#34 - Revenge of the Lawn

Sean and Brandon discuss, in detail, Heems’ Nehru Jackets. Specific subjects covered include bad fans not mattering, similarities to Graduation Day and MLK, what Dap’s album may sound like and what could be simultaneously the least and most interesting verse on an album . Our chat is like a shark’s fin: deepish, truish.

Dap has a podcast with the equally excellent Julianne Escobedo Shepherd. Do the right thing and listen to its sole (so far!) episode.

#33 - The Horror at Camp Jellyjam

Sean and Karl reconvene with an all-raps episode, which uses comics criticism to explain why Stupid Hoe is amazing, logic to posit that rapper Lakutus is our podcast in human form and pure inspiration to realise that Rick Ross is essentially the Rap Game Katamari Damacy. Sean also out-rap-geniuses the rap genius people and highlights that a Suga Free/DJ Quik tv show is a NECESSARY. All day in your mouth.

Here’s that Tim Dog video karl references. It’s fucking great. 

Hey so this is pretty confused, even for us. When we come back we talk about Nobody by Suga Free and Dj Quik, a song we discussed a lot last year. Specifically them discussing Micheal McDonnell’s mustache on the set of the video. Then we talk about a solo mixtape by Heems from Das Racist called Nehru Jackets, which features, among many others, Lakutus. Then we talk about Lakutus. Sorry this is so garbled and confused, we hadn’t podcasted in a while and were sittiing in a ridiculous place. To make up for this, a podcast where Sean and Brandon Soderberg talk exclusively about Nehru Jackets for an hour and go in depth as best as possible goes up later this week. Just said I’d dip in to give you some guidance after hearing how all over the place we were in this bit. I trust you’re still on board.

On a recent recon mission to London, Sean sat down with the two most dangerous men in UK blog entertainment, Dom and Tuvshi, to talk Mongolian Stereotypes, KGB assassinations, Blog beef and the attraction of Dead Pooling. This is some of what happened.
