  • True Fables Of Jason Narducy
    Feb 14 2025
    Jason Narducy is living his musical dream. He plays songs with the artists that helped frame his musical taste. It all started at the tender age of ten, playing in his punk band, Verböten. This year, he will tour with Michael Shannon to perform R.E.M.'s 'Fables of the Reconstruction' and more. It will be followed immediately by a tour playing alongside Bob Mould to support his latest album, Here We Go Crazy. You can also catch Jason performing with Superchunk and Sunny Day Real Estate, and last year, he reunited with Verböten. Somehow we caught him in a rare spot, at his home in Evanston, to talk with us about his true fables of life on the road with his musical heroes. Learn more about your ad choices.

  • The KROQ 1988 Countdown With Craig Rosen
    Jan 31 2025
    Friend of the show, Craig Rosen, joins us for a record-setting fifth time. On this occasion, we look at songs 90 to 81 on the 1988 KROQ year-end chart. What do we learn? Craig's English teacher embarrassed him in the high school halls, he is still freaked out just by thinking of The Exorcist display at a local theatre, and as always, all roads lead to REM. Of course there's also great 80s music to discuss. Time may have forgotten some of these songs, but not us! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
