10/10 You're Great

FROM THE VAULT: This week, one of the hosts is learning to deal with his adult onset hypochondria (turns out its not a form of OCD, which is wild because it sure feels obsessive and compulsive!) so we are digging into the vault! We fished this episode from the dumpster out back, a test pilot that was NOT FIT TO AIR until we RAN OUT OF OPTIONS IMMEDIATELY. In it, we're a little fun and flirty and d...

In this week's episode we follow up on last week's episode by having the same show name, hosts and general format in what critics are calling "yet another episode." Sorry that description was boring because this album absolutely is not: the stellar (lunar?) album that 100% of the critics got totally wrong half of the time, Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino. Also in this episode: Drake does what...

On a very specialsode, your hosts discuss the Killer's audience-alienating (and therefore intrinsically interesting) sophomore debut, Sam's Town. Join them as they explore if Uncle Johnny is actually a "cool uncle", morosely remember When You/They Were Young, and debate whether or not they should've just done Hot Fuss instead. Also up for discussion: A conspiracy-riddled web of lies is unraveled a...

In this week's episode the boys-- I'm sorry literally every podcast calls its host "the boys" we can't be doing that, give me a second to find a thesaurus. In this week's episode the male children discuss your favorite pop-punk band's favorite pop-punk band, Jawbreaker and their magnum opus, 24 Hour Revenge Therapy. If you've never heard them before, this is a great opportunity to jump in. If you...

In what some are calling the First Good Episode of the Pod, Chris gets outed as a Fact-Checker for People Who Love to Lie, and, oh yeah -- the boys just happen to trundle their way through the definitive indie rock album of 2004(?) - present day. We played Float On recently at a house party and someone pointed at us and said "Right On" in my imagining of how things should've gone. Other and more c...

On this episode of 10/10 You're Great, we have a new sound board which means an uncharted galaxy of bleeps and boops. It also means the boys will need to learn to vamp as the music is loaded. Speaking of vamp (dracula style [TM Brad Stoker]) this week's topic is the spooky Silent Shout, an album that will haunt the lads as they try to spell "aetherial", fail to use Karin's correct pronouns and in...

Dear listener/reader/watcher, for your approval, please consider this episode in which we three boys flail our way through a problematic and powerful breakup album. Marvel as we complete almost all of our sentences. Gasp as we have an occasional coherent thought. Gnash your teeth each time we bring up Georgie Fruit. Also up for discussion in this record-breakingly long ep (our friends keep saying...

On this episode of 10/10 You're Great the boys learn to appreciate the power of meditation, hiking, field recordings, and the amount of damage a severe squirrel infestation can do to Nick Zammuto's home as we explore his (and Paul de Jong [mustard]'s) masterwork the Lemon of Pink. Not to be confused with Lemon of Troy, the final episode of the Simpson's sixth season, though both do have an earthie...

On this week's episode of 10/10 You're Great the boys were so busy smelling the VD in the club tonight they didn't even bother to stop and consider if they should. That's right, its the so-sexed-up-it's-not-sexy-but-then-comes-around-to-being-sexy-again masterwork that was once rated by Q Magazine as the 50th worst album of all time: Midnite Vultures. The people didn't get it but finally, 25 years...

In this inaugural episode of 10/10 You're Great, 2 out of 3 hosts can correctly say the name of the band they're discussing, which you have to imagine is at least a passing ratio. Why can the third one not say it correctly? I don't know, you'd have to ask his friends why they never corrected him. Sinful behavior really, when Anubis does the feather stuff to them it will weigh heavy on their guts o...
