The show that talks about stuff on purpose has returned with a brand-new episode where we discuss an album that was released in 2019! Remember 2019? Those innocent days before a pandemic that broke the world and drove half of us insane. Orville Peck, everybody's favorite mask-wearing surrealist neo-country artist, released his debut album, Pony, back in 2019, and six years later we're finally talking about it. To be fair, TRAPPO didn't exist back in 2019, so discussing Pony when it was originally released was technically impossible. On this chilly December day, TRAPPO corrects that cosmic error as we have a lively discussion regarding the work of Orville Peck, Truman Capote's In Cold Blood, Mutant Disco, and a whole bunch of other stuff. Enjoy it if you can. (There are some annoying audio issues with this recording that cannot be corrected, so be warned)Listen to Orville Peck's Pony by CLICKING HEREWe appreciate feedback.

(This episode has been re-edited & re-uploaded because Spotify has chosen to ignore that Fair Use is a real thing, but I don't have a team of lawyers and limitless resources to spend in a protracted legal battle against a monolithic tech corporation, so instead I've been forced to capitulate to the wretched demands of this platform and cut this episode to ribbons. That's about all there is to it. Welcome to hell, kids!)On this very special episode of Good, Great or Garbage, Dustin & Ky take a closer look at nearly two dozen recent releases, some suggested by listeners, and others suggested by one another, in this rapid fire new music extravaganza! It's a veritable cornucopia of exciting new musical delights for your discerning palates! But that's not the best part, dear listeners. Your intrepid hosts deadlocked on six of these records, meaning they couldn't come to a unanimous decision as to whether or not these releases belonged in the illustrious TRAPPO Essentials Can(n)on. So that means it's up to you to cast the deciding votes! Just follow this link to the official poll and decide the fates of the six albums that didn't make the cut! The poll will remain open for the next two weeks and will close on October 7, which is plenty of time for you to listen to all the nominated works and make an informed decision. Links to all the nominated albums are on the blog, so get to work!This also marks the end of our first complete season, and that's a pretty big deal for us! We never thought we'd make it this far, and we certainly wouldn't have without your support, dear listeners! Thank you so much for all of your insightful comments and emails, which have really given us incentive to keep making the show that talks about stuff on purpose! And we need you to keep it up, so head on over to the official TRAPPO blog and leave us some more comments! Tell us what you think about the first season now that it's in the can, and leave us plenty of suggestions for future topics while you're there! And if you're feeling a bit more verbose, we always appreciate a friendly email! We're also on Instagram and Twitter for all you die-hard fans who just can't get enough TRAPPO !Thanks for listening, thanks for voting, and we'll see you for season two on October 7th!

(This episode has been re-edited & re-uploaded because Spotify doesn't understand what Fair Use is, so I guess we're all stuck with this butchered corpse of an episode. This is the best we can do, so try to enjoy what's left of this episode before the vultures come to pick its digital bones clean. What a joke.)It's the most wonderful time of the year, and your hosts Dustin & Ky are celebrating by curating the ultimate Christmas mixtape! Find out which songs make the cut, and which songs get the axe, in part one of this Holiday Mixtape Thunder Dome! And don't forget to stay tuned for the conclusion to this festive frivolity next week!Join the conversation by dropping by our official blog and leaving a comment, or you can send us an email if you'd like, and we may address your comments in a future episode! If you still can't get enough TRAPPO in your life, you're always welcome to find us on Instagram and Twitter if you'd like to harass us all across social media! Thanks for listening, and we'll see you for part two next week!

(This episode has been re-edited & re-uploaded because Spotify is absolute garbage and nobody there apparently understands what Fair Use is, since all the content included in this episode falls under Fair Use, this being an in-depth criticism of the 2021 album Florist, bit I guess none of that fucking matters in this awful fucking world, so try to enjoy this butchered fucking episode, because it's all we've fucking got left.)Good, Great or Garbage month continues here on the show that talks about stuff on purpose as we discuss 2021's self-titled fourth album from American indie folk band Florist. Is it good? Is it great? Is it... garbage? Here's the kicker, dear listener... you get to decide! That's right! We're leaving the final decision up to you, so visit the official TRAPPO blog and cast your vote today! The poll closes next Friday and the results will be shared at the beginning of our next episode, so get voting!Join the conversation! Tell us what you think about Florist from Florist on the aforementioned official TRAPPO blog, and while you're there, go ahead and tell us what you'd like to hear us discuss on future episodes of the show. We're always open to suggestions. And if you're feeling a bit more verbose (highly unlikely), you can always send us a lengthy email, which we always appreciate. And I suppose you could follow us on Instagram if that's what you're into.Thanks for listening, and be sure to join us next week as Good, Great or Garbage month marches on!
