Sorry! We got lazy and skipped a couple months. But our good pal Sasha (who previous joined us on episode five to discuss the Black Eyed Peas) was in town and she inspired us to get back on the podcasting wagon. She joins us for this episode, which is ostensibly about "Party Rock Anthem" by LMFAO, but also about our primal urges to learn dance routines, our unofficial contest to come up with the most awkward analogy for people of multiracial descent, and our discovery of what "FF" stands for in an ad for an transsexual escort.

The Peter Bjorn and John show at the Magic Stick on September 1 was so good that it moved me to write about it-something that doesn't happen often these days. For brevity's sake, a quick list of awesomes: 5. The fact that this show was actually at The Magic Stick and NOT at the Crofoot . It's boring to keep up this conversation about how much better the Crofoot is as a venue than the Majestic Complex. It's also boring to keep complaining about how much of a pain in the ass it is to drive to [...]
I am a member of two Mix CD clubs. They're great! You get 12 people together and each month someone is responsible for sending the other 11 members a mix. You get new music, new perspectives, all for the price of the effort it takes to make one of these yourself and the subsequent packaging and postage. For various reasons, I wanted to put together a mix of American music for my latest mix. Partly, I was trying to understand what American music means to me, and what kinds of songs and sounds I find distinctly American. To [...]
True to our word, it's June and we're back! We're on that modern rock tip this month, examining the wimpiest music that can be called "rock," namely the popular Irish band the Script, and their newest anthemic attempt at U2/Coldplay-level superstardom, "For the First Time." You can check out the video for the song here . Come for the witty-ish discussion of Top 40 singles, stay for the awful attempts at imitating an Irish accent.

It's been over a year since we recorded our last episode, but we're finally back with plenty to say about Enrique Iglesias and Rihanna, plus lots of talk about breakfast, coitus, and the risque female artist gravy train. As always, clips from the songs are spliced in, but if you want to watch the videos first, you can see Rihanna's "S&M" here and Enrique Iglesias's "Tonight" (the explicit version with all the cursing and nudity) here .
