    Karma in Flight (Fall Out Boy and Coastal Karma Brewing)
    Sep 6 2024

    Barry and Abigail discuss Infinity on High by Fall Out Boy and sample Karma Hoptra IPA, Professor Pickles Sour Ale, Dark Waters Sour, and Parlay Baltic Porter from Coastal Karma Brewing in Lake Park, Florida.

    Special thanks to Charles Chase for sitting down with us to discuss the history of the brewery!

    Check out the setlist of the Fall Out Boy concert that Abigail attended in Jacksonville, Florida!

    Abigail briefly described Fall Out Boy’s involvement in Invisible Children, Inc.’s KONY 2012 movement via their music video for I'm Like a Lawyer with the Way I'm Always Trying to Get You Off (Me & You). She learned this weird detail from Ashley Norton’s The Insanity of KONY 2012.

    Barry entered Don’t You Know Who I Think I Am? into the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music with a comparison to Come Out and Play by The Offspring.

    Up next… Cloud Eleven by Cloud Eleven (watch Barry’s iconic video that utilizes the opening track)

    Jingles are by our friend Pete Coe.

    Catching a Groove (Steve & Teresa and Honolulu Beerworks)
    Aug 23 2024
    Barry and Abigail discuss Catching a Wave by Steve & Teresa and sample Kewalo’s Cream Ale, CoCoWeizen, and Hop Island from Honolulu Beerworks in Honolulu, Hawaii. After a failed Hawaiian music scouting mission involving a fabulous live performance - but no CDs to take home! - by John Mahi, Barry purchased this album at Aloha Got Soul, a Honolulu-based record label championing new music and rare reissues from Hawaii! While there, he also purchased Lead Me to the Garden by ʻĀina, From These Shores (various artists), Lemuria by Lemuria, and BLUE by Dae Hon. We previously reviewed Maui Brewing Co. in Kihei, Hawaii, in our episode Hi (Peter Gabriel & Maui Brewing Co.). Abigail and Barry both relied heavily on Huapala Hawaiian Music and Hula Archives for background research and lyrics on this album! Read the lyrics, translations, and other background information for these songs! Aloha ʻIa ʻO Waiʻanae Nani Waiʻaleʻale ʻAuhea ʻOe ʻAlekoki South Sea Sadie / My Little Grass Shack Kahoʻolawe Song Tahauala Wai O Ke Aniani Read more about banana flavoring and Gros Michel bananas! The opening of ‘Alekoki reminded Abigail of Jack Johnson music. This led to a discussion of slack-key guitar. Read more! The appearance of the humuhumunukunukuapua'a in My Little Grass Shack took Abigail back in time to the first time she ever heard of the humuhumunukunukuapua'a, in the song HUMUHUMUNUKUNUKUAPUA’A from the High School Musical 2 Original Soundtrack. We played a sample of Maile Lau Li’i Li’i by Bob Brozman and Ledward Kaapana. Check out Aloha Got Soul on Bandcamp to purchase digital copies of their albums!

    Jul 26 2024
    Barry, Abigail, and special guest Dinos Korominas discuss Dinos’ Jukebox submission, Professional Rapper by Lil Dicky, and sample Failsafe, Banana Split Fusion, Luminous, and Matterhorn from Woven Water Brewing Company in Tampa, Florida. Dinos recommended the music video for Lemme Freak. Molly features Brendon Urie of Panic at the Disco. Listen to our recent Panic! At the Disco album review, A Crowler You Can't Pour Out (Panic at The Disco & Disco Witch)! Barry loves the music video for this song! Bruh… reminded Abigail of Live at Union Square, November 1986 - Live by DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince. Listen to our review of that album, Jukebox: He’s the Drinker, We’re the Talkers (DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince and Evil Genius Beer Company). Abigail first saw Hannibal Buress’ comedy on @midnight, a comedy panel game show that focused on the Internet’s reactions to current events. Barry correctly recalled that a viral joke from one of Buress’ comedy sets started the chain of events that eventually led to Bill Cosby’s downfall. Read more about that story and listen to Buress’ reaction to the events. Watch the music video for $ave Dat Money (feat. Fetty Wap & Rich Homie Quan).

    Cans (k.d. lang and Cigar City Brewing)
    Jul 12 2024
    Barry and Abigail discuss Drag by k.d. lang and sample Theoretical Jam, Maduro Brown Ale, and Fancy Papers™ from Cigar City Brewing in Tampa, Florida. Listen to the original versions of the songs that k.d. lang covered on this album! Barry compared the ominous-sounding outro of Don’t Smoke In Bed to Goldfinger by Shirley Bassey. We played a bit of The Hollies’ version (in Barry’s eyes, the definitive version) of The Air That I Breathe. We discussed in depth the lyrics of Steve Miller Band’s The Joker, eventually going on a tangent that led to Clap For the Wolfman by The Guess Who and The Letter by The Medallions. Abigail compared k.d. lang’s vocal performance in Your Smoke Screen to Shana Cleveland’s performance on Manzanita. Barry compared the song to Comfortably Numb by Pink Floyd. Congratulations to Jeff “Jafo” Shettler! At time of episode release, his bonus episode, Bonus: Pink Floyd Leftovers (Pink Floyd and brewLAB Leftovers) is our most listened-to episode of all time. We discussed the incredible backstory of Till the Heart Caves In, which is a “cover” of a Roy Orbison song that was never recorded. lang and Orbison had a previous connection as lang performed in Roy Orbison & Friends - A Black and White Night in 1988. Read more about the special! We believe that Jane Siberry wrote Hain’t It Funny specifically for k.d. lang. On Siberry’s album, “Hain’t It Funny” is preceded by k.d. lang, a series of recorded voicemails between Siberry and lang.

Barry, Abigail, and guest Todd Sider (Abigail’s uncle and Barry’s brother-in-law) discuss Todd’s Jukebox submission, Pretenders by The Pretenders, and sample Harvester, Undaunted, Dr. Jekyll Low Cal Hazy IPA, and Mr. Hyde High Cal Imperial IPA from Chapman’s Brewing Company in Angola, Indiana. Abigail's only knowledge of The Pretenders prior to reviewing this album was their Christmas song 2000 Miles. Other woman-led punk rock bands of this era mentioned were Pat Benatar, Heart, and Blondie. Try listening to Eminence Front by The Who or Where’s the Orchestra by Billy Joel with only one headphone in! This album includes a cover of Stop Your Sobbing, originally by The Kinks.

    Jun 14 2024
    Barry and Abigail and special guests Matty and Maddie Carlson discuss Manzanita by Shana Cleveland and sample La Playita and El Farito from The Tank Brewing Co. in Miami, Florida. With this appearance, Matt, who literally just founded our five-timers’ club, is the inaugural member of our six-timers’ club. Barry called him the Larry "Bud" Melman of Pops on Hops. This episode came out of Matt’s interview of Maddie on her favorite albums of 2023. He also interviewed fellow Substacker Kevin Alexander on the same topic. Shana Cleveland is also in the surf rock band La Luz, who just released a new album! Watch Shana’s live performance in the KEXP studio. Matt educated us on the Mellotron! Abigail and Barry both entered Light on the Water into the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music: Abigail with a comparison to Baby Genius by Eels, and Barry with a comparison to Rain by Hans Zimmer. Abigail shouted out Hoplark, which brews nonalcoholic hop teas! Maddie used Gold Tower to talk about her interest in tarot. Read more about the tower card! Matt compared Ten Hour Drive Through West Coast Disaster to 9th & Hennepin by Tom Waits. Though we didn’t discuss it in this recording, Matt is one of the most prolific men we know. He is a member of Harborcoat, The Stick Arounds, and The Pantones, in addition to touring as a solo act. In fact, Matty is probably coming to a city near you! Check out his tour dates! Abigail helped to host one of his house shows last summer, and it was an incredible evening. Matt also posts daily on his Substack, What Am I Making, which also has a podcast component that we have appeared on! Up next… Drag by k.d. lang Jingles are by our friend Pete Coe.
