Now Hear This Paul Kaminski & Ryan Brady

The season finale of Now Hear This has arrived, and with it a cranked-to-eleven episode! Brian and Simon from the Sodajerker podcast are on hand to guide us through This Is Spinal Tap. This epic album from the fake (but real) english (but American) hard rockers who want you to smell their respective glove is pound-for-pound one of the best rock-pastiche records in existence... and we're deep-diving through it all! From satanic Christmas celebrations to the twee cups and cakes of P.G. Woodhouse, we hope you enjoy walking through this surprisingly epic album as much as we did. Now hear this: "Sex Farm," "Big Bottom," and "Cups and Cakes."

Hope you're ready to join a fan club, because this episode is new and NOT a mistake! Now Hear This welcomes special guest Joe Pierandozzi to walk us through the wild, whacky and otherwise wonderful 1993 Jellyfish LP Spilt Milk. This Sturmer/Manning masterwork came in over-time, over-budget and over-blown, but has evolved into the kind of cult record that would spawn a million indie darlings - and continues to inspire to this day. Now hear this: "New Mistake," "Russian Hill," and "He's My Best Friend."

What's his name? It's RINGO! What's the album we're talking about today? OLD WAVE! The best Ringo album you've likely...never heard? In 1983 when former Beatle Ringo Starr needed a new sound to revitalize his solo career, ol' Ritchie enlisted the help of Eagles rocker Joe Walsh to craft a clean, catchy, up-tempo record that embodied the very best in Starr's capabilities. But a string of flops wrecked label havoc with this collection, and its contents would take years to surface in the US and GB. Discussing Old Wave with us today is founder of the hit Yesterday & Today podcast, Wayne Kaminski - who's here to talk Ringo, Caveman, tracking down dutch imports in the early 80's, and much more. Now hear this: Hopeless, Be My Baby, In My Car.

Joining us on this journey into the wire is longtime Ryan & Paul podcast contributor Jack Faye, whose own music is is enough to make you lose your self control! Now hear this: I Don't Remember, Not One Of Us, Biko.

Ready to shine a light on the ultimate rock'n'roll band? Well, break out the cheap stuff and get those taxes in order because Now Hear This is taking a journey into the depraved south of France to deep dive into the Rolling Stones atmospheric masterpiece: Exile On Main Street. This torn and frayed offering of drunken stomps and trademark Jagger/Richards balls-out fury is held in high esteem by most...but has it always been that way? To answer that question, Paul is joined by the incomparable musician/singer/songwriter Luther Russell (Those Pretty Wrongs, The Bootheels) to uncover the history behind this iconic album, and get some rocks off in the process. Now hear this: Loving Cup, Ventilator Blues, Tumbling Dice.
