Newest Industry Presents: Flatbasset Radio - Episode #13


(THIS POST ORIGINALLY APPEARS ON THE TWIN CITIES BLOG NEWEST INDUSTRY)

Gimme the loot, gimme the loot!


Well hello again, music junkies! Welcome to the 13th episode of our podcast Flatbasset Radio!

For those of you who don't know quite what you're looking at, here's the story. Each week TCDroogsma reviews songs for our Songs Of The Week column. Since he's usually down on those songs we asked him to start recording a weekly podcast for us to show us that, yes, he is actually a music fan and deserves to keep his post.

This week is Membership Drive week here at Newest Industry! TCDroogsma (and Newest Industry) implore all of our listeners/readers to make a donation. Remember, with every donation we'll send you a bumper sticker that says, “I Make Newest Industry Happen.” Put it on your car's bumper that way you can drive around and show off to everybody just how smart, hip, and culturally aware you are! Plus, you know everybody hates just walking around and thinking, “Boy, that's fine car, but I'd just like to know more about that person. What do they believe in? How do they spend their money? How can I acquire this information without actually talking to them?” Be part of the solution, not part of the problem.

In this week's episode TCDroogsma shamelessly whores out for donations, laments the breakup of the only prog-rock band he ever liked, plays us his new personal theme song, questions whether any good music has come out since 1998, struggles to explain his “renowned” big things/little things theory, and plays us one of his favorite love songs.
