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.

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.

Friendship is rare, do you know what i'm saying to you? It's in that spirit of friendship that Paul & Ryan pay tribute to the self-titled debut album of one of the greatest bands to rock your socks since the turn of the millennium: the wonderboys known as Tenacious D. The story goes that tacos and the promise of guitar lessons brought Jack Black and Kyle Gass together to form this fateful duo back in the mid-1990's, and since then Kage & Jables have graced everything from the small screen, to the the silver screen, to the screen door of Lee's house in jaw-dropping rock'n'roll fashion. Sure, Tenacious D is all in good fun...but they're also, like, an incredibly strong rock band. Seriously. Now hear this: "Lee," "Friendship," "Tribute," and "Wonderboy."

We're dirty, sweet and we're your pod! For the season sophomore offering of NOW HEAR THIS we bring you the adventures of a man with stars in his beard, whose eye doth shine like an Egyptian ruby...

Rex, Marc and his outfit of like-minded rock and roll jeepsters put some serious boogie in the bottoms of the world with their blockbuster LP Electric Warrior back in '71. Ryan and Paul will now peer into the mind of a mad magician, and our velvet hats just might start a revolution in the process. Now hear this: "Bang A Gong (Get It On)," "Mambo Sun," "Peaches," and "The Motivator."

This raucous recording captured the hearts, minds and eardrums of the nation when it was released in the spring of 1995, driven by monster singles like "Peaches" and "Lump", coupled with memorable music videos and a high-octane spirit that epitomized the decade itself. So get on out of that buggy marsh and move into the country with Paul and Ryan as the first of 4 previously unreleased Ryan Brady episodes blasts its way into your eardrums! Now hear this: "Kitty," "Naked and Famous," "Peaches," and "Lump."

Hello ... HELLO again! Holy smokes folks, we're riding the new wave with The Cars' 1984 album Heartbeat City. Grab your skinny ties, Fairlight CMI synthesizers, headless Steinberger bass guitars, and best impressions of Ric Ocasek and let's fly. Wait, no ... drive. Paul and Ryan are both big fans of The Cars and this LP represents six months of Ric, Benjamin, Elliot, Greg, and David's painstaking production guided by legend Mutt Lange which ultimately resulted in a sparkling pop masterpiece. If you like big warm synth pads, carefully crafted bass guitar riffs, tuned and toned muscular drumming, burning acrobatic electric guitar solos, and two nearly indistinguishable but powerful lead singers singing postmodern angular lyrics that paint portraits in your mind ... HELLO AGAIN! Now hear this: "Hello Again," "Drive," "You Might Think," and "Magic."

How do you all feel about that new Cream Soda Dr. Pepper? No matter your answer, and we're not going to wait for you to give one, it doesn't matter because we're back with our regularly scheduled programming. Back with what you ask? Beck's 2008 LP Modern Guilt and we don't feel guilty about it. Ryan definitely missed the memo about this one and Paul smacks him upside the head with it. In a spiritual sense. Beck teams up with Danger Mouse on a - AHEM - modern classic. Call it one hell of a shot in the arm of 21st century paranoia. Feels as if each song is better than the last and also the next. Makes sense because it is Beck after all. Call a doctor, call a ghost, call this episode a smash win. Enjoy it. Now hear this: "Gamma Ray," "Chemtrails," and "Modern Guilt".

Surprise. Annabel and Suzannah are back again. Why, you ask? Because, they said so that's why. No, no, only kidding, they're back to discuss one of everyone's favorite things - summer songs. Much like in our Holiday Songs episode in 2019, we each compiled a list of our three favorite summer songs and created the ultimate Now Hear This Summer Jams 2020 Playlist. We road-tested this playlist and then drove right through it on this very funny episode. Before we give away any of the fun, press play and enjoy. Best enjoyed with an ice cold glass of your favorite beverage, smoked BBQ treats, the news closed and deleted on your phone, and oh wait, we're STILL waiting for those yams. Have something to say?

Trick question. If The Beatles were bigger than Jesus, were they bigger or smaller than Yeezus? Before you answer, consider listening to this high energy episode on Kanye West's My Beautiful Dark Twisted Fantasy from 2010. No two men should have all that power so the boys brought in Max Perenchio aka The Pelican Boy to chop it up about the writing, recording, and baffling story behind this album. Not interested in rap? Good news, the three of us are here to change your mind and open you up to the genre. Already a fan? Get ready to yell at a podcast that is absolutely not live. We spent four hours working out together and did several charitable deeds before recording this episode in a hotel room, so please pay it forward. Have you ever listened to a podcast about a pharaoh that put sissies in a sarcophagus? Now hear this: "Power," "All of the Lights," "Monster," and "Devil in a New Dress."

(SNARE DRUM) Baaaadlaaaaands! Do you enjoy jean jackets, well-worn Telecasters, New Jersey, old-fashioned blue collar grit, patriotism, and songs about broken dads or former high school heroes? Welcome back to Now Hear This where we jump - (SNARE DRUM) HUHf! BAAAAAAAAAADLANDS! - woah now, sorry, we cannot help ourselves this episode. Extraordinarily excited to walk you through Bruce Springsteen's 1978 Darkness on the Edge of Town, a classic from start to finish. Paul, a New Jersey native, walks Ryan through an album he somehow overlooked, and maybe you did too. As John Landau said, this one is a tone poem of apocalyptic grandeur, so please press play, grab your girl or guy, your muscle car, and ride your way into the ... (SNARE) BADLANDS!! Also, will you clean up your desk before you go? The Boss is on his way up. Now hear this: "Adam Raised a Cain," "Something in the Night," "Racing in the Street," and "Prove It All Night."

From New York to Los Ageless, from Sufjan Stevens to David Byrne, from Annie to St. Vincent, we're back with the very successful MASSEDUCTION album from 2017, and oh boy, this was a fun episode. Possibly one of society's top lead guitarists, songwriters, and artists, Anne Erin Clark pka St. Vincent turned in one hell of a wild electric clear chaos ride with this LP where she weaponizes the accoutrement of her monumental success with wit and ennui. Bonus alert, this episode operates almost as a mini-Wikipedia of the 2000-2020 music scene because context. That's right folks, we like new music too, but you already knew that, right? Will we change your mind on St. Vincent? Paul changed Ryan's, so maybe they'll change yours too. Then again, maybe you already love Annie, and we just talked past the sale. D'oh! Now hear this: "Masseduction," "Sugarboy," "Los Ageless," "Happy Birthday, Johnny."
