Frizz is sipping Talisker Distiller's Edition, Bob's pouring Mellow Corn, and together they trace Buckley's story from café corners and strange gigs to record deals, mythmaking, and tragedy. It's a journey of genius and self-destruction, mothers and muses, church organs and Led Zeppelin, and far too many moments where Frizz almost dry-heaves from various things. Why not make it a drinking game? This is Jeff Buckley at his most divine, doomed, and dazzling — proof that one album really can feel eternal.

Howling Giant, Crucible and Ruin
This week, we reunite with our good friends and favorite riff-summoning adventurers, Howling Giant- the Nashville-based doom lords blending sludge, prog, psych, and sci-fi into some of the most mind-melting metal you'll ever hear. They're back on the show and ready to unleash their most massive and mind-bending record yet - available October 31st! With Frizz sipping a special-edition bottle of Woodford Reserve and Bob going full Kentucky Gentleman, we dive headfirst into Crucible and Ruin, an album that plays like a campaign through storm-forged planets, endless archives of worlds and legends, and battles waged with both scepters and scythes. We talk about their new dual guitar attack, cosmic world building, how their sound just keeps getting bigger, and why this October 31st release is going to shake the doom-metal cosmos. Strap in and roll for an exclusive first listen, while we confirm once and for all: yes, this album rips. And yes, your ass is grass.

Music Conspiracy Theories
Frizz and Bob are cracking open the crypt of music's strangest rumors, shadowy whispers, and full-blown tinfoil-hat territory. Frizz is sipping Ardbeg's Wee Beastie, Bob's got a Dark Apparition Stout from Jackie O's, and we're diving headfirst into the world of music conspiracy theories. From lizard people and faked deaths to government psyops and murder plots hiding in plain sight, we're peeling back the layers of the weirdest stories the music world has to offer. Did Jim Morrison escape to Africa? Was Laurel Canyon a CIA experiment? Does Garth Brooks have friends in low places? Stories so creepy that even Stephen King couldn't have written them... or did he? Lock the doors, dim the lights, and pour a strong one because things are about to get weird.

Peter Gabriel, So
Frizz and Bob take the other road in the Genesis breakup and following Peter Gabriel straight into So - the bold, bizarre, and beautiful album that turned an avant-garde art rocker into an unexpected pop icon. Frizz is sipping Ardnamurchan AD Single Malt and Bob's pouring a glass of Uncle Boojie's Double Oaked as we track Gabriel's transformation from inflatable stage props and silent retreats to chart-topping soul bangers, groundbreaking drum sounds, and the most iconic music video of the MTV era. This is Peter Gabriel at his most human, strange, spiritual, and romantic - and it might just be the weirdest way anyone's ever taken over the world.

Genesis, Invisible Touch
This week, Frizz is sipping Great Glen's Yuzu Gin and Bob's got a glass of Ardnahoe's Inaugural Release Single Malt Scotch as we dive into Invisible Touch - the sleek, synth-driven album that launched Genesis into full-blown pop superstardom. We unpack how a band that started with prog epics and fox masks ended up dominating MTV, topping charts, and soundtracking an entire decade. From political puppets and breakup ballads to keytar solos and stadium-sized hooks, this is Genesis at their most confident, polished, and unexpectedly iconic.
Frizz and Bob bring you a boozy podcast about all the untold stories behind your favorite music and the artists behind them... while drinking whiskey so you don't have to. Cheers!
