I'm going to see Blondshell (w/Liz Phair) thx to Bandsplain — after I listened to the 24 Questions with Phair, I looked up the tour dates and promptly bought tickets. I'm not totally sure but under the impression Blondshell will play first, then will back Phair during her set. Psyched!

Oh, I think Blondshell's just opening, then Phair with her band. Anyway, should be good.

Posted this in the Radiohead thread, but if you liked the Bandsplain on Radiohead, Cole Cuchna -- the second of the two guests in that ep -- is doing a full season on In Rainbows on his podcast Dissect.

24 Questions w Dogstar today was v fun, Rob & Bret seem like good dudes; esp enjoyed Yasi giving Keanu shit for playing bass throughout lol

Dammit, Yasi, why did you even bring a guest on the Smiths episodes if you’re just gonna talk over her every time she says more than 4 words in a row
― lethbridge-pfunkboy (hardcore dilettante), Monday, 4 December 2023 13:45 (five months ago) link
It gets better in the second half, but that was the first (only?) time that Yasi bugged me. She mentions having some heavy shit going on in her life so maybe it was just a bad day.
― Cow_Art, Monday, 4 December 2023 14:23 (five months ago) link
She really did talk all over Naomi Fry.
Considering that we learned in the recent 60 Songs live episode that Yasi's most streamed song of the decade was Call Me Maybe, she should do an episode on Carly Rae Jepsen.

Is there some legal/royalties reason why the music clips are so short on this podcast?Even for the albums that I'm already familiar with, I feel like I'm playing Name That Tune, trying to identify the song in the first 10 notes, before the clip gets cut off.

Hang on, the episodes are 3 years long WITHOUT INCLUDING MUSIC?!?
― Tsar Bombadil (James Morrison), Wednesday, 20 December 2023 23:57 (four months ago) link
it used to be a listen-along format on spotify only with full songs but since they switched to Ringer they only do short clips which is standard for most podcasts (not all) bc of fair use copyright etcanyway the Kevin Drew 24QPP ep is really good and deep and nice(in contrast the Evan Dando ep last week was chaos incorporated lol)
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 21 December 2023 02:33 (four months ago) link
That's good to hear. I couldn't make it one question into the Dando interview, his way of speaking is like nails on a chalkboard to me.

The Dando episode reminded me of so many conversations I have had with smart people who's brains got battered by drugs.

Yasi’s 24 Questions with Joe Talbot of IDLES is a fuckin all-timer. So good!Plus he has an A+ accent
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Wednesday, 21 February 2024 03:17 (two months ago) link
Bandsplain fiiiiiinally back with an entire season curated towards me and my tastes that have remained unchanged since 15 years of age :DGrunge prehistory ep Green River, Mother Love Bone & Temple of the Dog w Patty SchemelLeading up to next week’s Pearl Jam two parter weeeeeeeI only wish Yasi & Patty were more enthused by Mother Love Bone but it is also unsurprising as few ppl are as into them as say, uh, me lol
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 18 April 2024 21:19 (two weeks ago) link
otherwise a fun episode & lots of incredible info nuggets like Chris Cornell auditoned to be lead singer of Shadow! my only note is i think Yasi sometimes gets caught up in her own research & doesn’t always have the in-the-moment ear or knack for picking up something a guest says & diving into that, a few missed opportunities with Patty’s comments imo but overall a v cool conversation
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 18 April 2024 21:24 (two weeks ago) link
Ooh! Can’t wait to tune in. That’s definitely a Yasi thing. I think it’s partly congenital, partly conditioned by limp-ass guests she’s had on the past (cf. Smiths episode)
― It was on a accident (hardcore dilettante), Thursday, 18 April 2024 23:12 (two weeks ago) link
yeah definitely
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Friday, 19 April 2024 00:18 (two weeks ago) link
about halfway thru, Patty def doing a lot of “yeah” and “uh-huh” but it’s been a good listen so far. i need to replace my old cd’s of a lot of this music i foolishly traded in many years ago

This is absolutely the biggest problem with an otherwise great podcast.
― Indexed, Thursday, 25 April 2024 14:32 (one week ago) link
sometimes, too, if she's not high on the band, she spends an inordinate amount of time explaining why she's not high on the band, which is weird, because you have to assume most of the people listening are

**5 hour** Pearl Jam episode is up! weeeeeee :D
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 25 April 2024 15:03 (one week ago) link
^ i do feel like it’s some weird kind of karma that the guest os Kevin Ryan who is much more sports bro than I would have wanted as a guesthe’s not terrible just kinda basic i guess, convo is good so far mostly but dude coming out of the gate w a Tom Brady reference was like “oh no i am in hell?” lol
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 25 April 2024 20:54 (one week ago) link
Ha, Kevin is, or was, a total The Ringer sports dude, kinda of funny, but def a football / locker room personality. I will expect copious sports analogies. I’m not a huge Pearl Jam fan, but will listen to this all the same.
― sknybrg, Thursday, 25 April 2024 22:20 (one week ago) link
he does have a lot of uh fan cred, and is very engaged so it’s not like it’s a wash or BAD in any way … i just am v triggered by sports bros with this band i because in my experience they were the most insufferable fans in the 90’s so there’s like a weariness in my soul for that specific vibequietly i wish it was at least someone my age or older who had a bit more context for the early chronology of the band idk hello yes i love looking a gift horse in the mouth
― werewolves of laudanum (VegemiteGrrl), Thursday, 25 April 2024 23:03 (one week ago) link
In high school, we had a friend who was a sports bro PJ megafan. A local band wrote a song about him that rhymed "Pearl Jam rare imports" with "Jordan boxer shorts"
