My execrable taste in music is often the talk of the (aging) hipster crowd I hang around. So let's put this question to the test. Give me a date since January 30 2006, and I will post the playlist that would have been played on my oft-dreamt-about-but-so-far-fictional-podcast on that date. Then you give me a thumbs up or down.
Yes, I know it's a little me-centric.
Here's an example, let's go with Emma from Knoxville's 11th birthday, June 21, 2007
1) Charlie Hunter – Soweto’s Where It’s At
2) Rick Springfield – The Light Of Love
3) Marvin Gaye – Can I Get a Witness
4) Pink Floyd – The Thin Ice
5) Hamell On Trial – Get In the Game
6) War – Where Was You At
7) Vince Gill – Almost Home
8) BB King – I’ll Survive
9) Peter Gabriel – Kiss That Frog
10) James Chance – Comfort Yourself

I can't judge it until I hear it. these are songs that i don't know (I don't think), but I might like (or not like).
whip up a few podcasts and post them. I trust you have decent taste in music.
DO IT.

You've seen Dreamscape, right? If the young Kate Capshaw shows up, just go along with the ride, and thank me later.

I was wondering if anyone would get the reference. I saw that thing advertised on the Big Cheap (LA Theater) list of all places.
Was Daniel Pinchbeck there? I met him a couple of times in the late 90s, at readings for his literary magazine and at a protester flophouse at the 2000 Republican Convention in Philly. He was such a normal dude, it boggles my mind that he's reinvented himself as DMT groupie New Age apocalypse man.

Except for occasional Allmans, from their pre-death period, I detest southern rock.

Yeah Grote,
Pinchbeck was there. He actually was pretty much like a normal dude. He actually diffused a lot of the kook momentum with his "I-just-read-a-lot-of-stuff" persona. Seems like he just sorta found something that he found amusing, is using it as a way to frame certain pet politics, and is kinda involved in some weird mutual exploitation racket with these New Age hucksters who can't say three sentences without saying "buy my book and you'll learn more!" Pinchbeck at least just seems like an intellectual who actually has genuine interest in things beyond exploiting them. I think there was actually one legitimate Maya scholar at the thing but we missed it because we went to Baja Fresh ('doh!). But we did get to watch this funny ex-Jewish yogi play a gong and then do like a maharishi-meets-borscht-belt chakra-conscious comedy routine. That was pretty good.

I'm glad to hear it. That'll teach me to believe anything I read in Rolling Stone.

I hope you got something "Mayan" just to keep your weekend consistent.
