episode 31 - emily and jack smell that smell (of the worst classic rock songs ever)
ooooh! it's all around you... the summer, i mean! and nothing says summer quite like a ridiculous classic rock radio countdown. we decided to do our own this memorial day weekend by coming up with the TOP 20 WORST CLASSIC ROCK SONGS OF ALL TIME. we're pretty proud of the result! but you... you're gonna hate it. you'll probably be ready to take the jack and emily ship to the shore and throw away the oar FOREVURRRRR by the end of this one, that's how goddamn explosive (like a real bronx cheer!) some of these takes are. but hey

episode 30 - jack and emily beckon you toward their SONIC TEMPLE
no wussy babies allowed, it's real rock and roll and we summarize a month's worth of shows-- from the hook-laden indie mastery of ALVVAYS (complete with crap audience) to the mindblowing soundscapes of the legendary KRAFTWERK, with a little thing we're calling SCOTTISH TWEEKEND smack dab in the middle (i.e. concerts by power pop stalwarts BELLE AND SEBASTIAN and TEENAGE FANCLUB). please use this episode carefully, but also play at maximum volume.

episode 29 - emily and jack got the ill communication (a celebration of 1994)
what makes 1994 the best year in music history? hmm... how about "illmatic," released 30 years to the day that we recorded the episode? how does that grab you? not impressed? okay... well then what about "parklife" by blur and "definitely maybe" by oasis? how you like those, eh? still holding out, i see. fair enough... but have you considered "the downward spiral"? "grace"? "ready to die"? "bee thousand"? well... fucking have you, man? oh okay i see you're more of a hella mega tour guy. well guess what? freaking the blue album and "dookie" came out in 1994! take that, hella mega tour guy...
this is our first in a possible series celebrating the wealth of treasures that 1994 has to offer, from gangster rap to indie rock; from funny good times to some of the most emotionally gripping music ever made; from justin to kelly. if you get past the ridiculous first five minutes i promise you this is one of the best episodes
