Summary

This week's Indiecast marks a special milestone: the 100th episode! Indiecast officially launched in August of 2020, and even though the show started in the middle of a lockdown with literally nothing to talk about, they made it to 100 Indiecast episodes nonetheless. To celebrate, Steven and Ian are ranking their favorite Indiecast moments from the past two years (20:49).

In terms of banter this week, there were a few music stories that Indiecast would be remiss not to mention. The first is about Taylor Swift and her carbon footprint. Apparently, Swift's private jet has had crazy high C02 emissions this year (3:57). Her team has responded to the claims, but that hasn't stopped the internet from running wild with memes. In other news, Beyonce's latest album Renaissance has racked up some controversy, including an offensive lyric which has since been removed (8:15).

Of course, even the 100th episode had to have a Recommendation Corner (59:24). This week, Ian has a list of recommendations which include new music from Peel Dream Magazine, Spielbergs, and Young Jesus, as well as chaotic moments from Sound And Fury Festival which can be found on YouTube. Meanwhile, Steven gives Philly band 2nd Grade their flowers on the heels of their new single "Strung Out On You."

New episodes of Indiecast drop every Friday. Listen to Episode 100 below and subscribe wherever you get your podcasts.

So, I don't think I'm speaking with hyperbole when I say that having a indie rock podcast launch in August, I think, 20, and having it lasts nearly two years, like a hundred episodes with like no guests.

0:49.8

And also the fact that we go like several months without a good album being released, I think this is like one of the greatest accomplishments in music journalism over the past two

years. Like we should we should do like what they do at the Oscars. Like you know at the end

The suburbs. It was a 10-year anniversary celebration of the suburbs, like this bucolic, warm,

nostalgic album when they're like, and it was not just peak pandemic, but it was also

1:46.7

like peak of all the protesting going on. We were leading up to an election. I had a lot of

doubts as to whether like, hey, is this a good time to do an indie rock podcast? But here we are
