Summary

This week the Bayers sit down with Guerilla Toss vocalist Kassie Carlson to learn all about what it was like growing up on Cape Cod. From dumpster diving for Cape Cod chips at the factory to steering clear of whatever is happening over at Nantucket Nectars HQ, we learn all about what the locals think of the "Upstreamers" who visit every summer. We also discuss whale watching, touring with indie-rock legend Stephen Malkmus (Pavement) and Smashmouth/Smashbox. For our topic, we discuss the soothing sounds of the radio host Delilah and the way she lulled us into an adult-contemporary cocoon as kids. (Also is there a Guerilla Toss/Kenny G collab in the works?) Finally we play a round of LEGIT MOAN OR UNNECESSARY GROAN where we discuss if radio DJs should talk over the beginning of songs, the prevalence of the phrase "you know?" and airplane/movie etiquette for kids and their parents. Don't forget to check out Guerilla Toss' new album "You're Weird Now," which comes out this Friday Sept 12th on Sub Pop Records. That much we do know!
