Dana & Carl Guest On THE SPOON podcast

 

Waaaaaay back in May of 2021, your intrepid This Is Rock 'n' Roll Radio auteurs Dana & Carl appeared as guests on The Spoon, the rockin' 'n' rollickin' podcast hosted by Robbie Rist, Chris Jackson, and Thom Bowers. Our 2021 Spoon guest shot was called "We Cook Our Hot Dogs," and I would explain the title to you if I understood it myself. A splendid time was strongly implied for all. Listen! We're a HOOT!

Now, apparently enough time has passed that our Robbie, Chris, and Thom have effectively forgotten we were ever on The Spoon in the first place, and they asked us back. We said YEAH! before they could change their minds. 

The resulting rock 'em/sock 'em gabfest is "Still In The Garage (The Carl & Dana Story)," and it's available right here right now for your free-range podcast-perusing pleasure. Here's The Spoon's official hype:

This is The Spoon, where our guests are Carl Cafarelli and Dana Bonn from This Is Rock N Roll Radio, and we're making the world safe for fuzz pedals and phase shifters.

And make sure you stay tuned all the way to the end, for the shocking revelation of why the Men of The Spoon finally asked us back. Not a hoax! Not a dream! Not an imaginary story! But it is an effective demonstration of knowing what to kiss and when.

The first time we were on The Spoon, I wrote that The Spoon had "lowered its admission standards to the lofty height of a speed bump and invited [us] to participate. We felt like big shots! Obscure big shots, sure, but big shots nonetheless. And it was a blast, a great opportunity to be our silly selves and pretend it's entertainment...."

Still true! And we remain honored, delighted, and even amused. Thank you, Men of The Spoon! With great podcasting comes great responsibility. Just think of us as your mulligan. Carry on.

If it's true that one book leads to another, my next book will be The Greatest Record Ever Made! (Volume 1). Stay tuned. Your turn is coming.
