Episode 83 - 2020 Thanksgiving Special

2020 has been garbage. Poop. Awful and filled with daily horrors. As we near the end of 2020, things are starting to look up a little bit, right? Biden won the US Presidency, a vaccine is coming for covid 19 and it is finally, finally the holidays. We made it. Thanksgiving is traditionally the start of the “holiday season”, though Halloween starts the festivities as far as I’m concerned. Can we just have Halloween once a month? I digress. This episode is a recipe for what makes up a typical Bobcast. An amazing ghost/paranormal encounter-type story from Ivy of the Ghoul’s Trip Blog and Creepin’ It Real podcast, a round of San Diego music trivia with the fine fellows of the Palapalooza podcast and lastly, a tale of revenge against the person that might be the worst person in music today - Morrissey. Worst person, best songs? Such a love/hate thing with me and Morrissey. A new feature to the Bobcast is in this one, Crusty’s Corner, a sort of Canadian connection that is so, so rad. Music of the episode provided by Houseghost, Hiding From Humans and Fun People. Grab a chair at the kid’s table with me, scoop up some stuffing and mashed potatoes and prepare for a FOOD FIGHT THANKSGIVING STYLE, via your favorite Bobcast. Support small business this holiday season, I’d like to add that. Here are some links to all the goodness in this episode!

Episode 53 - Morrissey Part Two - The Mozpire Strikes Back

Morrissey fascinates me. His music, starting with The Smiths and ending with his latest solo record - “I Am Not A Dog On A Chain” and the person himself. What is it about Morrissey that so many people love and/or love to hate? He’s lovely, controversial, talented, opinionated. The music, though, holy cow. Morrissey’s music has been a huge part of my life ever since the mid-1980’s and the purchase of “Meat Is Murder”. I can’t say how much this man’s music has meant to me over the years. However, in a strange twist of fate, “Bigmouth Strikes Again” is more than just a Smiths song, it seems to be Morrissey’s MO of the last several years. This episode focuses on the Morrissey “solo” years from 1988 up to now. We’ll be taking a fairly deep look at the records and who made them from 1988 to 2004, then a peek at the same from 2006 to the present. The very end covers “Morrissey Vs. the press”, which has been an ongoing thing since 1983 or so. Fun! The songs are by A Wilhelm Scream, The Phenomenauts and J Church and all tie into the subject at hand quite nicely. Here are some links to some great stuff -

Episode 45 - The Morrissey Trilogy Part One

What do you know about Morrissey? Singer of sad songs? Supporter of far-right causes? Handsome devil, or just a devil, period? Well, let’s start getting to the bottom of WHO this Morrissey person really is. This very first episode is part of a trilogy of episodes dealing with the wild, sad, wacky and confusing world of The Moz. Misery Mozzery, to his close friends. Does The Moz still have any freinds? We shall see. Three amazing Smiths cover songs grace this episode, as well - “Jeane” by The Slow Death, “Bigmouth…” by Squarecrow and “A Rush And A Push…” by Broadway Calls. Here are some links to stuff in this episode -
