This month Scot turns his sights to a couch he got in college for only five dollars. Why was this so huge and how can we get from pleasant memories about a couch to a quest to make music?

It's since AI music has become much more common that Scot now needs to be a little more self-sufficient in his music sourcing needs. To be more sure of it all being sometimes significantly flawed human creation.

Join Scot on a fraught-filled path that brings him in contact with a whip salesman, and two music podcasters from New York, Nick and Jon, who lend a hand with the quest this time.

How does a story about a Five Dollar Couch lead to a foolish musical quest and an 8 foot long leather whip? Listen in to find out.

This is an episode all about Superman, told through the lens of three different pieces of art. Scot picked 3 pieces that have been really special to him and others over the years, and talks about them and what makes them such good representations of the things that make Superman so special.

Scot looks at a page from All Star Superman by Grant Morrison and Frank Quitely, a page of Superman For All Seasons by Jeph Loeb and Tim Sale, and a Superman sketch by Chris Samnee.

Scot talks Superman through comics, also touching on movies and tv, and celebrates what version of Superman is so special to him. Then Scot interviews Liam Burke about the piece of Superman art that he owns, and Scot attempts to use his own x-ray vision to try and see what's at the center of this nearly 90 year old character.
