   EP64: The Host Country “Not a Country Band”

   The Host Country joins us this week, the Des Moines indie rock band featuring our own host D on keys and vocals, and no, they’re not a country band. After more than 15 years together, the band sat down at Trilix Studio ahead of the release of their new album “Liminal Ways,” with bass player Tom asking some of the questions. They look back on how Ty and D met through the theater department in college, how World Cup broadcasts gave them their name, and how each new member shaped their sound. They also dig into “Liminal Ways,” an album about being in midlife and in between a lot of things. Stick around for a clip of their new song “Leave A Mark” at the end, and catch the full live performance on our YouTube channel next week. In The Round is produced and recorded at Trilix Studio in Des Moines, Iowa. © 2026, Trilix Studio intheroundpodcast.com instagram.com/intheroundpodcastofficial youtube.com/@InTheRoundPodcast trilixstudio.com

   EP63: Juliano Dock "I Gotta Make It Happen"

   Meet Juliano Dock, also known as Trapper Juli, a Des Moines hip-hop artist who's been building his sound since high school, when he was burning his own mixtapes onto CDs long before he ever had access to a real studio. We talk about the musical family that raised him, how he turned a childhood stutter into part of his signature flow, and the nostalgic, sample-heavy sound behind his beats. We also get into the real challenges facing the Des Moines hip-hop scene and how he's been showing up for it, from Porch Fest to collaborating with other local artists. Stick around for a clip of the performance at the end. Be sure to check out Juliano Dock, and stay tuned for the full live session dropping next week, along with more from In The Round.

   EP62: EP62: Dreamthief "Never Say No to a Riff"

   Meet Dreamthief, the five-piece heavy rock band out of Cedar Rapids blending doom, hardcore, and straight-up rock 'n' roll into jams. The band walks us through how they build songs together as a group, plus the story behind their new unreleased track, which involves a sample from Quentin Tarantino. We also get into their debut album "Disrupt the Flow of Everyday Life," the tight-knit Cedar Rapids scene that brought them all together, and yes, we finally meet Bone Man. Stick around for a clip of the performance at the end. Be sure to check out Dreamthief, and stay tuned for the full live performance dropping next week, along with more from In The Round.
