Every once in a while a guitar pedal comes across our desks that is an absolute game changer. This is the case with the new Eventide H9 Effects Processor. It will come to no surprise to anyone who reads this blog that I loved this pedal. I am a huge fan of Eventide and the Eventide Space and Eventide...

This week’s podcast features the Gaming Flashback of Final Fantasy VI, which takes up a third of the podcast as Paul and Jordan enthuse about the Japanese roleplaying game at length – so much so, that some news items were skipped over due to running length. Jonah prepares for his trip to PAX East 2014 for the weekend. He...

Grandmas are funny when it comes to pot. I am not talking about ha-ha funny, we are taking weird funny. On 4/20 these grannies were shocked to find out it was National Marijuana Day. One of the funniest comments was “so today you get to smoke all the pot you want?” Obviously they have never seen the likes of...

We’ve seen so many of these lists, but why should all the other bloggers get the glory? I’ll admit to only being a casual Smash Brothers fan, but as new characters get introduced, much like many others, I can’t help but think about the fighters I would love to see included on the roster.

Game of Thrones came back with a bang in season 4, didn’t it? Personal life has forced me to consider both of the first two episodes back to back, and they were mighty entertaining.

The Psycho Merchants eponymous CD hits hard with the 3:24 blasts of "Stop Pushin' it's a blend of Joe Walsh meets Black Sabbath - think "Turn to Stone" - a Walsh tune that would fit perfectly within this power trio's non-stop sonic assault. Drummer/lead vocalist Kevin Hupp has a sound that ranges from Ozzy to Jim Peterik of the...

For the return of Mad Men on April 13th, the folks at Jim Beam have stacked up one of their personal heroes, Jim Beam Black, against Mad Men’s leading Man, Don Draper. The similarities are striking and pretty entertaining as well. Jim Beam Black is a no brainer for tonight's premiere, the whiskey is smooth and complex, just like...

Paul wasn’t able to make it for this podcast thanks to a hospital trip due to back pains, but Jordan and Jonah get into it a little themselves. They also avoid the predictable April Fool’s gags since even though the episode was recorded April 1, it wasn’t going to air until 2 days later. This week’s Gaming Flashback is...

Prolific front woman Karen Debiasse of the veteran group Girl On Top has issued two new MP3s that are simply terrific. IN A MOMENT clocks in at 3:05 and could be the backing tracks to a Marilyn Manson or Alice Cooper track. Debiasse's smooth vocal treads lightly over husband Dave's elegant guitar lines. Girl On Top has received airplay...
