Pete forever, LGM

That's not really the main topic of the show but I'm trying something here with a little click-bait.

Ellen, Dave, and Kait are back together this week and talking about MLB expansion, position players pitching, Mrs. Met's skin, and a Furry we ran i... more

The dog days are over! It's September and Juan Soto is back. Oh, it's so good to see him. He is being delusional and he is wearing a Lisa Frank-style multi-hued neon leopard-print cap. Diva! Love you.

This week on Hits Different, Dave and Kait say ... more

We're without Dave this week, so it took 10 tries to turn the microphones on. Next week we'll be without Ellen, but plus Dave, and I'm sure we'll struggle with something else (probably our senses of style and joie de vivre). And the following week we... more

  • re. The “King of New York” Sound Cue

    Love the show but this sound cue is MUCH louder than the host audio and consistently throws me for a loop.
