Longmont Potion Castle

yeah is it weird when the news came one of my first thoughts was "LPC lost his only friend"

My name is Whip. I was recently on a frigate.

apparently the new one has a ton of alex trebek

yeah im halfway through and theres already much alex content

admittedly when he died one of my first thoughts was sympathy for LPC cuz he must've considered him a friend at this point

Kind of a tense moment on the new one where what sounds like a 7 year old picks up, and I'm praying he doesnt fuck with a little kid and freak him out and make him upset. But LPC seamlessly modulates his routine and the kid immediately gets into the spirit and starts having a blast yelling into the phone and answering silly questions and it ends up being very adorable.

"Wwwhat is yourrr opinnnnion of rubberbandsss?"
"I love rubberbands!"
"Do you like to feeeed squirrels?"
"HOW DID YOU KNOW I LIKE TO FEED SQUIRRELS? BECAUSE I NAMED A SQUIRREL AND I FEED HIM! SO YES I LIKE TO FEED SQUIRRELS!"

Haven't done comparative study, but good screamin' over guitarr: https://deertick.bandcamp.com/track/divine-providence-feat-longmont-potion-castle

Longmont used to be a cow town, now it's practically a suburb of Boulder.

started listening to the last few I missed, he's just as funny as ever though oftentimes a little more conceptual, for better or worse

the moment OEO mentions above is cute - I was a bit nervous about it as well but it's actually pretty cool, because for once he found someone who's taking him seriously, it's a really fun conversation

but the ones I really like are "Gentlemen's Quarters" and "Skipper's Housewarming" on 18, because he manages to make both ladies laugh uncontrollably which I think catches him off guard and causes him to break character a bit. one of them even offers to come over, and *not* because she wants to kick his ass! I don't think that's ever happened on an LPC album before
