90. Neil Young: After the Gold Rush (1970)

Rolling Stone named this week's episode the "Ayer's Jordan" of podcasts as the guys cover After the Gold Rush, proving once again that Beck Did it Better is the best podcast about Neil Young.

 

But before the Gold Rush, Rob and the co-hosts share some stories that will surely cause you to experience an Enviornmentalisom! First Aaron makes this the best coffee podcast to listen to into 2022 when he talks about new coffee day, which is sure to give you good vibes. Matt asks, what's that smell as he boards a plane for another segment of Flight Tonight! Russ shares his experience at a gut wrenching Timberwolves game. If you're one of the adults clapping thundersticks at the game, we don't need you, but please keep downloading. Then Rob updates the audience on the ice cream developments in his life and how he never makes charitable contributions.

 

Then the content on the podcast finally rises above a dull surface at (42:00) when we talk about Neil Young's socially conscious album, After the Gold Rush. We discuss D modal guitar tuning, the best vibraphone songs, and how the album was inspired by a screenplay written by some dude on Quantum Leap. This does make us the best, and only, Quantum Leap podcast.

Please mention feet if you do review the show. If we can get "ROSIE LOVES FEET" to be something that is searchable online, I feel like this will all be worth it. 

 

Next week, the guys are taking the podcast on the road to the Jersey Shore, where we'll gym, tan, laundry and act like we're the best Bruce Springsteen podcast when we cover Darkness on the Edge of Town.
