14:50 - Interestingly, this still seems to be the case. The KONGOS site contains almost no reference to their first album.

35:58 - The Imperial in Vancouver is one of Steve's favourite venues, if only for the aesthetic. It looks like a dive in the slums, but inside has a cool Asian fusion design and great acoustics.

46:45 - We actually did wind up covering Moby, albeit years later. Check out our episode M Is For Moby!
