Ep. 101: Masayoshi Takanaka - Rainbow Goblins

Truly one of the most bonkers albums we have tackled on the show, this week the EarWax crew is taking on the genre of "Japanese funk-fusion rock based on an Italian children's picture book." That's right, Masayoshi Takanaka's "Rainbow Goblins"!A story about rainbow eating goblins with zero analogy attached at all, Takanaka makes maximalism razor sharp. Soaring guitar melodies backed with insanely tight grooves, all telling the story of seven color goblins who were just so hungry they HAD to invade paradise and eat the best rainbow of all time.Does Cody maybe side with the goblins? Well, you'll have to listen to find out exactly why he does! (Or does he?!)Shout-out to the Internet Archive, where you can find this album.The Budokan show? Heck yes we have it!

When No One's Watching DLT Entertainment UK Limited Matt Richardson and Matt Willis ARE guilty pleasures. One is Heat Magazine’s Weird Crush of the Year and the other is, well… in Busted. Listen to the podcast where celebrities (including Tom Fletcher, Emma Willis and the Derry Girls) confess the things they get up to when no one’s watching. Then it's up to the Matts to decide whether they should be forgiven or just feel really, really bad about themselves. Because if these two are judging you, you know you should have kept it to yourself. Picking Earwax out of other people’s ears, leaving angry notes on people’s cars, dressing up your dog… GOOD Bad? Or BAD bad? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information. Explicit Earwax Joshua Patrick This is our first episode of our podcast; We know its bad. Hopefully, we continue to create and improve over time. Explicit Miss Experience White Milo Starr Johnson With the best of intentions, the narrator of this poetic, seriocomic, three-part podcast, Miss Experience White, summons the Demon of White America, Tyrannosaurus Wonderbread, and his Pearly White Retinue. These magical efforts lead her to an uncomfortable moment of reckoning. Immersive sound design by Earwax Productions plunges the listener into the surrealism of the poetry. Written and performed by Milo Starr Johnson, produced by The Tea Club and Jim McKee. Featuring the music of It Thing, additional music by Omar Ledezma Jr., Dave Mihaly and Daniel Fabricant.
