Reality Check | feat. Stevie Wonder, Beach House, Crowded House, Lou Reed + more

Episode 072: We are pulling back the curtain on the grand illusions of life this week, delivering a heavy dose of reality to all those polished, idealized dreams we hold onto. We begin with the shimmering, melancholic haze of Beach House, before facing the sobering resignation of Jim Lindberg. We then pivot to the gritty frustration of Middle Class Rut, transition into the poignant social commentary of Stevie Wonder, and drift into the deceptively serene, bittersweet piano balladry of Lou Reed. We close out our set by letting Crowded House remind us exactly why even our most beautiful dreams are eventually forced to reconcile with the stark, unvarnished truth. It’s a six-track exploration of disillusionment, the sobering light of day, and the messy reality of what happens when the fantasy fades.   Apple Podcasts Instagram Spotify Playlist Official Site
