Did you hear that time when The Chartographers ranked all The Decemberists albums and it was a brutal, visceral debate of madness and gladness? Well don't worry: Taran & Evan are still friends with guest Bobby Evers from CHIRP Radio, and his Happy Hour Minisode is a rollicking, goofy time that eventually devolves into us listing which Colin Meloy song character is the most bangable. 

The theme song for this episode is "Hands of the Dead" by Seattle power-pop greats The Hoot Hoots. This, along with other thrilling singalong numbers, can be found on their album COLORPUNCH, available here: [ thehoothoots.bandcamp.com/album/colorpunch ] Used with permission.

This week's episode I had the utmost pleasure of speaking with my best friend Hollywood Mike, who is probably the biggest Ru Paul's Drag Race fan. We spoke in-depth on his obsession with the show and played a rousing game of This or That: Drag Race Edition. I have been wanting to have Mike on the show for such a long time, and I am glad we were finally able to make it happen.

MIke and I had so much to talk about that we ended up recording two episodes in one night. Unfortunately, due to technical difficulties, part 2 of the episode was lost. That just means Mike has to make it a trip back into Chicago for round 2 of MItchcast.
