Words are hard. This song is excellent. I really like Speedy Ortiz. They seem to be getting quite a bit of attention. And good for them. Singer Sadie Dupuis lost her dad this past week though. So as much as I like this, it feels so sad to me and my heart goes out to her and her family. And to all of those, and you know who you are, who have lost parents recently. Or ever really. It’s a terrible thing to go through. Anyhow, it’s still a great song worth sharing, so here it is. Hang in there friends and strangers alike.

If you listen to the show with any regularity, you’re probably already familiar with my Stereolab obsession. Laure Briard’s new album, Revelation, has been a great way to scratch that itch lately, especially as we wind into springtime, AKA prime weirdo French pop weather
This is the age of open misogyny. Fortunately, Jean Smith knows what to say about it. Thank you Jean. Thank you David Lester. Thank you Mecca Normal.
Ok, so that’s pretty cool. But how about mecca normal in a canoe? wtf? I know. Very wonderful.
Comedy Minus One is releasing a new album from Aussie band TV Colours. You know they are not American by how they spell colour. You know they are good because they are on Comedy Minus One and because you can listen to the song below. Read more here.
This is a bit pop punky, but still fun enough.
One of my all time favorite songs.
