    Dec 24 2024
    In this holiday episode, our friend Corin Tucker from Sleater-Kinney tells about the time she and bandmates Carrie Brownstein and Janet Weiss reluctantly abandoned their punk instincts and wrapped "gifts" for an uncomfortably phony photo shoot. Then host Alex Hofmann returns to a Christmas past when Radiohead flew him to their post-Pablo Honey holiday party in England...and Ed O'Brien had to nurse him back to health.

  • Quick Taps - You Con-Duit!

    Quick Taps - You Con-Duit!
    Dec 17 2024
    If you know the movie “This Is Spinal Tap,” you will certainly recall the moment Spinal Tap bassist Derek Smalls describes himself as the band conduit, "David and Nigel are like poets, you know, like Shelley or Byron, or people like that. The two totally distinct types of visionaries, it’s like fire and ice, and I feel my role in the band is to be kind of the middle of that, kind of like lukewarm water.” Well, on today’s Quick Tap, our guests tell us about the times they left puddles of themselves for a higher purpose. Songwriter Freedy Johnston introduces Lou Reed and Joey Ramone; author and rapscallion Scott Nathan recounts the time he connected Leonardo DiCaprio to a Martin Scorsese flick; and The Pulsars Dave Trumfio reminisces about how he got a rise out of Oasis frontman Liam Gallagher with rock legend Cynthia Plaster Caster.

    Quick Taps - I Hope We Passed The Audition

  • Quick Taps - Sexy or Sexist

    Quick Taps - Sexy or Sexist
    Nov 12 2024
    On today’s TMEP Show Quick Tap (short episodes with short stories for short attention spans) we hear stories from artists who just so happen to be female, about moments dealing with a-holes who just so happen to be male. Tyler Simone Molton from the band Lesibu Grand dishes on how often sound men ask her male bandmates how she likes her vocals...instead of just asking her; actress Dina Spybey Waters (“Six Feet Under” and “Just Like Heaven”) makes us cringe about the time she expressed concern to a producer about being objectified only to be objectified some more; and recording artist Kandle tells us her harrowing experience about nearly being kidnapped from behind the merchandise booth at her own gig. If someone can’t be safe behind a merch table, where can they???
