200: Stripped Down with DaDadoh

It’s time for another Stripped Down episode featuring one of my favorite 110 Podcast alums, Zachary Bernstein of The Bicycats. He played “Completely Missed the Urinal” a hilarious, wordy, unreleased tune about a men’s room crime scene and all the questions it raises. We also talked about some of the hurdles of booking shows, I confess to something I stole, shout outs all around, and Music Mayhem.

Iliad kept popping up in my algorithm after I featured Tripolar back in episode 199, and for good reason! They kept that hard-rockin’ energy going. They have a few too many listens, but are too good not to share. Let’s check out “Insecurity” off their 2024 album Slug.

I’m breaking all the rules for this one. I’ve been dealing with some health issues, so I’ve mostly been listening to comfort music. While rap is not my forte, I love Open Mike Eagle, and his brand new album, DOOMED!, quickly became favorite. Stream it everywhere, or better yet, buy it on Bandcamp, there are two Bandcamp Fridays left this year, 11/6 and 12/4. I’m featuring the opening track, “Out to Lunch,” enjoy!

It’s the first of my new bi-weekly episodes, try not to listen to it all in one sitting. I’m featuring “Trainwreck” by Minnesota’s own Good Morning Bedlam. It’s a song that sounds like my brain the last few weeks. Hope you dig it.

I’m back after a short break due to some construction that was going on at the house. I figured I’d ease everyone back into the show by sharing the EP I worked on this summer, Horseplay (inspired songs)! It was a project which took me on a roller coaster of emotions and I’m glad I stuck with it and it’s out in the world now. Then stick around afterward for some housekeeping announcements.

I took the show on the road for the big 200th episode, while it didn’t go exactly as planned, the universe still gave me what I asked for, an interview with a great artist in Arizona. DaDadoh was kind enough to sit in the car with me for an interview just minutes after meeting for the first time. We talked about his origins in Virginia, moving to Phoenix, musical influences, transitioning from rock to rap and back again, and more. We ended the interview with a pretty raw performance of his song “Erik Kartman.” Shoutouts: PHX Firebird Events | Lou Moon | Savannah Meadow | Jess Artist’s Links: Instagram | Bandcamp | YouTube | Merch Contact Me: Deefur E.Y.P. x 110 Pod Playlist, updated weekly by Ed of Expand Your Playlist for your listening pleasure.

Mogley, of Mogley and the Zoniez fame (episode 192), comes through once more with another great rec, TRIPOLAR. I’m featuring “Doctor,” the title track from their 2025 release Group Therapy. I loved the energy, the vocals, and they helped fill a void left by a band I had to boycott. Check ’em out!

This week I’m featuring “James and the Giant Peach” by George Washingtub thanks to a recommendation from Mogley and the Zoniez (episode 192). I was blown away by how spot-on the recommendation was, an immediate love at first listen. Take a listen and see if you can figure out why.

There are so many poophole loopholes in this week’s episode it might as well be called the Swiss cheese episode. I’ve mentioned this band so many times I figured it was only fair I dedicate an episode to the song that haunts my dreams, “Cocaine Hero” by the now disbanded The Rouge.

I recently lifted the band on recommendations, I’m trying to get away from the algorithm and have a more personal, organic connection to the artists I feature. Serf Ninjas comes courtesy of Rowland. I enjoyed all their stuff, really reminded me of The Bicycats (check them out if you haven’t, episode 28). It took me a while to settle on a song, in the end I landed on “Ozone” off their 2023 album, Strife (and Striiife).
