Vesco Island Podcast Episode 4

This week, we try and dissect just what exactly went wrong with Episode 3, pledge to occasionally get back to the stereotypically generally acceptable discussions of sports and politics, and then engage in a rambling discussion about the Sam Hurd bust, the NFL in general and everybody's favorite angel, Tim Tebow. Sports! In the second half we dissect the recently released Cameron Crowe documentary Pearl Jam Twenty. And music! Chris' song pick this week is "So American" by Portugal, The Man and Dave's is "Lonely Boy" by The Black Keys.

Vesco Island Podcast Episode 3

This week, we overcome a number of technical problems, bemoan our lack of things to talk about and bitch about Christmas before finally settling in to discuss the death of comedian Patrice O'Neal, the world of standup comedy in general and the departure of bassist Shonna Tucker from the Drive-By Truckers. Dave's song selection is "Queen of the Underworld" by Jesse Malin and Chris' is "Grateful For Christmas" by Hayes Carll. Also, here's a YouTube link to the O&A segment with the discussion of "Black Ghosts" that Dave references in the show: http://www.youtube.com/watch?
