We bring in some friends to take a look back at Steely Dan's debut album, Can't Buy a Thrill.

We've been sitting on this episode way too long because I've been too lazy to do links and artwork, so I'm posting it more or less as is. Thanks for your p... more

Get ready for one digression after another (and a little Reddit theater) as Scott and Joe piece together their thoughts on Can’t Buy a Thrill’s final track “Turn That Heartbeat Over Again.” The song’s narrative inspires Scott’s choice, the “try-hard”... more

On a particularly coastal episode, Joe and Scott survey the "sun-struck L.A. optimism of 'Change of the Guard'" and end up agreeing with (later) Donald Fagen that it "approaches a level of filler," though Skunk delivers another killer guitar solo. Th... more

  • Love this show

    Love this show. It’s about Dylan reminiscences by guests. Unlike a lot of shows, it’s not about the presenters

  • Steely Clams

    Its a great podcast. Great breakdown of each track. The subtle comedic tone and in depth review of films etc is really enjoyable. I can tell that Scott and Jon are both hard core fans of Steely Dan. They might be the answer to "Cumtown" joke calling it the Steely Dan Podcast.

    Keep up the good work. I look forward to the breakdown of the rest of their catalog and seeing what additional material they want to relate to each track.

  • More than a music podcast

    In addition to deep dives a lot about Steely Dan and jazz rock, the hosts connect the music to poignant real life experiences. Their knowledge is deep and their storytelling abilities on point. Highly recommend.
