2:02 - Sweet irony! A few years after this was released, Charlene Kaye began to simply go as KAYE for her music career.

15:05 - This won't be the last time Steve mentions XFM. XFM was "The New Rock Alternative" radio station that wasn't afraid to step into experimental and heavier music that the established rock and pop stations wouldn't generally touch. They were ultimately killed by what made them so special: they really limited how many ads they ran. It was great to actually find a station that played mostly music...but it's probably why they couldn't afford to continue. Steve credits this station with his discovery of a lot of 90's underground and alternative music.

16:41 - The song is "Dynamite" by Taio Cruz. Charlene's cover appears to have been taken down.

18:56 - Sour Grapes Winery has since shut down, but you CAN read Doug's review here.

23:42 - Steve was thinking of Matthew Morrison.

28:19 - You can watch our video "Just Another Night" Part 1 here and Part 2 here! Boring or hilarious? You decide!

35:45 - What a crazy episode that wound up being... check it out, X Is For Xiu Xiu!
