Chicago '26 - Delayed, Diverted & Determined
<p>Chicago ‘26: three nights, one tornado warning, and a travel itinerary scripted by chaos itself. Night one gets two songs into Talia Hall before everyone — band included — gets herded into the beer cellar for shelter. Night two, the Empty Bottle delivers as the stragglers finally roll in. Night three goes big: massive venue, four massive acts, and Garrett sliding in right as the headliner hits the stage. Gaspar recaps his travel disasters in full Boy Scout rock-uniform glory, and Mike won’t stop bragging about his Lincoln balcony seats in the Land of Lincoln.</p><p>They were, against all odds, determined. Chicago ’26 unfolds like a tribute to Planes, Trains and Automobiles—but Unified Scene style.</p><p>chalk drawing courtesy of::</p><p>https://www.instagram.com/latenightchalkshow</p><p>Please send us a voicemail:</p><p>https://www.speakpipe.com/TheHoodratRecapPodcast</p><p>Please contact us at:</p><p>https://linktr.ee/thehoodratrecap?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=8a8d133d-6a72-4625-a7ab-c3624d823383</p>

Tad Kubler Complex Conversations
<p>Tad Kubler stops by The Hoodrat Recap and it feels less like an interview and more like catching up with an old friend. We dig into his new LP Casanova Complex — how he played and engineered more of it than you might expect — and then things get good. Tad unloads road stories from his years with Lifter Puller and The Hold Steady that you will not hear anywhere else. What went down in Albuquerque? Why is Tad Kubler no longer allowed near the fireworks/pyrotechnics? All of that gets answered. So put on your head light…err (or whatever the hell Neil Diamond sang about ET?)</p><p>Listen to Tad Kubler's new LP on Bandcamp:</p><p>https://tadkubler.bandcamp.com/album/the-casanova-complex</p><p>Please send us a voicemail:</p><p>https://www.speakpipe.com/TheHoodratRecapPodcast</p><p>Please contact us at:</p><p>https://linktr.ee/thehoodratrecap?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=8a8d133d-6a72-4625-a7ab-c3624d823383</p>

4 Boston- Mark from Minny Scene Report
<p>Mike had less than 24 hours in Boston. Did that stop him from catching two shows at The Sinclair? Absolutely not. Snuck in under the radar, did what he had to do, and lived to tell the tale.</p><p>Mark from Minny joins us fresh off four nights in Boston to break down every single one of them — and while he’s at it, he’s handing down the Ten Commandments of General Administration shows. Consider it required listening before your next THS outing. Mark has seen things. Mark has learned things. Mark has smelled things. Mark is passing the knowledge.</p><p>Boston weekend in the books. The Hoodrats were there-kinda.</p><p>Please send us a voicemail:</p><p>https://www.speakpipe.com/TheHoodratRecapPodcast</p><p>Please contact us at:</p><p>https://linktr.ee/thehoodratrecap?utm_source=linktree_profile_share<sid=8a8d133d-6a72-4625-a7ab-c3624d823383</p>
