Sure, it’s our 46th but it’s Lenny’s 50th. Our co-host misses his 3rd show – but he’s got a good excuse – he had one of those bigger birthdays that everyone’s having. So, Jake and Tyler put together a playlist just for him. Maybe you too. Also, Tyler blew it in the first break – just blew it. The referenced podcast is called We Will Rank You – not We Will Rate You – Some fan he is. Also, the song is called “The Man Don’t Give A Fuck” – not The Man Doesn’t Give A Fuck. We here at The Casual Sound apologize for any confusion this may have caused.

A little something new bringing us into episode 43. In fact, you’ll probably find some new loves that are recent releases and those that we’re blowing the dust off of. This is all before we dive into a discussion around the exhausting and constantly relevant question about separating the artist from their art. I’ve gotta say, we present a lot of old information about old songs that I think we news to all of us. We don’t research our shows often… maybe we should. It’s more interesting.

PLAYLIST:

1. Hater – Something
2. Cockney Rejects – Police Car
3. Shame – One Rizla
4. Dubstar – Not So Manic Now
5. Tallies – Wound Up Tight

What does Jake Ryan sound like when he feels like his buttons are pushed? Also, there’s a disproportionate amount of new tunes here… which makes it an exceptional episode. Anyway, after this episode was over, Tyler (on Lenny’s recommendation) went and flipped Jake’s toilet paper to deliver in the opposite way of his preference. He texted within 2 hours to let us know that he caught it. True story.

It’s true – the Tiger King is mentioned, not for his recent re-sentencing of 21 years in prison for his attempted murder for hire of that bitch Carol Baskins (his words, not mine) but for his songs, that aren’t really his but remind me of The Mighty Lemon Drops (and not for their songwriting.)
