  • Kraftwerk Live in Los Angeles
    Nov 26 2024

    Join us on the "Autobahn" as we take a ride to Los Angeles to discuss two nights of Kraftwerk's nine-show residency earlier this summer where Mark and Brad got to see Autobahn and Radio-Activity performed in their entirety.

    While this episode may seem more suited for Carla and Brad Talk about Krautrock, find out if Carla and Brad won Mark over with these pioneers of electronic music.

  • Remembering Shane MacGowan
    May 22 2024

    .There’s an old Irish benediction that goes, “May you be in Heaven an hour before the Devil knows you’re dead.” By our best guess, Shane MacGowan arrived three hours late, drank the Devil under the table, and jimmied the lock on the Pearly Gates.

    Come raise a glass, or six, or seven with us, as we celebrate our dear, departed Shane: the Last of the Great Irish Poets.

    We’re a bit tardy with this, due to serial editing disasters. But it’s never too late to get your Shane MacGowan on. Here’s to you, Kid.

  • Antics & Roadshows (w/ Bully, Belly, & U2)
    Dec 1 2023

    It's been a while, listeners, but we've mustered a quorum. Bob's back with us today (alas, Mark is not), as we talk about some recent shows we've seen and generally ham it up.

    First Bob waxes rhapsodic about Nashville band Bully. Then Brad swaps out a vowel and steers the conversation toward Belly. And we wrap it all up with Carla's trip to Vegas to see U2 in The Sphere.

  • It's All Rock and Roll to Me (w/ The Hold Steady, Yeah Yeah Yeahs and Car Seat Headrest)
    Oct 19 2023

    Attached hereto is the final episode of the Carla, Brad and Mark Sessions. We kept it Stateside for this one, with picks from The Hold Steady, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Car Seat Headrest.

    Carla could've used Bob's alliance for her pick. (He'll be back soon!) Brad shared his disdain for new music from old bands. And Mark delivered our favorite pick of the episode. Get ready to rock! These songs sound best played loud.

  • Punk + Post-Punk Covers (w/ Wire, Siouxsie, & the Slits)
    Sep 13 2023

    Here's another bite-sized episode from the Carla, Brad, and Mark Sessions. Three-quarters capacity means just three songs, but we made 'em count.

    Brad asked for cover songs by punk and post-punk bands, and the Skeleton Crew responded with Wire, Siouxsie & the Banshees, and the Slits.

    Turn on, tune in, and rock out with the Mixtape Diaries, as we, um, let it all hang out!

  • Remembering Sinéad
    Aug 25 2023

    Last month we lost Sinéad O'Connor. This one really hurts. 35 years ago, Sinéad's first LP was melting the cassette decks in our cars. Through the years, we moved with her music, and it never got old.

    Songs of heartbreak, defiance, freedom, vindication: Sinéad sang her life and her truth. If her music doesn't move you ... well, unsubscribe.

    Sister, we are stretched on your grave. Nothing compares 2 u.
