Hosted by Richie Sessions and Jacob Tilton. It's a podcast at the intersection of gravitas and levity, southern grit(s) and tepid participation, the absurd and the sublime. Melancholy boredom seeking wide-eyed gratitude. We may discuss the Beatles, mental health, or perhaps the Beatles’ mental health. Lots of music, lots of laughs, lots of wonder.
It's Christmastime with Sandra McCracken! We loved talking with her about her Christmases growing up and all other miscellanea. We also debuted a new Christmas jingle. So grab some turkey and some mistletoe and have a listen.
