327. LIVE from Dublin: Phew!

The following was recorded live in Dublin at the Laughter Lounge on May 22nd 2024. It is accompanied by the incredible Paul Prior on keys, and features fire-jumpers, jet skis, bad medical guidance, and a number one jam from Ireland's youth. Think you can stop we we do? I doubt it, we already recoded this one (although we did somehow lose the opening banter and part of the first song, so I guess someone DID stop PART of what we do.)See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

323. LIVE from the Bourbon Room: Mountain Do In Your Room

The following was recorded live at The Bourbon Room in Los Angeles, on May 5th 2024. It's got the whole Fam Band (Scott Passarella on keys, Brett Morris on guitar, and Dana Wickens on the stickens)! This one is a classic college tale of doubling down on rash decisions, math in the abstract, and a certain trademarked soft drink. If you don't like this one, you need to get your eyes checked.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

We're back and we're trying to figure out how many songs we can actually fit into this thing, and what those songs should be. Also, we get way into the sci-fi weeds. That's writing baby. Sorry about the birds. See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

319. LIVE from The Den Theater (Chicago): Electric Feels

The following was recorded live at The Den Theater in Chicago on February 29th 2024. It is accompanied by Sam Scheidler on Keys, and Chris Ditton on drums, both of whom are absolute kings and wizards. This one features a bunch of fish, a dance craze, and throwing a party for your dad. Thank you Chicago, you're OUR KIND OF TOWN!Note: Unfortunately the drums were not clearly recored to do technical difficulties. Also as you may have guessed by our release order, the live shows in Boston and Detroit were both entirely lost to technical glitches as well (so if you took a secret high quality recoding of either of those shows, let us know.) Apologies, but we had a wonderful time in both those cities, and we hope those who saw them live enjoyed our tales of a bunch of animals in a hot air balloon and Richard Nixon's ghost.

318. LIVE from City Winery (Atlanta): Cinderella Name Game

The following was recorded live at City Winery in Atlanta on February 27th 2024. It is accompanied once again by the ever brilliant Eric Gersen. This musical answers the question: "What's the full story behind that jump rope rhyme about cinderella and the snake and the doctors?" Put this one on the list of things Disney can sue us for. Thank you Atlanta for your warm welcome and your incredible rhythm. If we could do it again, we'd keep it all the same. Once upon a time...TECH NOTE: The recording had some technical difficulties during the first song, but they resolve as the episode continues.
