This is the first episode of the podcast! This was originally made on Friday, December 6, 2013. I did the initial 9 episodes in one batch over a few months (the 10th was done about a year later, I think), then I took a break until December of 2017. These haven't been available for a while. I wanted to get the original 10 added to the collection so you could see how the show "evolved". Jeff Grant's...

My friend Brian Carter (from episodes 26 & 29) called me the other night to talk about, you know, whatever, which is normal for us, and we decided we should record it for the podcast. This was an unplanned, very random conversation about... gosh, it's hard to remember (making up a standup routine, Toy Story 2, Lonesome Dove & bugs were brought up). We had a good time though. Hope you do too. (Warn...

I genuinely don’t know what my life would look like if Josh Irwin wasn’t in it. I think everybody has people like that and he’s one for me. We met in 1999 at a bible study, even though we’d been sitting next to each other in a community college classroom for a few months. We bonded over being new songwriters and a shared restlessness with life in Fort Worth, Texas, where we lived. One night, which...

Welp, the podcast is back. That was quick! A week or so ago my old friend and roommate Jeremy Dane messaged me on facebook to see about meeting up to catch up (we have NOT kept in very good contact over the years, sadly). A plan was set. Then, 2 hours before we were gonna hang out I texted him to see if he'd be up for recording our conversation for a podcast. He was down. This episode is that talk...

This is a quick episode to let everybody know I'm going to pause the podcast for a little while (starting December 27th). Mainly, I'm not doing enough episodes to justify the hosting expense. I'm hoping to turn the podcast back on sometime later, when I'm wanting to do it more. I host these episodes on SoundCloud but my year subscription is almost over. Luckily they won't delete, they'll just be h...

With great podcasting comes great, um, episode descriptions... Those Tastemaker guys that everybody can't get enough of reunited for more unadulterated laughter and, you know, like recommending stuff to each other again. Hear James talk about his recent European Disney cruise, wonder at the majesty of our recent TV viewing experiences and bask in the cavernous lore of Spider-Cop. It's an ugly job...

The Tastemakers (James Baker, Ronald Allison, Cole Watkins & Jeff) regrouped for another recommend-a-thon a full 3 HOURS in the making (this is how you sell internetware [NOTE: Jeff found out “internetware” is a real word while writing this podcast episode description and apologizes if he used the term incorrectly] ). Follow along and find out what nerds like this month. - Intro (00:00) - Heathcli...

Our old friend Brian Carter from a few episodes ago called back into the podcast this week for a late night conversation about the music we listened to as kids and teenagers and how it shaped us. Often during our normal phone calls we’ll drift into this topic and it seemed like it’d be a fun thing to record. We wanted to get into that age when you stop listening to the music your parents like and...

The Tastemakers (Cole Watkins, Ronald Allison, James Baker & myself) reconvened for another round of recommending & general pod(dy) shooting. Think of this as Show & Tell minus the show part. We cover movies, TV shows, video games, bands, comic books, etc. This is the 2nd time we've done this so if you'd like to hear the first one simply scroll backwards in your feed. The recommendations come quic...

My brother-in-law Clay Garmon is on the podcast today. We talked about his experiences as a head football coach at Eden High School in central Texas. They play 6-Man football there so we discussed how that works as well as Clay's rigorous schedule during football season, life in small town Texas, his new diet and a bunch of other topics. Clay is a very busy guy so I was glad we were able to find t...

My good friend Brian Carter (@briangoeswild on Instagram)phoned into the podcast last night for a surprise conversation about hunting and fishing on public land, living in Nashville, the differences between a chef and a cook, artistic integrity, jumping out of airplanes and much more. This is a long, rambling conversation so if you're bored by one topic you may be fascinated by the next (I don't k...

Do you ever sit and think, "Hmm. I wonder what Jeff watches on TV"? Well, congratulations, today's episode is for you. I went through all the shows I'm currently watching. That's pretty much all this is. No guest. No rules. Just straight up telling the people what's up. CORRECTION: I said a few times that the great Netflix food show Ugly Delicious was made by and stars David Chen but it's actually...

The Evolving Podcast's Nintendo correspondent Richard Ohlsen returns to the show this week to help celebrate the 1 year anniversary of the release of The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild. Rich and Jeff are BIG fanmen (mature fanboys) of this game and its franchise and jumped at the chance to talk through their journeys with this modern masterpiece. Artwork by Nintendo. Thanks for listening! Jef...

I got to talk to one of my favorite people this week: my nearly 9 year-old niece Kenzie. I had to be creative recording-wise because—and I don't know if you've noticed this—kids don't like to sit still! We ended up sitting in the cab of a pickup with the recorder on the seat, so you'll hear a lot of scooting around noise. Still, this was a very fun interview and I'm hoping to do more with this coo...

Please enjoy the highly PC 2nd half of my conversation with Cody Spencer on movies released in 2017. After discussing the 9 films nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars in Part 1 we transitioned into the movies we personally enjoyed last year (that weren't already mentioned). Here are the times if you'd like to skip around: 00:00 - Intro 2:13 - The Disaster Artist 14:50 - Baby Driver 17:55 - The...

I got together with my "friend" Cody Spencer to discuss our thoughts on the 9 movies nominated for Best Picture at the Oscars this year. The plan was to talk about those and then move onto our personal favorites of 2017. I thought it'd be around an hour but NO, it went for 3 HOURS. So this is the first part, which covers the Best Picture nominees (Part 2 will come later this week). Here is a list...

I got together with my friends Cole Watkins, Ron Allison and James Baker so we could recommend stuff to each other. We each came with at least 3 things (though Ron didn't totally understand the prompt...). We went in a circle and talked about each thing, like you do. Here are the topics and times on the off chance some of this isn't fascinating to you: - Intro (00:00) - Introductions (2:30) - A Fu...
