2024-01-26 03:29:53 +0000 UTCMissed opportunity to dive deep into Connan, the man never does interviews or promos. Incredible artist! Maybe next time :)

2024-01-23 01:37:04 +0000 UTCdoes Doug use a Roland MX-1? That thing was destined to add reverb to fart sound effects the second it left the production line

2024-01-20 20:58:12 +0000 UTCJohn Carrol Kirby makes some really beautiful music and is super underrated; even though he's put out 9 albums in the last 7 years. plus his work with Eddie Chacon! great booking Matt!

2024-01-19 20:37:14 +0000 UTCConnan Mockasin makes really beautiful music Cap’n! Please have the trinity listen to the Jassbusters album if at all possible, and I know they’ll want to have him back for a nice chat. Great episode as always ❤️

2024-01-19 19:41:29 +0000 UTCIf I can add somewhat of a contrasting opinion here, I really liked the new background and set design. Gives everything a fresh, bright feel. I really liked the shelves and trinkets, and how they highlight Doug and Vic’s tastes, interests, and show callbacks. I PARTICULARLY thought it was cool when the lights dimmed and you could just see a silhouette of the boys jamming out and grooving to the musical performance. That would be a cool thing to carry over to multiple performances. Anyway, thanks for always making me laugh!

2024-01-19 04:51:58 +0000 UTCIncredible vibes on this episode. Aparna fits in like one of the guys, and JCK’s rendition of one of my favorite tracks of his was so inspiring. Welcome back!
Brandon Martin
2024-01-19 04:38:39 +0000 UTCWhat was Naparna’s recommendation? Couldn’t quite figure out what words were said between my bad hearing and the supposed bad title
Jesse Hurley
2024-01-19 03:42:12 +0000 UTCThis is sincere P&L constructive criticism and I really appreciate it! Maybe down the road the wall color will change or the desk color will change, but it's really up to Tim :) Decorating for camera is indeed totally different than decorating a regular room, so lots of things will be adjusted in time I'm sure!

Josh Hunt
2024-01-18 22:24:27 +0000 UTCDon't get the 70s cruise bit. Is the gag that people are enjoying live music acts on a cruise they... paid to be on? Seemed like someone just making fun of something just because they don't personally like it.

2024-01-18 21:49:21 +0000 UTCWith P&L, some hopefully constructive criticism about the new studio. (I realize it's brand new and you're still dialing it in) The feeling seems to be anti-curtain now, but i think they looked nice, and lended themselves to a more high contrast environment where it was easier to see things. Ex: Doug and Vic in the background. There was just two or three colors behind each of them before, making them easier to see / sharper when the camera is primarily focused on Tim. The black on their desks helped with that too. They seemed blurry and washed out today from that vantage point with the more busy "window" behind them and the light wooden desks further brightening the scene. Maybe slap some paint on those white walls? Also, not quite sure what was going on here but it seemed like the camera on tim was uhh, maybe positioned a bit wonky (?) which makes the new screen appear crooked and is rather disorienting. Anywho, I have no idea what I'm doing. Just reportin' what my eyes see.
