Spotify Fumbled, We Rewind: Slug (Atmosphere) & Mr. Dibbs in a Legendary DOD45 Deep Dive!

DOD45 Rewind: Slug (Atmosphere) & Mr. Dibbs in an Epic 4.5-Hour Ride (Now Re-Released!) Originally aired on May 30, 2021, re-edited and celebrated as a “Be Kind Please Rewind” episode on January 11, 2023, and now re-released after a ridiculous move by Spotify (terminating The DOD45 Show podcast account 🤦), this episode is back and better than ever! Repackaged with unseen footage, revamped graphics, and new intros/outros, it’s a wild trip down memory lane you won’t want to miss. 🎙️ The DOD45 Show, hosted by Tai of ArtByTai, takes us back to its early days, when the show was still finding its rhythm. The pacing is raw, the mic quality imperfect, and the graphics nonexistent—but what it lacks in polish, it more than makes up for in passion, chaos, and creativity. This was technically Season 1, Episode 4, featuring hip-hop heavyweights Slug (of Atmosphere and co-founder of Rhymesayers) and Mr. Dibbs (legendary DJ/producer). While the original episode was trimmed to 1.5 hours, this re-release stretches to 2.5 hours, packed with new edits, hilarious tangents, and relevant updates. Yes, there’s still an hour and a half left on the cutting room floor, but trust us—this version keeps the best of the best, with a focus on laughs, surprises, and off-the-rails moments. Episode Highlights 🎨 Live Art with Tai: Tai sketches a Turkey Vulture and a Ponycorn while Slug and Dibbs bring the banter. 🎧 Conversations That Go Everywhere: Mr. Dibbs’ circuit-bent toys Slug’s first concert story (UTFO at First Avenue) Favorite record shops 🛒 A debate over WKRP in Cincinnati vs. Night Court Black Thought on Fallon and why the word "shit" made waves in the 1986 Transformers movie Dibbs’ journey healing his liver through juicing 🥤 Scribble Jam and Soundset—will they ever return? Nicolas Cage, head tattoos, and Batman debates. 🤔 Sophie's Choice Madness: A whirlwind of impossible decisions: Lamb of God vs. God Loves Ugly Prince vs. Prince Paul WKRP vs. Night Court Rodney-O vs. Type O And so many more hilarious face-offs! Why Watch This Episode? It’s raw, unfiltered, and full of the kind of genuine moments that defined The DOD45 Show’s early days. Whether you’re here for laughs, hip-hop insights, or Tai’s unique art process, this episode captures the spirit of a podcast just finding its voice—and the lifelong connections it’s built along the way.
