Matt Sabbath 3:02:26 PM
Trans Am! Wacky dudes 👍
Jen Redlights (host) 3:02:48 PM
that there is the gospel truth!
Matt Sabbath 3:04:43 PM
That Trans Am/Fukn Champs collab was nutty too
Jen Redlights (host) 3:06:10 PM
i'm not sure i've heard that one! will take a listen
Matt Sabbath 3:06:24 PM
Got my coffee, weed, & RR, I'm in the ZONE
Matt Sabbath 3:07:18 PM
GIVE US THAT PUNK GOSPEL TRUTH SISTER JEN
Jen Redlights (host) 3:09:48 PM
hahhah Matt, you are SET UP
Matt Sabbath 3:09:49 PM
Not to be confused w/ The Fleshies
Jen Redlights (host) 3:09:55 PM
DEFINITELY
Matt Sabbath 3:11:20 PM
Jen any chance of hearing some RKL? No presh. Have had em on the brain.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:12:28 PM
Oh interesting! I haven't thought about that band in a long time! I have none on hand and question how much is playable on radio, but let me add to the delayed-request list!
Brian D 3:13:18 PM
Angst in me pants! Great cover
Matt Sabbath 3:13:21 PM
No prob! Such a tragic band. 3/5 of original band died from hard drugs.
Matt Sabbath 3:13:43 PM
Lol Brian D
Jen Redlights (host) 3:13:45 PM
@brian discovered these guys via a great Buzzcocks cover they do too!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:13:55 PM

Catalan language here sounds like looks like
Matt Sabbath 3:14:46 PM
Bar-the-lona
Jen Redlights (host) 3:14:55 PM
The x's make that pretty likely, agreed!
Brian D 3:17:04 PM
The title really is Angst in my Pants no joking Matt!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:18:24 PM
or Angst in My Paingst, as we pronounce it in my home
Brian D 3:18:28 PM
A great Sparks lp and title track. Couple songs from that were in the early Nic Cage flick Valley Girl
Matt Sabbath 3:19:31 PM
Valley Girl! 👍
Brian D 3:20:47 PM
Whatever happened to Deborah Foreman ? Valley Girl and My Chauffeur... couple others...
Brian D 3:23:29 PM
Good one here! Friday!
Bud Burroughs 3:23:49 PM
It's always a good time for Bob Mould!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:24:33 PM
I agree!
Matt Sabbath 3:24:33 PM
Bob's Black Sheets of Rain is so good
Jen Redlights (host) 3:25:27 PM
One of my life classics. His newer stuff also scratches the power pop itch super hard...maybe also because I'm more cheerful.
Rob from Maryland 🦅 3:25:52 PM
Rites of Spring, takes me back :-D
Jen Redlights (host) 3:31:56 PM
hi @rob - in all the good ways!
Jen Redlights (host) 3:32:01 PM

Brian D 3:37:57 PM
Big. Ol. Bass.
Matt Sabbath 3:38:29 PM
Oi Yard Act is good. Reminds me of pre-mainstream Chumbawamba a lil
Brian D 3:38:42 PM
Watt-worthy bass line here
Colin 3:39:06 PM
yard act was fun to see live
Matt Sabbath 3:39:14 PM
Double nickles on the dime
Brian D 3:39:31 PM
Gotta break out What Makes a Man Start Fires soon.
Jen Redlights (host) 3:39:37 PM
Yard Act was *amazing* live
Colin 3:40:04 PM

Brian D 3:40:05 PM
Double nickels coming in 3 months for me

Travis in TechniColor ado 4:02:05 PM
Did anyone figure out which DJ is on the tshirt? I'm wearing it at work today and a couple people thought it was Elvis. I think part of the hair may look like a sideburn
Matt Sabbath 4:02:46 PM
Nice Trav! 👊
Jen Redlights (host) 4:04:24 PM
hi @travis, I think someone told me but don't remember. Maybe it's EVERY ONE OF US???
Jen Redlights (host) 4:04:45 PM

Travis in TechniColor ado 4:05:28 PM
I think everyone feels the emotion sometimes
Travis in TechniColor ado 4:06:10 PM
I really felt like screaming into a mic all day at work yesterday
Matt Sabbath 4:07:01 PM
Double Cheese lol great name. Should play w/ Los Ang punk duo Free Refills
Jen Redlights (host) 4:07:02 PM
I hear this!!! it's a good shirt to wear under your work outfit if needed so you can feel a silent scream
Jen Redlights (host) 4:07:10 PM
@matt ha!
