| Ep. 126 - Funeral Proposals (of All Kinds!) | 23 Oct 2025 | 01:00:22 | |
"I'm about to play this $25 guitar on this really bad amp and i'm gonna scream and you can't stop me." Danna informs Funeral Proposals that their "Beach Song" music video won a major award a while back, and we decide that if you have strong opinions or a lot to say, either go into music, podcasting, or get a trombone. With a couple more shows and a single or two still to come this year, keep it locked by following them on IG!

We also debut a game made just for him, Green Flag, inspired by his latest song. Stream his music, give him a follow, and be on the lookout for one last single dropping before the upcoming album!

This was a rare setup: just JLaird from LoCLE Grown and Bre-J from Land of Panda holding it down, and a time was HAD! Bre shares some wild stories (it really is Always Something, amiright?) and talks about what’s next for the band with an album on the way early next year. Catch his solo performance of Land of Panda's latest singles, and keep an ear out for “Rita” and “Memories,” dropping soon ahead of the new album. Thanks again, Bre! SONGS PERFORMED:

| Ep. 121 - Taking a Limo to McDonalds (with Recess!) | 12 Sep 2025 | 01:45:46 | |
"Hoop with no net? I'm not playin' here." We literally could not stop laughing with Recess in this episode and literally had to play ourselves off at the end (midwestern goodbye, but make it a podcast). Recess has inspiring stories and heartfelt music that both captivates and makes you FEEL things. Their next single, 'Petal', will be releasing soon, but you can catch it first with us at the end of this episode! Thank you Recess! SONGS PERFORMED:

His new album "My Mind is Burning Up" drops next spring, but you can get early access by DMing him for a private link. In the meantime, dive into his extensive discography on all streaming platforms.

| Ep. 118 - From the Streets to the Stadium (w/ Da Land Brass Band!) | 21 Aug 2025 | 00:54:01 | |
We highly recommend checking this one out on YouTube because Da Land Brass Band absolutely lit up AJ Rocco’s during this live recording. They’ve got the spirit of a brass band mixed with a gritty Cleveland sound, and they’re out here asking, the real question: Can you dig it? DLBB is pushing boundaries with their latest EP Unnatural History (stream it everywhere now) and experimenting with new sounds. You’ll hear two of them in this episode, so don’t miss it. And if you get the chance, catch them live because the energy is unmatched. SONGS PERFORMED:

These guys have been a huge part of the music scene for many years, but their newest album "Janet Flight" has really become their proudest and most uniquely "them" project yet. The coolest thing about The Chewy Center is that they have never replaced a band member, only adding on new ones. Now a 5-piece band, they have began to draw the attention of the fans they are trying to attract - the dads of Cleveland. | |||
