Hear Me Out Episode S3E03 – In Which Winston Gets Very, VERY Angry at a Hippie (feat. Langan Kingsley)

Get ready for some well-deserved righteous fury!

This week, we sit down with the delightful Langan Kingsley (UCB’s Beige, What I Did For Love, and Langan Dice Kingsley: The Dicewoman Cometh) to chat about 3 artists you might want to punch in the face regardless of your political affiliation. We discuss the disturbing difference between Claudio Sanchez’ biker appearance and his tiny mosquito voice, nihilistic Canadian hippies, and selling a drug-addled philanderer to millions of screaming 14-year-old girls. Because in the end, aren’t we all just signs? But instead of words written on us it’s faces and clothes. Think about it, myan!

Oh, and Winston gets SUPER angry.

Winston’s pick: Coheed & Cambria – A Favor House Atlantic
Alden’s pick: Five Man Electrical Band – Signs
Langan’s pick: Backstreet Boys – The Call

Hear Me Out, Episode 28 – Baby, You a Thong (feat. Brian Glidewell)

In perhaps our most aggressively dumb episode yet, we discuss songs in love with underwear, cars, songs, dumps, trucks, you know, a lot of things!

This week we’re joined by Chart Throb columnist and UCB comedian Brian Glidewell to discuss whether or not our musical pleasures should be considered guilty, even when they are vapid, inscrutable, silly, twangy or evoke the image of a silver-haired one-hit-wonder being shot out of a cannon into a giant butt. Plus, Journey and a pop-country song we can mostly agree on! Any way you want this episode, that’s the way you need it. Whatever the hell that means.

Winston’s pick: Sisqo – Thong Song
Alden’s pick: Journey – Any Way You Want It
Brian’s pick: Florida-Georgia Line – Cruise
