  1. Guys PLEASE pay close attention to the "good video" rules. Thanks!

    • NOT an act, a fake, or funny-on-purpose.
    • NOT a music video or song performance.
    • NOT an "Everything is Terrible" style edit.
    • It can't rely on the visual to understand. It needs to work on an audio podcast.
    • For long videos, let me know when I should start it to get to the good part. There should be a way to embed the video to start at the time you want.
    • It's not too similar to other videos and subject matter that has been used before.


  2. Bitch, you guessed it!!! I would love a weekly round-up of good music hosted by Stard. Just a half hour with whatever Earwolf guest is on that week. Playing and recommending music. Kinda like how the Sklars push the music they like at the top and bottom of their show.

    if i did one, it'd just be an excuse to jam with a bunch of people

    Yeah, good Melvins mention! Have you ever thought about trying to get Buzz on the show? He seems like a really nice and funny guy in interviews, and I think he lives in Hollywood!

    Oh man I'd love that but I'm not sure they'd know who he is. I've mentioned to Besser how much of a dream guest performer he'd be but for some reason Besser can't get into them (surprising). I need my own music podcast I guess.

  4. i was trying to say he's digging for tiny nuggets of gold in these dungheaps of songs, but he won't have it! howard is different, that's why we love him.

    Ā 

    I will say though that if you do get on the topic of more timeless music and the classic bands and stuff, he's heard it all and can get surprisingly wonky. it's almost like he's lived 1000 years and is just bored with quality.

  5. I think you mean C+. Solid C+ episode.

    Ā 

    Also, how's the bundle selling Stard? Should I buy the single and the bundle again? Is there a PayPal where I can just give you guys money?

    I have no idea actually, but no need to buy again if you already have it. I just want people to have it.

    I'm thinking of putting the Sly Stallone theme up somewhere to buy.

  6. (directed towards Stard) is that Howard's high-pitched Roger Waters-esque screeching in Rudolph Chewed Off or is it a sample or instrument of some sort?

    Ā 

    also I can't wait to (hopefully) hear this Tim Armstrong collab! never got into Rancid much, but Operation Ivy are one of my favorites when it comes to ska... on par with all the classic 2 Tone stuff in my opinion.

    it's a sample of some sort. love it though. love roger waters (howard doesn't)

    Listening to this ep again (for like the 10th time), and it really does sound fantastic. How much time do you think you spent mixing this? What kind of post-recording work has to be done for any podcast ep? This stuff intrigues me.

    It really depends on the needs of the podcast. The latest Sly Stallone probably took me 5-6 hours all said and done, at least.

    Ā 

    I remember this one took a long time (I wouldn't be surprised if it was over 10 hours), because I really wanted to make it special and I was personally involved in putting it on. So I recorded the entire show multi-tracked for every single mic and instrument, which I've never done before or since for a live podcast. I basically broke it down and built it back up from scratch so I could get the band sounding this way. Took many hours because I mixed it like a record. Normally live shows are just mastering a basic stereo mix, as they usually don't call for more. I wish everyone could have seen it in person, it was magic, especially when Sean showed up.

  8. I don't even use Rotten Tomatoes because I have to waste 5 seconds re-learning what every icon means every time I open it.

    Also, holy shit, I didn't realize the Holiday Bundle was a year old. I've been putting it off since they started talking about it this year but damn, now I realize I'm more of a slacker than I imagined.

    I just want chartists to realize that it's like the Who Charted magnum opus
