    Ep.64: Back for the Fourth Time (“Treat Yourself”)

    Ep.64: Back for the Fourth Time (“Treat Yourself”)

    The KC crew is BACK. After lying dormant for seven lunar cycles, Alex and Chris have emerged with a renewed sense of purpose… AND a brand-new single. In their triumphant return, the Cuzzins talk about their just-released 2024 track - their first collab in 11 years - “Treat Yourself.” They discuss the impetus for the song, why they felt compelled to rap once again, and - along the way - weigh in on the Kendrick/Drake/Cole beef.

    The Thinking Man's Weed Rap ("Puft Up")

    The Thinking Man's Weed Rap ("Puft Up")

    This is it, folks. In the action-packed SEASON FINALE of the Kast, we are discussing the very last song on KC's final album. It's a track called "Puft Up," and in addition to some wild and drugged-out rhymes, it features none other than DJ Ray on the cuts. 
    Join us as we reflect on what (SPOILER ALERT) may be our most successful all-around track. We'll also talk about how rapping is like caulking a bathtub... the time Proxy went to an acoustic Everclear concert and was very disappointed... and much more.

    Ep.62: Sponsored by Barbie - In Theaters Now! ("Sociopathy" feat. Vov Abraxas)

    Ep.62: Sponsored by Barbie - In Theaters Now! ("Sociopathy" feat. Vov Abraxas)

    Margot Robie! Ryan Gosling! Simu Liu! We hear they're ALL in that new Barbie movie. (We don't know for sure, we haven't seen it.) Our understanding is that if we mention them throughout the Kast, we'll get a big check sent our way. So... here's hoping.
    Ahem.
    Also in today's episode: We discuss the serial killer-themed song "Sociopathy" from our sophomore album, W.E.B.A.C.K. It's a weird little ditty that features guest vocals from our good friend Vov Abraxas. We'll get into the music, lyrics and more. Plus: Dead pets and what's happening on Sesame Street these days (it isn't good).

    White Trash Affiliated ("(Not) Looking for Trouble")

    White Trash Affiliated ("(Not) Looking for Trouble")

    Have you ever wondered what it would sound like if two guys who've never been in a fight wrote a song about fighting? Well, prepare to have your curiosity satisfied... sort of.
    In this week's episode of the Kast, Alex and Chris discuss yet another of their novely rap songs. Is it more successful than the time they rapped about stealing from a museum? You be the judge. (But the answer's no.)

    Definitely, Yeah Definitely Banter (“Brilliant Banter”)

    Get these fellas to the casino! In this super-sized episode of the Kast, Proxy and Keef welcome yet another Chris to the show to discuss “Brilliant Banter,” a pass-the-mic that manages to reference everything from Bob Probert to Octoroks.
    Along the way, we talk Rain Man, Raine Maida and whether Frankenstein’s monster *really* sang “Puttin’ On the Ritz” at the end of Mary Shelley’s 1818 novel.

    Blood Meridian & Summer Vibes ("Charleston Charge - REMIX")

    But first, we discuss a beat that Alex made for a Sweet Tooth track.

I love/hate the exercise of revisiting old projects. It's usually a painful process, so I feel connected to the guys when they’re unpacking the time/place responsible for those younger versions of themselves. Whenever off-topic, Alex and Chris’s tangents can be uneven — sometimes lol moments, other times complete distractions. But I like the space they allow for one another. One note: they’re really hung up on the whole white rapper thing. I get that’s the self-deprecating nature of the show but may I say — give the white man a chance. You ever hear of 3rd Base? Educate yourselves.

I do like when they talk about Big Bufords tho. That’s a burger at Checkers. They talk about it — like, a lot.

I also like how they regularly implore/guilt/shame their listeners into rating/reviewing the podcast.

Oh, and bring back the fake British accents, please.

Very entertaining show! Weekly listener.
