210 // Some A's for your Q's
31/10/2016 Duration: 52minIn this episode we focus mainly on questions and topics from our wonderful listeners. Topics range from the Stranger Things Soundtrack recent vinyl pressings, all things Halloween, the classifications of being a Hipster, our favorite live albums, if we were an actor who would we want to be, many things sports related, our favorite songs about MURDER, the USPS and media mail, radio stations, and A Tribe Called Quest. We also discuss Martin Shkreli and his plans to release unheard music from his private collection ( The Beatles, Nirvana, Wu-Tang, etc...) if Donald Trump wins the presidential election. In an unprecedented anomaly I don't believe we spoke about Kanye West at all. We close the show with a track from True Widow from their recent album AVVOLGERE titled "Theurgist". Definitely one of my favorite albums to be released this year. You can find them via Relapse Records.
