TRAPPO‪!‬ TRAPPO!

This week on the show that talks about stuff on purpose, we're beginning a new and wonderful journey that we're all very excited about! Welcome to the inaugural Old Music Showcase! That's right, we're dusting off some older gems in our shared musical past, shining them up and presenting them once again for your listening pleasure.



This time around, we're talking all about rock & roll pioneer Buddy Holly and his debut album 1957's The "Chirping" Crickets, as well as the one-time "Viking of 6th Avenue" himself, the enigmatic Moondog and his breakthrough 1953 collection of experimental music, Moondog On The Streets Of New York.



Please feel free to join the conversation! Share your thoughts on the music we've discussed on this latest episode, and if you have any hidden musical gems from the past you'd like to bring to our attention, pass those suggestions right along! Just CLICK HERE to visit the official TRAPPO blog and leave us a comment at your leisure!

Happy Spring-O-Ween! To celebrate this festive occasion, the show that talks about stuff on purpose is getting festive discussing 2023's Dark Harvest, director David Slade's much-delayed adaptation of the 2006 Halloween-themed novella from writer Norman Partridge! Both the film adaptation and source material are spoiled in their entirety, so fair warning!

Dark Harvest is available to watch on Prime Video.

Join the conversation! Tell us how you commemorate Spring-O-Ween by leaving a comment on the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE), or by sending us a long-winded email (CLICK HERE)! We're also all over social media, so check us out on Threads (CLICK) and Instagram (CLICK) and join the TRAPPO revolution!

Thanks for listening, and long live Sawtooth Jack!

Once upon a time, a kindly stranger sent us a lovely, well thought out email that recommended a big pile of music they wanted us to check out. Then we promptly ignored that email for months and months, not out of malice, but sheer laziness. In an effort to make amends, we made the decision to check out all of the music our dear friend Merrill wanted us to listen to, and now there's an entire episode dedicated to discussion of all that music. So get comfortable, because it's going to be a long and bumpy ride.

Here it is, Merrill. You're welcome.

What did you think of all the music we discussed in this veritable marathon of an episode? Tell us all about it by leaving a comment on the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE) or sending us your very own email (CLICK HERE) chock full of musical recommendations that we might eventually tackle in a guilt-ridden episode! We've also got a poll on our latest post, since we couldn't come to consensus regarding a couple of Merrill's picks, so you really should visit the blog (CLICK HERE) and vote in that incredibly important poll. Don't let Merrill down, not like us!

We're also on Instagram (CLICK) and Threads (CLICK) if you want to follow us and join TRAPPO's social media revolution. It's gonna be a bloodbath!

Thanks for listening!

On this very special episode of the show that talks about stuff on purpose, your hosts Dustin & Ky are discussing the latest epic release from the Queen herself, Cowboy Carter from Beyoncé! The way we figure, everybody else is already talking about it, so we might as well follow the trends for once and share our opinions on this monumental musical work of art, now that you've already heard a thousand other, more informed opinions and since moved on with your life.

So join us as we sell out!

Join the conversation! Tell us what you think about Cowboy Carter, Beyoncé's greater oeuvre, and why we should never talk about mainstream music again. Just CLICK HERE to visit the official TRAPPO blog and leave a dozen spiteful comments telling us that we're just embarrassing ourselves here and really need to pack it in. You could also send those thoughts in a long-winded email (CLICK HERE), which we would very much appreciate.

Would you like to follow TRAPPO on social media? Do you want to join the revolution? Then CLICK HERE to 'gram with the TRAPS and CLICK HERE to Thread yourselves into oblivion! We're saving a seat for you down at the social media hacienda.

Thanks for listening!

Welcome to the 29th installment of the show that talks about you on purpose! This time around, things get a little weird as we discuss your feedback on a wide variety of topics, including but not limited to, Dorthia Cottrell's Death Folk Country, poseurs, contrarians, the horrors of seasonal depression, our dream of an official TRAPPO cook book, the importance of voting, recurring equipment failure, crippling shame, Frank Zappa controversy, and a whole bunch of other stuff that probably won't make any sense to anybody. So enjoy it!

Would you like to join this crazy conversation? Probably not, but you're more than welcome to take part. All you have to do is visit the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE) and leave some comments on the post of your choosing. Tell us what you think of the state of modern pop culture in our dying world! We'd love to know your opinions! You could also send those complicated thoughts in a long and rambling email (CLICK HERE), and we'll probably respond to you at some point in the future.

We're also on social media, if by "social media" you mean Instagram and Threads. Come Thread with us (CLICK) or 'gram with us (CLICK) at your leisure! We'd love to bombard you with a bunch of our inane banter on a semi-regular basis, so please join us on social media! Or don't. Either way, we're cool.

Thanks for listening!

TRAPPO has heard you loud and clear, dear listener! You wanted another quiz, and now you've got it! Welcome to the inaugural episode of "The Quiz That Never Ends"!

It's a quiz, but it does have an ending, so don't freak out or anything. It's only called "The Quiz That Never Ends" because it feels like it will go on forever. Join your host Dustin as he leads his contestant Ky on a journey through a battered and broken pop culture landscape in search of non-existent prizes! It's gonna be a blast!

Join the conversation! Tell us what you thought of the latest episode, or just share potential topics for future episodes by visiting the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE) and leaving a comment! If you're feeling more verbose and would like to get something off your chest, feel free to share those thoughts in a bloated email (CLICK HERE) and we'll be glad to read whatever you send us!

TRAPPO is also on social media. Mostly Threads (CLICK) and maybe on Instagram (CLICK) from time to time, but that's pretty much it. Come to Threads and hang out with us! Follow us on Instagram if that's your kink. We don't judge. Just as long as you have a good time without hurting anybody, TRAPPO is cool with it.

Thanks for listening!
