Pullin from the Stacks - Episode 195

Recorded this episode right after the Supreme Court leak of the opinion turning back Roe v. Wade, so I had to start it off with an old spoken-word piece from Digable Planets. "The facists are some heavy dudes / they don't really give a damn about life." Words that continue to ring true.

One of Belgrade's pre-eminent conservators of golden era hip-hop in a seamless 90-min mix for your listening pleasure.

The Captain Who Went to Lunch has been one of the torch bearers, unselfishly spreading the good vibes and helping people rediscover hip-hop in its most authentic form.  An electrical engineer soon to be, vinyl addict, and host of the Banana Split Sugar-Free and Potassium Flavored Tapes digs deep into the crates on this one.
