A delightfully toxic mix of hilarity, snobbery and insight (though not necessarily in equal proportions) on demi-popular music and other musings.

    Well, it's been a while! While, I'd rather not go into detail of the happenings of my personal life that coincided with the 4-month gap between episodes of this podcast (I'm a spy, OK?), will let you know a few things you may have missed: I did not one, not two, but three fill-ins on WFMU. Listen to the results my Discogs transactions. Unblinking Ear Records released the 4th album from Plates of Cake, Let's Not Deprive Each Other. It rules. Get yourself a copy. Let's Not Deprive Each Other by Plates of Cake I recorded a guest appearance for several episodes of the Decline Minute Podcast, where The Decline of Western Civilization (the documentary on the Los Angeles punk scene circa 1980, not current events) is dissected minute-by-minute . They're on hiatus themselves but I believe I'll be the first guest when they come back. A lot of fine people died. I mentioned a few in the latest podcast. However, between its recording and posting, Mike Hudson of the Pagans passed away, which I'd be remiss if I didn't mention. RIP Mike. Anyway, after several false starts and many, many Garageband crashes, here's the new podcast. Download the latest The Unblinking Ear Podcast Or Subscribe via iTunes

    Above is an image from the Instagram of Peteski of this isn't happiness (occasionally NSFW), who was just profiled on Dangerous Minds and sometimes pairs the images he posts with songs he heard on this podcast or on my WFMU fill-ins. I'm finally returning the hat tip. Or I'm just stealing content. However you want to frame it. Download the latest The Unblinking Ear Podcast Or Subscribe via iTunes

    If you enjoy this podcast (and if you're reading this, I hope you would at this point) and live in New York (god help you), you're certainly welcome to come see/hear me DJ live in person with my pal Jenn at young person gathering place Alphaville. Live podcasts are all the rage now and this is sort of like that. Except no ads for Bonobos. So not at all. Download the latest The Unblinking Ear Podcast Or Subscribe via iTunes

    The Unblinking Ear Podcast 1/12/17

    (Above: Kenny Omega, who had a pretty good 2016 himself) My best podcast of the year is usually the first one. Why? Because I've read a whole bunch of other people's best of the year list from the preceding year and cherry picked my favorites from what I hadn't heard. This podcast is truly standing on the shoulders of giants. (Giants, in the case, usually meaning former fanzine editors in their late 40s/early 50s.)

    From the collection of Kevin Pederson  Another clichéd podcast to close out a year who's sheer awfulness has become a cliché. Enjoy it before we all meet our doom. Download the latest The Unblinking Ear Podcast Or Subscribe via iTunes

    This is the first Unblinking Ear Podcast of this brave new era where facts, reason, qualifications and general decency don't matter any more. I feel the word "fiasco" will acheive a new prominence in the coming years. Anyway, here's some tunes to get you through these dark times.
