To celebrate the recent release of the new Space Jam, we're releasing the basketball episode of our multi-part Sportstacular. In this one, Steve and his brother Dave, an enthusiast for the cultural ephemera of sports, cure Joe of his general apathy towards the game with a selection of hits from the likes of John Tesh, Kurtis Blow, Aaron Carter, Alan Parsons, and even Big Shaq himself.

Crazy Frog is still crazy after all these years. Join us as we piece together the history of this annoying mascot for shameless musical capitalism based on an mp3 made by a Swedish teenager in 1997 and prepare ourselves for Crazy Frog's new quarantine album which, by our calculations, is certain to be at least a Pitchfork 6.

Scott Stapp, former singer of Creed and your bubbie's neighbor in Boca Raton, jumped at the opportunity to create a motivational anthem for his hometown's struggling baseball team, the Florida Marlins. What he came up with was an adaptation of one of his solo songs with some randomly selected words about baseball thrown in. Take Me Out to the Ballgame it's not. Grab your peanuts and crackerjacks and join us as we begin the first part of our series about music in sports with a look at Stapp's 2010 power ballad 'Marlins Will Soar', along with a few other selections from baseball's musical history.

In this episode, Eastman Presser joins us to defend the legacy of the brilliant singer, songwriter, and session musician Michael McDonald and his so-called Yacht Rock compatriots in bands like Steely Dan, the Doobie Brothers, and late-stage Yes. Who cares if he wears satin vests in casual situations and sounds like Eddie Vedder's soulful uncle? Apparently he's a great hang. Sail away with us to a world where virtuosity is king, the listening is easy, and musical "guilty pleasures" are just regular pleasures.

Q: What do you get when you cross Sketches of Spain, Ravel's Bolero, Alice in Wonderland, wealthy parents, and way too much acid? A: A whole bunch of hippie nonsense. Join us as we follow the incredibly talented and pissed off Avery Mandeville down the rabbit hole that leads to, well, nothing important.

Emily Montes is five years old. She likes playing Roblox and going outside, and judging by the tone of this 5 minute long 14 track album, she's kind of having a hard time these days.

Is it an existential crisis or a boring song? In this episode, Steve guides Joe on an illuminating journey into the expanding consciousness of dorm-room pop singer/producer turned poet and podcast philosopher Mike Posner through a thorough critical exegesis of his 2015 song 'I Took A Pill in Ibiza' to celebrate the start of his highly publicized walk around the entire United States (no, really). Mike, we hope the walk is going well and we're really sorry we thought your music was bad.

We're back with a trip down memory lane to 2009, a simpler time, when stomps, claps, "whoas", and inauthentic ukuleles dominated the airwaves. Let Joe and Steve be your conductors as we hop aboard the runaway train that is Train's "Hey, Soul Sister".
