Recorded on the spookiest day of the year. We talk about we all wear a mask, Reed hurt his eye, it's giving double click, full stop, we must end the use of the penny, we listen to a few voicemails, uh oh the hard drive, Gene Simmons, give me the money Lebowski, Stephen King, drummers that are dead, and we do 20 minutes on Tom Hanks and stick bags.

We talk to Ben Barter from his new home studio in LA about how he’s from New Zealand, building his space, learning to record, playing a lot of electronic triggers with Lorde, his preference is neither, it would be sick to not even have a crash, bleeding from his head during a show, how he got the Lorde gig, Espresso Jazz, Mr. Bean, buying vintage gear, we deep on nostalgia and how it relates to house music, and we do some monitor mix talk.

Our luckiest episode! We talk about all drum parts are the same, Nate has technical difficulties, we go deep on the kick pattern, wood snares are stupid, touring with a sewing machine, we answer some questions, and it gets a little chippy when we talk about the best records from a few bands, and what bands are underrated.

We talk to Josh Eppard from Coheed and Cambria about how they got signed, the only thing that matters is the perfect demo, Woodstock ‘94, being the odd man out in their scene, me and the guys over here at the office, hearing Thursday for the first time, his journey to get sober and re-join the band, he’s one Oreo Pie away from saying “f*ck it,” playing open-handed and tilting his cymbals.

We do a half hour on The Killers, we listen to some voicemails, we talk about throne position and the snare throw-off, the companies would prefer you do that actually, Ben must be denied access to the sound effects, they played Degausser twice, cymbal shields, and the four of us have never hung out.

We talk to James from his home studio in Los Angeles about making a cameo in Twisters, the biggest camera he’s ever seen, the country shuffle played fast but quiet, taking a call on his Razor flip phone, being from Oklahoma, recording at home, Kaboom (oops!), he defends Bob Dylan, Jim Keltner, and James is a blues dad.
