with her in it, but if you listen to the show, you'll get a big ass list of other options! What a career!
