2020-08-12 14:24:56 +0000 UTCWhat MN artists would you recommend to non-Minnesotans? Bonus points if you go deeper than Prince, Hüsker Dü, and The Replacements.

2020-08-12 04:48:09 +0000 UTCFirst of all - awesome that Charch is on the show. Second, you couldn't have picked a better Yo La Tengo album. This might be one of the greatest albums ever recorded, and it will always remind me of fall. Beyond the obvious track title "Autumn Sweater", the entire album has an eerie yet simultaneously comforting vibe that just seems to match the fall season so well. As a general Yo La Tengo question, what are your thoughts about the band's 2010 Reinventing the Wheel tour where they used a wheel of fortune to determine which setlist they'd play on a given night? One of the selections was "Spinner's Choice" in which the audience member chose Sitcom Theatre, which resulted in the band returning with scripts and acting out the entire "Chinese Restaurant" episode of Seinfeld for 22 minutes.
2020-08-12 03:03:59 +0000 UTCHey y'all. In that new announcement for the Suicide Squad game, do you think there's any chance that isn't Superman? His face looks unnaturally veiny. Maybe it's actually Bizarro? Thanks crew, love the show!
