Maybe WE are the Empty Vessels? 🤔😉
This was great fun to be a part of.

I did another podcast with a fantastic team!

nicola and hattie are giving conrad a look

you are a treasure! thanks so much for listening! we really got into it. i love talking about these audios!

over the course of the baseball offseason, i have found myself more or less watching the "braves today" video podcast on youtube every day. finally went ahead and joined the substack, as this is both a podcast *and* a newsletter www.bravestoday.com?r=1mm3c&utm_...

i love the "dark eyes" look. it's sort of business casual

Another belting podcast with a lively discussion and robust critical debate on the latest @bigfinish.bsky.social boxset featuring Pee McGee, Zygons plus some other companions I’ve never heard of.

i also want to apologize to all our listeners, and especially joumana; i talked all over everyone on this podcast and just interrupted literally every single person. i can't stand that person on a podcast who won't shut up and it is always totally me!

you and me both!

this episode of the popular @trapone.bsky.social marks my 3rd anniversary of #doctorwho podcasting. so grateful to @quarkmcmalus.bsky.social for inviting me into such a bright and joyful community 3 years ago, and for continuing to bring me back for more

omg he's got tiny little leggies

The Brak After Dark T-shirt Brak’s got a secret and he is not being subtle about it. This Hazy colorway keeps things muted and wearable, while the clean chest hit puts Brak front and center in that classic Space Ghost energy.  D...

@daylightcurfew.bsky.social has a new Brak shirt, everybody!

Last Ride, by Joe Harvey-Whyte & Bobby Lee 10 track album

oh, i also *finally* picked up the latest from sheffield's own bobby lee and joe harvey-whyte. i don't know how this got totally past me last year. bobby lee's "origin myths" (2021) - 5 years old this week - is one of my top records this decade bobbyleeplaysitslow.bandcamp.com/album/last-r...

A brown penguin chick of some kind. It looks very much like a man in a suit. It is bedraggled and miserable

Made it to Friday but at what cost

if you are on the continent, please do yourself a favor and go see steve gunn when he passes through your town in april-may. one of the best guitarists and stellar live performers. so glad i got to see him in december here in raleigh

YouTube video by Wilco - Topic Summer Teeth

still can't believe i'm gonna see wilco in durham this july. shout out to my notre dame buddy geoff for getting me into them during the "summerteeth" era. the title track is an eternal fave. so evocative and i love the little bird noises www.youtube.com/watch?v=4ZVo...

it's a little bit funny, and in no way coincidental, i would guess, that gasoline was 2.77 a gallon before the primary elections, and shot up to 3.20 literally the day afterwards

i just voted gatwa 2 (new series 15)

@whorod.bsky.social
@paulcdunnesq.bsky.social

another excellent episode of the maran chess club podcast. it kept me occupied as i ran my 5k today. and while yes, the "once and future" series was largely forgettable, the 5/jenny story by james goss was a true standout

We discuss everything that makes this story stand out as impressively as it does, the many ways that the story is unique and why the instincts of the writer and producer were bang on.

The Life You Save, by Flock of Dimes 12 track album

and i am ALWAYS going to say that you should buy the latest - indeed every release - from @flockofdimes.bsky.social, out on @subpop.bsky.social. jenn is the best. i am seeing her four times in april! i just wish i could get to more of her shows 😭 flockofdimes.bandcamp.com/album/the-li...

We Are Together Again, by Bonnie "Prince" Billy 10 track album

there's a new bonnie prince billy that dropped today that i'm excited to listen to: bonnieprincebilly.bandcamp.com/album/we-are...

Solved By Walking, by Object Hours 7 track album

speaking of @3lobed.bsky.social, i could not be more excited for april's forthcoming debut for object hours, easily one of the best and most propulsive live bands in north carolina. this record is going to rule objecthours.bandcamp.com/album/solved...

Bill Nace Plays the 2 String Taishogoto, by Bill Nace 2 track album

if you're looking for something a bit more out there, that new bill nace, "plays the 2-string taishogoto," came out last weekend on @3lobed.bsky.social, just in time for the three lobed anniversary day party at duke coffeehouse threelobed.bandcamp.com/album/bill-n...

where were these? the leaf that crow is perched on looks quite tropical! my absolute fave of these is the white-breasted water hen, not least because it has the most fun name! do you have any more of that one?

holy shit, mark! these are terrific! @inaturalist.bsky.social naturalist says these are 1) grey heron, 2) large-billed crow, and 3) white-breasted water hen! we're going to get you into birds yet! i highly recommend the new sean bean bird podcast, "get birding." ep 4 just dropped this week

Coming soon…

Bluebird, by Rosenau & Sanborn 5 track album

do check out "bluebird"; it's gorgeous. hybrid of instruments and electronic bleeps and bloops. really comforting and immersive instrumental work rosenausanborn.bandcamp.com/album/bluebird

Two, by Rosenau & Sanborn 6 track album

happy bandcamp friday everyone! the next one isn't till may, so what are y'all getting? my top choice is the new rosenau and sanborn (out on 20 march), "two." their first release, "bluebird" (2019), is a real fave. rosenausanborn.bandcamp.com/album/two

I appreciate that! Thanks for listening, I know it took some strength of will on your part hahahahaha
