S03 E21: Three's Company
To sell you this episode, we only need two words: Tara Tran! Enjoy! Our guest did not provide us with a picture, so the closest we have is this image of the Tara St. Train Station in Ireland.

S03 E19: Gearing Up
Preparation is everything. This week, in anticipation of a certain special guest visiting soon, we're actually taking on some more academic subjects, between regular segments on popular culture. It makes, we hope, for a well-rounded experience, especially with Alissa's musical interjections. Speaking of which, its also time to bring back a lovely segment idea. *PLEASED TO MEET YOU Back in the early 2000s I still sought out Much Music, specifically The New Music and The Wedge, as my primary sou...

S03 E18: Cultured
You might be excused for expecting some urban planning talk this week, given that we both studied in that field and pretty much are massive nerds. However, last week's ranting ignited something within us that hasn't quite burned away yet. So here's another hour or so of cultural analysis by a still sharp but slightly less incensed duo. Enjoy! This episode is like to a jet of ranch dressing to the face. In a good way. PLAYLIST Rilo Kiley - Spectacular Views The Cure - Just Like Heaven Cold War ...

S03 E17: Rants
This week, we return to the grand tradition we've developed organically over three seasons: namely, spending an inordinate amount of time talking without any real agenda. Strangely, it always seems to work out remarkably well... enjoy! This week's random mumbling has taken the form of some near-Mercer-level ranting.

S03 E16: Ch-ch-ch-changes
We've made some slight additions to the line-up this week as well as a rather refreshing website redo. Nothing drastic, but an attempt to liven things up a bit. Whetted? Enjoy! Try to guess which one Tyler particularly dislikes PLAYLIST The Temptations - Get Ready The Guess Who - She's Come Undone Portugal the Man - Telling Tellers Tell Me Port O'Brien - In Vino Veritas Pleased to Meet You: Broken Social Scene - Anthems for a Seventeen Year Old Girl Jenny Lewis - Pretty Bird LINKS Montreal 201...

S03 E15:
Nothing tastes better than ill-gotten, high-end poutine. The story behind the picture is part of this week's episode, as is talk on Harper, London, Mila Kunis, barbecue and other topics so disparate it's tough to unite under one theme. But don't worry; we're always more charming when we're aimless. Enjoy!

S03 E13: Jetlag
What? Late July? Really? Oh... well, in Paris, podcasts don't air until weeks after they are recorded. Very continental... very sophisticated. Actually, it's been a busy time for us and we've just gotten around to editing a session done while Tyler was in Paris. The wait was worth it, though. Why, you can almost smell the Seine in this week's episode. And don't fear, the big #100 is coming up very soon. If you've got any comments or suggestions, let us know what you'd like to hear.

S03 E12: Domo in the City
As summer bursts onto the scene, people are packing their bags and hitting the road. Some leave the city to head to the country; others do the opposite; others still stay put and rediscover the place they call home. As part of a summertime arc, this week's episode focuses on songs about the city. Given our backgrounds, you can imagine how hard it was to collect the music... well, to cut down the list. Enjoy! This is Domo. Lover of cities. Real class act. Fun fact: Alissa is one of seventeen pe...
