James Ease & Jeff Smith: Cinematic Nightmares & South Texan Freeze Out
<p>Episode 59:</p><p>In this week’s episode of Atypical Daydream, host Josh Caldwell explores what happens when the road starts to feel a little too much like an omen. We sit down with Austin writer and filmmaker James Ease and Jeff Smith, the legendary frontman of the Austin cow-punk band The Hickoids.</p><br><p>James takes us on a West Texas road trip haunted by a series of eerie coincidences that felt like driving straight into a horror movie. Then, Jeff Smith details a brutal run through Northern Europe during a record-breaking cold spring, involving glitchy gear, a confusing loop around Antwerp, and a mad dash through an airport just to get back to the Texas heat.</p><br><p><strong>James Ease</strong></p><p>Website: <a href="https://www.jamesease.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.jamesease.com/</a></p><p>Instagram: @jameseease</p><p>Stoned In Texas book trailer: <a href="https://youtu.be/5c7ixno7910" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://youtu.be/5c7ixno7910</a></p><br><p>—--------------------</p><br><p><strong>Jeff Smith</strong></p><p>FB:</p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/TheeJeffSmith" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/TheeJeffSmith</a></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/hickoids" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/hickoids</a></p><p><a href="https://www.facebook.com/Saustex" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">https://www.facebook.com/Saustex</a></p><br><p>IG:</p><p>@hickoids</p><p>@saustex </p><p>@flagship_store_san_anto</p><p><a href="http://saustexrecords.bandcamp.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">saustexrecords.bandcamp.com</a></p><p><a href="http://hickoids.bandcamp.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">hickoids.bandcamp.com</a></p><br><p>Latest label releases:</p><p><a href="https://joecephus.bandcamp.com/album/trippin-through-texas" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Trippin' Through Texas, by Joecephus and The George Jonestown Massacre</a></p><p><a href="https://thekrayolas.bandcamp.com/album/barbed-wire-road" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Barbed Wire Road, by The Krayolas</a></p><br><p>Read the full episode transcript <a href="https://www.atypicaldaydream.com/transcripts/episode-59-james-ease-jeff-smith" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><strong>HERE</strong></a></p><br><p>---------------------------</p><p><strong>SUPPORT ATYPICAL DAYDREAM</strong></p><br><p>Want more Atypical Daydream?
