  3. 81. Homegrown

    We were gonna record this episode in person but New England weather pushed us into zoom once again, so apologies for the less than stellar audio quality. We all really loved Homegrown. We talk about it. We also spend a lot of the episode listening to Mike gush over The Banshees of Inshirin. Learn...

  4. 80: Colorado

    It's been a long minute, Youngsters, but we're back. And we're talkin' Colorado! We talk about the planet. We talk about Nils. Some new bits get created. Some old one's get archived. It's an episode. We missed you. We're happy to be back. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit...

  5. Paradox (part 2) w/ Daryl Hannah and Adam CK Vollick

    Hey Daryl! You're on the podcast! Starting this weekend (9/30/22) Paradox is officially available on the Neil Young Archives! And who better to spread the news than our old friend Adam CK Vollick and our new friend, the one and only Daryl Hannah! Huge, huge thanks to both Daryl and Adam for…

  6. 78. Tuscaloosa

    We're trying our best to not have this turn into a once-a-month podcast, I promise. So here we are a month later talking about Tuscaloosa! We get into the album. The song versions on it. Neil's funny and sometimes not funny intro banter. Danny Whitten gets brought up. We read some reviews. At…

    more
  7. 77. Songs For Judy / Roxy

    How's the business, Youngsters? It's been a minute! A few of them actually. But we're finally back and booming with some quality LMYY content - talking about ourselves and occasionally sprinkling in some Neil talk. And the Neil talk I speak of comes from two great live albums - Songs For Judy and...

  8. 76. Paradox

    You better believe Mike put on his best cowboy outfit for this one, while Luke and Russ chimed in from their twin outhouses. That's right. It's time to talk about Paradox, Youngsters. Daryl's behind the camera and Neil and the POTR boys are out front. We talk about our highlights from the movie.…

    more
  9. 75. The Visitor

    We're podcasters, by the way... Mike's back. Our chemistry is immediate and unflinching as we trudge into The Visitor. We have similar takes on the album as a whole, but certain songs speak louder than others. If anyone disagrees, lock 'em up. Pantheonpodcasts.com for more great music themed…

    more
  10. 74. Hitchhiker

    The jury is in: This is one hell of an album. Almost every review we found, and everyone we asked seems to have the same feeling - this is raw Neil doing what he does best and doing the hell out of it. Recorded in 76 but not released until 2017, this stripped down collection is some of the finest...

  11. 73. Peace Trail

    All the boys agree, this is a good album. it's Neil doing what he does best, and finding exactly the best people for the job to accompany and produce a solid record. It's Peace Trail. We talk about it's origins. The pipeline protests. We semi-worship Keltner a bit. We read some mixed Facebook...

  12. 72. Earth

    It's good to be back, baby. We're talking Earth today, but in true LMYY style - we're also talking Will Smith, Taylor Hawkins, WWIII and if Crazy Horse were muppets. We do eventually get into the album. We've got mixed feelings, but overall we leave with on a positive note! Pantheonpodcasts.com…

    more
  13. 71. Thin Lizzy - Thin Lizzy (w/ Will Martin)

    A Neil Young podcast walks into a pub and talks about Thin Lizzy... It's Saint Patrick's Day! So we're taking a quick break from Neil's catalogue and diving into some good old Irish rock n' roll - Thin Lizzy's first self titled album. You're probably asking yourself if a Neil Young podcast can…

    more
  14. 70. The Monsanto Years

    It's mind-blowing to me (Luke) how many people have missed this album, including myself. I don't know if it's because of the album title, or if it's because it's one of his later records, but after spending close to a month listening, it's nothing but a tragedy that I, and so many others, slept…

    more
  15. The Neil Hypothesis - w/ Derek Webb (Patreon Bonus Episode UNLOCKED)

    Very excited for today's episode because we got to talk to our old pal Derek Webb! Derek has been a fixture in the Nashville music scene for over two decades and according to Luke - he's a lot like Neil. We get into his favorite Neil albums, the songwriting process, his experience with record...

  16. 69. Storytone - Part Two (feat. Joel Desmarais-Racine)

    Joel's still with us as we wrap up our thoughts on Storytone. We go song by song and compare versions. Luke almost makes Mike quit with his careless commentary on blues music. We find out Neil might be Joel's dad. Honestly, the more I think about it the more I'm sure Neil is definitely Joel's…

    more
  17. Bonus Episode: Joe Rogan and the Spotify Situation

    I'm sure this will saturate our episodes for the weeks and probably months to come, but we felt like we had to do at least one episode specifically about what's going on right now. We give our opinions on Rogan, spotify and the whole situation here. Do we cover everything? No. But it's a start.…

    more
  18. 68. Storytone - Part One (feat. Joel Desmarais-Racine)

    Joel Desmarais-Racine (Don't Be Denied podcast, Neil Young Canadianposting) joins the boys all the way from Canada for this mammoth two-parter where we try and tackle every inch of Storytone! We discuss the making of the recordings. We get into our favorites and least favorites of the 3 versions...

  19. 67. A Letter Home

    We're back, baby! Delayed a week or two because Luke and Russ caught a little bit a 'rona, but now we're back and we're jumping right into A Letter Home! Mixed feelings right off the bat with this one. Mike comes in hot (he's back on the scotch...) and echoes our friend Joel's sentiment that it...

  20. 66. Christmas At The Ranch

    Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Youngsters! It's our Christmas spectacular! Santa shows up. The White Russians keep flowing. We try and talk about Ben Keith's Christmas At The Ranch but it's mostly just a beautiful chaotic mess of an episode. This episode gets ridiculous - even more than…

    more
  21. 65. Live at the Cellar Door

    Even though it wasn't released until 2013, we're heading back to the early 70's again with Live at the Cellar Door! An absolutely fantastic album, we get into why it wasn't included in the archives. We talk about our favorite tunes, as well as the placement of this release. Luke issues a formal...

  22. 64. Psychedelic Pill (w/ John Craigie)

    The Horse is back for a second time in 2012 to deliver one of - in most of our opinions - the finest albums they've ever made. It's Psychedelic Pill! Our pal John Craigie joins us once again and we dive into each song. We fawn over Ramada Inn. Mike threatens physical violence against anyone who...

  23. 63. Adam CK Vollick (Patreon Sampler)

    Luke and Mike got to zoom it up with the uber-talented Adam CK Vollick! Adam is an incredible artist who worked with Neil on Le Noise, Paradox, Mountain Top and so much more. It was a blast to talk to him and and hear about his art and work with Neil. Definitely check out all his amazing stuff…

    more
  24. 62. Americana

    Neil gives us his take on some American classics on his 31st studio album, Americana! And he's back with the horse! The boys lament over the "Lost" episode. We get into the origins of the songs. Luke suggests that maybe Neil is more than a time traveling vampire. Mike laments the amount "Tom...

  25. 60. Dreamin' Man Live '92 / A Treasure (International Harvesters)

    Two albums for the price of one today, Youngsters. And oh man, do we got two ABSOLUTE GEMS. We dip into Dreamin' Man and compare it to Harvest Moon. Luke prefers it. Russ thinks it lacks BK, but also loves it. Mike only wants to listen to Such A Woman. We move onto A Treasure and zoom almost...

  26. 59. Le Noise

    Neil joins forces with the uber talented producer Daniel Lanois to create his 30th studio album, Le Noise! And we join forces to talk about it! We go over the album and the unique way they went about making it. Luke very much loves Love and War. Russ reflects on this being the Neil's first…

    more
  27. 58. Summer Wrap-up / Patreon Announcement / Workin' Men (Rush Podcast)

    Spoiler alert: There is almost zero Neil Young talk in this episode. Also - THIS ONE IS RIDICULOUS. If this is your first time tuning in - sorry. Mike couldn't make it this week, but Russ and Luke were near the equipment anyway so they thought they'd record a little something to show you they...

  28. 57. Fork In The Road

    It's Neil's 29th studio album and boy is it a fun one to talk about! The boys have mixed feelings about it. We get into the Lincvolt and the documentary behind it. Russ talks about Ben Keith and this being his last album with Neil. Luke loves Just Singing A Song. We toss around the idea of a...

  29. 56. Chrome Dreams II

    This episode is for all the ordinary youngsters. A half a million youngsters. A factory full of youngsters. A train load of youngsters. Out of town youngsters. Rippin' off the youngsters. Tryin' to help the youngsters. A warning to the youngsters. Protection for the youngsters. Vigilante...

  30. 55. Live at Massey Hall / Live at The Fillmore East

    I hate to get all Staind folks but it's been a while, hasn't it? Well, fear not! The boys are back talking about the first two installments of the ever growing archives! But in true LMYY style, we banter a bit before hand. Not gonna lie there's like 13 minutes of strait banter before Neil gets...

  31. 54. Living With War

    We're living with war, folks. And what a war this episode is. The boys talk about the difference between the original version and the In The Beginning version and talk about which one they prefer. Luke brings up the Deja Vu documentary. We get a little more political towards the end because, how...

  32. 53. Prairie Wind (part 2) / Heart Of Gold (film)

    It only took us a literal month, but we finished Prairie Wind! Who knew this would be the album we needed so much time for? We finish going through the songs. We talk about Heart of Gold - the film, specifically Rick Rosas's bad ass outfit and one-thumb bass playing. Mike discusses his theory on...

  33. 52. Prairie Wind (Part 1)

    It's the crazy season, Youngsters! Luke's hundreds of kids are all in the playoffs, Town Meeting is back up and booking summer shows like crazy, Mike is on the radio constantly and hunting Italian grinders in his downtime. What we're trying to say is, the pandemic it seems is coming to an end...

  34. 51. Greendale

    We've arrived at Greendale. And what a perfect way to head into our second year of this beautiful wonderful nonsense that we call a podcast. Seriously though, what an album. More than that. What a world! Whatever Greendale is supposed to be or not be, all your hosts agree Neil executes everything...

  35. 50. Our 50th Episode!

    It's our 50th episode and we invited all the Youngsters to join our celebration! Oh man, what a ride it's been. It's crazy to think that this time last year we were throwing on Neil's first self-titled album and getting ready to see if this whole thing would work at all. Seriously. Luke didn't…

    more
  36. 49. Are You Passionate (w/ John Craigie)

    The results are in, Youngsters. We are passionate about Are You Passionate! The incredible John Craigie joins us for a second time, this time to talk about Neil's second album of the 2000's. And boy do we have mixed thoughts. We talk about Booker T. Jones meets Ol' Silver Gold. We get really…

    more
  37. 48. Road Rock Vol. 1 / Red Rocks Live

    It's another zoom episode, folks, and oh boy do we get into it on this one. Russ is absent (theories to his whereabouts abound), but thankfully some "friends and relatives" of the show contribute throughout! First, Luke reads a message our good pal Astrid sent about the Red Rocks show about the...

  38. 47. Silver & Gold

    With differing opinions on Neil's 23rd studio album and his first album of the 2000's, your favorite podcast trio discusses Silver & Gold over a zoom call and some hearty flapjacks. Russ obviously talks about Ben Keith, but also his appreciation for the rest of the band. Luke likes the album but...

  39. 46. Year Of The Horse

    Special guest Dan Condon (Luke and Russ's old man - see what I did there) joins us as we dive deep into the waters that are Year Of The Horse. We talk about the album and the film and the crazy differences between the two. We share Neil story's. Talk a little more Billy Joel. Dan tells how he got...

  40. 45. Broken Arrow

    Neil continues to dominate the 90's and take no prisoners as he does it. Broken Arrow is a downright masterpiece. It's Neil and the horse at their absolute finest. Our friend and Neil Guru Chris Letarte joins us for this episode to talk about the impact this album had on him when it came out. We...

  41. 44. War Pigs to War of Man (w/ Astrid Young)

    This week we're joined by the extremely talented Astrid Young - a singer/songwriter, musician, author and all around amazing human being. She also happens to be Neil's half-sister. We talk about going from classical music to Black Sabbath, Astrid's latest album (It's so good), and the story…

    more
  42. 43. Dead Man

    It's been a long December (through March) and here we are now at the Dead Man soundtrack! A film scored exclusively by Neil Young. Obviously not quite as long of an episode this time. We talk soundtracks, scores. Get in a heated debate about what does and doesn't belong in the top ten songs of…

    more
  43. 42. EMERGENCY BONUS EPISODE: Way Down In The Rust Bucket

    On November 13th, in the year 1990 Neil Young rode the horse into a tiny rock club in Santa Cruz, California and recorded the whole thing. He released it 31 years later and it hit Luke so damn good that he immediately texted his other Neil obsessed nerd friends and demanded an emergency bonus...

  44. 41. Neil-lights Fade (w/ Bill Janovitz of Buffalo Tom)

    It's another Monster of the Week episode on Long May You Young and this week we got to zoom it up with Bill Janovitz from Buffalo Tom! We talk about Neil, obviously. But we also talk about getting music into TV shows, how Buffalo Tom got started, naming a band, and what song Bill would love to…

    more
  45. 40. Mirror Ball

    It's 1995 and Neil is teaming up with Pearl Jam to make one of the most fabulous albums of the 90's (In Luke's opinion...) It's Mirror Ball! The boys start by congratulating Mike for his new job doing the morning show at The Pike by singing him a tune they whipped up. We get into the album pretty...

  46. 39. Dylan Vs. Neil (with John Craigie)

    On this week's monster episode (cue x-files theme) we got to talk to the incredibly talented singer/songwriter John Craigie. We talk songwriting, favorite Neil albums, stealing weed from Todd Snyder, and we dabble in the ever popular topic of Dylan vs. Neil. John's released an album last year...

  47. 38. Sleeps With Angels

    A beautiful and sad album from beginning to end, Sleeps With Angels has us feeling all sorts of feelings. In a rare afternoon recording session, we talk about the mournful nature of Neil's 20th studio album (and 7th with the horse) and how he's still got it well into the 90's. Dripping with...

  48. 37. Death, Drugs, and Crispin Glover (w/ Town Meeting)

    So apologies in advance for this episode, folks. It's probably the one we talk about Neil Young the least amount, and you can definitely hear the lack of Mike's notes... It's another Monster episode, and due to circumstances beyond anyone's control, our scheduled guest had to cancel last minute....

  49. 36, Unplugged / Lucky Thirteen

    Since both Lucky Thirteen and Unplugged mostly feature songs that we've covered already, we decided to double them up for this episode. And yes, there are a lot of repeats, but there are so many gems in these records. Russ starts in with more Ben Keith stuff. Mike and Luke fawn over Depression...

  50. 35. Horse Lords w/ Griffin Sherry (The Ghost Of Paul Revere)

    This week we zoomed it up with our friend Griffin Sherry! Griffin is an insanely talented musician and songwriter for the band The Ghost Of Paul Revere. We talked about his favorite Neil albums, what it was like to play on Conan, CSN vs. CSNY, and becoming part of Maine state history. Luke and…
