When I start to feel that pull, turns out I just pulled myself...
For those of you who are unaware of the Flatbasset Radio format, here's what you're looking at: TCDroogsma is our resident MP3 junkie. As you've probably noticed in his Songs Of The Week column, he's not always the most positive music fan. In an effort to prove that he is, in fact, a fan of music, we give him an hour each week to play the songs he's digging and talk a little bit about them. Once he's recorded his podcast we put it right here on the website for free to stream and/or download!
This week's episode finds TCDroogsma throwing together an episode for the Memorial Day weekend. He decided to steal an idea from his nemesis The Current and play three song blocks from three of his favorite artists. Along the way he confesses that he's not working too hard on this one, tries to get a sponsorship from "whoever makes falafel chips," celebrates an icon's birthday, discusses just what's going to be written on his tombstone, triples down on the podcast's second-ever request, goes on "a" Weezer rant, but not all of his Weezer rants, puts on for his old minivan, shouts out his parents, and celebrates the 20th anniversary of "The Blue Album" by explaining how a Weezer track laid the blueprint for the rest of his life.
