**Never a bad time to revisit this gem of an episode from the great Ka Baird. New episodes are on the way - just needed a little break this summer!**

For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Ka Bard on the show. Their latest album, “Bearings: Soundtracks for the Bardos,” is something else. For all of the great music Ka’s made over the last 2+ decades, this one really stands out. After that, we try to figure out what it was about 1971 that went so damn hard! And we get into how the Muppets are a national treasure, the staying power of the Raincoats, Alice Coltrane’s all-time greatness, connecting with Joanna Newsom, MC Yallah’s infectious relentlessness, the impossibility of Can, Sinead O’Connor’s incredible power, and loads more!

**The weather is getting hotter, the ground is cracked and humming - a perfect time to revisit last year's episode with Andrew Weathers!**

For this episode of Songs of Our Lives, I invite Andrew Weathers on the show. Few people have been involved in more of my favorite albums over the last 10+ years, so I was thrilled to chat with him. Andrew’s a real one. We talk about a lot of pop punk, what made Roy Orbison finally click, the sweeter side of Bill Callahan, how improbable and seriously fun The Highwaymen are, American Analog Set’s all-time greatness, and loads more!
