To celebrate the recent release of the new Space Jam, we're releasing the basketball episode of our multi-part Sportstacular. In this one, Steve and his brother Dave, an enthusiast for the cultural ephemera of sports, cure Joe of his general apathy towards the game with a selection of hits from the likes of John Tesh, Kurtis Blow, Aaron Carter, Alan Parsons, and even Big Shaq himself.

The Return of Crazy Frog
Crazy Frog is still crazy after all these years. Join us as we piece together the history of this annoying mascot for shameless musical capitalism based on an mp3 made by a Swedish teenager in 1997 and prepare ourselves for Crazy Frog's new quarantine album which, by our calculations, is certain to be at least a Pitchfork 6.

Jefferson Airplane - White Rabbit ft. Avery Mandeville (Little Hag)
Q: What do you get when you cross Sketches of Spain, Ravel's Bolero, Alice in Wonderland, wealthy parents, and way too much acid? A: A whole bunch of hippie nonsense. Join us as we follow the incredibly talented and pissed off Avery Mandeville down the rabbit hole that leads to, well, nothing important.

Emily Montes - Emily Montes (full album)
Emily Montes is five years old. She likes playing Roblox and going outside, and judging by the tone of this 5 minute long 14 track album, she's kind of having a hard time these days.

Mike Posner - I Took a Pill in Ibiza
Is it an existential crisis or a boring song? In this episode, Steve guides Joe on an illuminating journey into the expanding consciousness of dorm-room pop singer/producer turned poet and podcast philosopher Mike Posner through a thorough critical exegesis of his 2015 song 'I Took A Pill in Ibiza' to celebrate the start of his highly publicized walk around the entire United States (no, really). Mike, we hope the walk is going well and we're really sorry we thought your music was bad.
