    We're back and we're discussing "Our Mother The Mountain," Townes Van Zandt's second studio album and probably his goofiest release. We hate ICE. We love BD Wong and Wayne's World.

    Nebraska 82
    Jan 8 2026

    We're joined by Louisville's own Patrick Ryan (aka Moe) for a deep dive into Nebraska 82, Bruce Springsteen's recently released multi-disc set covering demos, outtakes, Electric Nebraska, a new live recording, and a remastered version of the 1982 masterpiece. Also: riding the bus, Scatman John, and building empathy for your parents. I guess there's just a meanness in this world.
