Wasting Away on the North Coast

Music EN ↓ 180 episodes

We are a group of guys podcasting about the music of singer/songwriter Jimmy Buffett -- as viewed from the Great Lakes State. But since there is beer involved, who knows what we will end up talking about. Now that we've recorded more than a hundred episodes, we've decided to split the feed up. The latest shows will continue here. If you want the first hundred, look for the Wasting Away on the North Coast (Archives) feed.
