Contrary to popular belief, when you are singing Karaoke, you're not supposed to say/sing everything the screen puts up in front of you. IE: (Instrumental)

Ron Burgandy can attest to that.

While The Viking was out sick (he contracted malaria from the swamps of Nicaragua), DJ Johnny Hotcakes was kind enough to fill in for him! We had The Letter's Jeramy Krone and Rachel Rome as guests on the show! The witty pair dazzled us with their humor and intellect (they're talented, too), and we were indeed amused. So check out the podcast!

RedFlecks (listen to the podcast)


"I looked them up on Myspace and after validating that I wouldn’t be making an embarrassment of myself, I dragged my ‘sound engineer/hip-hop producing/musical snob’ housemates out to support. We didn’t really expect what we saw and heard that night. We were in awe of everything about this Nashville-based band, but mostly by how much they convinced us. They stood on stage and believed that what they were giving us was worthy. The conversations came to a complete halt and it was like that for the rest of the assembled crowd as well - people were actually paying attention to this band…” Live gig review @ The Annex, NYC by freelance writer, Tamsyn ten Krooden"

The Viking and I had the privilege of interviewing these lovely, lovely people from Nashville, TN. Absolutely brimming with talent and ambition, releasing a second EP titled, "The Shiny Part" on the 18th, and even going on a South African tour next month! Check out their music; you won't be disappointed.

Tune in tomorrow morning to catch The Coming Weak!



Until next time (one day when I'm not distracted - Johnny's waving his armpits at me),
