As they attempt (and fail) to find the true meaning of Christmas, the fellows examine the multi-year process that went into the making of this unlikely holiday classic, debate which Pogues album marked their peak, and examine the life and legacy of the late, great Shane MacGowan.

As they try to keep their balance, the boyz marvel at the crisis turned opportunity that spawned not one but two top-ten hits (more than two decades apart, no less), ponder the origins of the death metal sound, and just try to stay out of the way of the roller derby jammers.

Chaise Longue - Wet Leg

10/30/2023
Send us a Text Message. In this episode, the lads kick back (all day long) on Wet Leg's "Chaise Longue." As they consume a six-pack of warm beer, they examine the Sprechgesang (speak-singing) approach to music and uncover a long history of talk-pop dating back to the 1960s. They also wrestle with life's bigger questions such as: how a chaise longue became a "lounge," the (in)significance of the Grammys, what makes a hit song stand the test of time, and whether or not your muffin is buttered. So quit sitting over there in your underwear, join TnT and get your degree!

Canon in D - Pachelbel

10/4/2023
Send us a Text Message. In this episode, the boyz go for baroque and bet the pot on Pachelbel's smash 1680 hit Canon in D. With the stakes high, the lads call the bluff of the artists who have incorporated Pachelbel's Canon into their music, up the ante on the idea of a collective unconscious, and are all-in on the importance of being in the right frame of mind to truly appreciate a work of art. With their cards on the table, Ty calls out Tom's pronunciation of "mauve," but Tom keeps his pokerface, knowing he has an ace-in-the-hole with his cup of Red Rose tea. Who rakes in the chips?

Hurt - Johnny Cash

7/11/2023
Send us a Text Message. In this episode the boys untangle the knots surrounding the unlikely pairing of Nine Inch Nails' Trent Reznor and Johnny Cash. Despite initial mistrust on both sides, the Reznor-penned "Hurt" takes on new depth and meaning sung through Cash's deep bass.

And if that weren't enough, Ozzy makes an appearance proving that anyone can fly high again with the right guidance and a bit of Calamine lotion!
