Are you hip? Or broken down on the ice? Once again, the Dream Regime gathers and this time out comes cautionary tales full of speed bumps from hell, jewel saws run amuck, falling past windows onto flagstone and a little saggy skin broken elbows, dude. We're talkin wall to wall stories with a bit of the blarney digression to relieve the pain, this is a trip without the flare. Feel the confetti, folks!

Happy Halloween folks! In honor, we pay tribute to all the Ghosts we've crossed paths with, those who've Ghosted us and the afterlife. Spooky, haunting and full of cantankerous spirits this episode also has a little suprise from the set of the Coen Brothers film. The Ballad of Buster Scruggs. For all you young and cool fans, Bob couldn't make it, but we soldiered on without him. Feel the Love!

If ya love Pirates, fancy yourself a Rogue, or have secretly dated a Stripper, this episode could be for you. Or more importantly, if you love hearing Keith Richards wax on fondly about Tom Waits, their time collaborating on Rain Dogs or get all giddy living vicariously through the Waits/Brennan 80s trilogy masterpieces, which defined the direction of their career, you'll want to listen to this one. The Dream Regime is in top form with Bill starring in a new Indy Film, the Fairy Podmother sprinkling her theatrical light to eager crowds and Bob drumming us through his Punk days, lessons be damned! Confetti rains folks, feel the love!

This episode we depart from our usual zany leap into the unknown and focus all attention on celebrating the 50th anniversay vinyl release of Tom Waits' first album, called a masterpiece by some, a major entrance onto the musical stage by others, and didn't bother Bob. In appreciation of the new 180g 45rpm vinyl released by Anti-, The Dream Regime shares stories, anecdotes and the major impact Closing Time had on peoples lives. Ok well Bob wasn't born yet but he was hearing a faint murmur of it from another reality, causing his speedy descent into this realm. And then, the Eagles covered it...er, not Bob, but Ol' 55, turning it into a top ten hit, since Neil Young had already long ago left that other bird band. So maybe a little zany is still woven in there, but for all our die-hard Tom fans, this one will make you swoon, laugh, cry and thank your lucky stars that he recorded Closing Time. Because without it, none of the other diamonds would have followed. Feel the love, folks!

To ring in Season 9, the Dream Regime tackles one of Tom's favorite subjects, the Vagabond, and all those who don't fit in to the straight and narrow, like the mysterious 19th century french Leather Man, who circled the same 365 mile northeastern route every year. That's right, it sounds just like a story worthy of a Coen Brothers film starring none other than...Monsieur Waits! And to top it all off, there's a riveting surprise reading by The Scherm from Kerouacs' "The Vanishing American Hobo," and a bit o' wisdom from the Fairy Podmother -" it's good to have a home and to also be free." Enjoy this chaco canyon full 3 Theme Song Episode folks, feel the love!!

For the die-hard Waits fans, this episode finds the Dream Regime reviewing a Pop Matters article by Alexander Heigl featuring his "15 of the best songs" list that encapsulates Toms’ incredibly varied career. Trying to illustrate his entire catalog of song styles with 15 tunes is a brave act, one that we couldn't ignore. So we dove in with glee, a hammer and a nail on glass and came up with a bit of respect and some serious chatter. It all kicks off with a surprise visit from Fashion Guru Tadd Gunn and his take on the Golden Globes ensembles only to follow with an honory gratitude day for our beloved co-founder, Bill. Feel the Love!

What is Reality? Thats the question the celebrated comedy group The Firesign Theatre asked and we were fortunate enough to hang out in co-founder Phil Proctor's reality in this episode, totally engulfed in his hilarious and dangerous tales. From his start as a child actor in New York television and Broadway to acting with the likes of Jack Nicholson and Orson Welles to more recently voice acting for Pixar movies and the long-running animated series, "Rugrats", Phil had lots to tell. Did we mention his 3 grammy nominations? The Firesign Theatre's album, "Don't Crush That Dwarf, Pass The Pliers" being inducted into the Library of Congress? Or his surviving the first gangland massacre in San Francisco's Chinatown in the 70s? It sounds almost beyond reality, right? But no friends, it's all here in this wild 90 minutes so augment your reality and jump right in. It's your Lucky Day!
