  • The Other Side Listening Party
    Jun 5 2026

    Kousin Ray was under the gun to distribute some major spoons this week. But the Kousins found a suitable sub for him, a friend of the show, Stuart Hill. With Stuart comes the new solo record that he just released last month, called The Other Side. So, the group had a little listening party, but in “Storyteller’s” style, since the man who played all the instruments (save the drums) himself. It’s a great listen, both the album and this episode.

    Calls from Bruno from South Africa, Jem from Alabama, Jim from Irwin, and Ze German!

    You can find Stuart’s album only online. You can listen on all the major streaming services, buy copies of the songs from Apple and Amazon, and send positive vibes!

    Have you heard Stuart’s album before this?

  • The 40th Anniversary of “So”
    May 22 2026

    May 19, 2026, was the fortieth anniversary of Peter Gabriel’s So (1986). That album happens to be Kousin Tim’s (and one of Ze German’s) favorite album. Kousin Tim walked the other Kousins and the Asylum Inmates through the album track-by-track with some deep-dive producer notes kind of stuff, and stories he has collected over the years.

    Calls from Christy Kirk, Jim from Irwin, Bruno from Calm South Africa, Eugene B Sims of Wheeler’s Dog Podcast, Nick Provenzano from the “Bay,” and Uncle StevAie.

    What are your thoughts on Peter Gabriel’s So? Do you dig it? Could you do without it?

  • Album Gladiator Showdown – Night Ranger vs. Journey
    May 15 2026

    The whole gang was back together again for the first time in a month or so, and they didn’t come alone. Asylum Inmate, Jim from Irwin, was on the show as well. The battle talk had been picking up since JFI said he’d challenge Kousin Gary in a Gladiator battle to defend Night Ranger. So, to keep it fair, the albums chosen were Night Ranger’s Greatest Hits (1989), which JFI defended, vs. Journey’s Greatest Hits (1988).

    To reiterate the rules, the winner can either go first or defer their pick after a coin flip. The first selector chooses their “gladiator” or song for battle. After a short listen, the opponent chooses the song (or gladiator) to battle the round’s opening song. The other two Kousins then vote for the winner. The two pickers can also change their vote if they choose to. Whichever song has the most votes… wins. If there’s a tie, well, wait and see. Each combatant has two deferrals (outside the opening coin flip) they can use for the battle.

    How did it turn out? You know the deal, you have to listen.

    There was calls from Bruno from Sunny South Africa, Eugene B Sims from Wheeler’s Dog Podcast, Nick Provenzano from Northern California, and Jim from Irwin.

    Without picking an album, what do you think a good battle between songs from these compilations would be?
