Steven and Ian begin with a quick tangent about the intersection of conservative newspaper columnists and music podcasts, and whether it will ever happen on Indiecast. They also do a Sportscast on the failing Philadelphia Eagles and Steven’s revived hatred of the Chicago Bears. Then they pivot to a conversation about year-end albums lists, and what they say about the prevailing trends of 2025. After that, they check out the just-announced Bonnaroo lineup and do a “yay or nay” on Nick Cave.
In Recommendation Corner, Ian talks about LA indie-sleazers The Hellp and Steven stumps for the Australian improv trio The Necks.
