A Few Qs Fewer As · Deprogrammed Music Podcast

  It's Deprogrammed, the podcast where we try to get you into a
• 0:24
  band. That's right, we've done all the
• 0:26
  work for you. All you have to do is press play
• 0:29
  and listen. My name is Justin, and you can
• 0:31
  call me band Curious because I am indeed curious about bands.
• 0:36
  Well, what that means to you, I don't know 'cause you've
• 0:39
  stumbled upon us on a day where we're doing AQ and A.
• 0:44
  And typically what we would do is have a conversation about an
• 0:47
  artist and come together and create a top 10 starter kit list
• 0:51
  for you to get into said band. We're not doing that today.
• 0:55
  Today is AQ and a episode. Not a ton of questions, which
• 0:58
  ends up being OK because as I've talked about all week, I'm going
• 1:02
  out of town. So kind of getting these in in
• 1:06
  and out is actually kind of advantageous this week.
• 1:09
  But if you do have questions for next week's Q&A or if you would
• 1:15
  like to do your top five concerts, let me know.
• 1:18
  Best way to do that is jumping in our discord, the Legion of
• 1:21
  stupid Discord. You can join.
• 1:22
  You can ask a for a link from me or if you're already in there,
• 1:26
  then you already know where it's at.
• 1:29
  Or if you've got the cash, a dollar a month gets you into the
• 1:33
  patreonpatreon.com/yo Hi Justin gets you behind the paywall.
• 1:37
  It gets you an automatic link to our Discord server.
• 1:41
  You can jump on in and all sorts of things are happening in the
• 1:44
  Discord server. So that would be awesome if
• 1:47
  you'd consider that. So Huzzah asks.
• 1:51
  And look, no pressure by the way.
• 1:55
  You decide however you want to be in on this community.
• 2:00
  If you decide that you would like to be a part of the
• 2:03
  community by being on the show, you're welcome.
• 2:09
  But if this is how you'd like to contribute, this is awesome.
• 2:13
  I love the fact that the thing I'm loving about the Q&A's is
• 2:20
  that we are able to kind of talk to each other through through
• 2:25
  the pod. And I'm also able to kind of I
• 2:29
  think the thing that gets lost in Deprogrammed is the me of it
• 2:33
  all. And a lot of people probably
• 2:37
  find the show and don't, you know, realize that I'm likely
• 2:43
  discovering the music it used to be like for the first time that
• 2:48
  week. So I think that kind of gets
• 2:51
  lost in it all. And I think this is a good way
• 2:53
  to get to know me outside of Hey, I I didn't get your band
• 2:59
  right. So again, if you would like to
• 3:03
  jump on board, this is a great way to to stay engaged with the
• 3:07
  show and be very, it is very helpful to the show.
• 3:12
  So I'm very appreciative of anybody who jumps into the
• 3:15
  Discord and asks questions. I'm very appreciative of that.
• 3:20
  So let's say this. So his eye says some questions
• 3:23
  for the next Q&A episode and also for anyone who wants to
• 3:26
  answer. So if you want to jump in and
• 3:28
  answer on the Discord, it is on the deprogrammed channel in
• 3:33
  Discord. So first asks, is there a genre
• 3:36
  or subgenre of music that others like, but you struggle to enjoy?
• 3:41
  I I don't look, I'm going to go chalk here and say country and
• 3:49
  I'm sure that is probably just due to not not diving into the
• 3:56
  quote UN quote correct country artists.
• 3:59
  I've had brief brush insurance with things that are kind of
• 4:04
  country adjacent on the show like we did Jason Isbell, we
• 4:08
  did, I don't know, like some of the rock acts we've done are are
• 4:14
  adjacent to country and I liked those.
• 4:17
  That leads me to believe that I'm probably just not getting
• 4:20
  the right country artists to like fully get on board with
• 4:24
  country. But that said, I I definitively
• 4:29
  do not like what would be considered newer country, or at
• 4:35
  least how it's presented to me as newer country.
• 4:40
  I think Florida Georgia Line is that like there's these country
• 4:45
  rap type things that came out. And I I mean, at this point it's
• 4:49
  probably all already a decade old.
• 4:50
  So calling it new is questionable, but definitely not
• 4:57
  on board with that. The whole like rap songs about
• 5:01
  driving my truck and and it just, it just isn't for me.
• 5:05
  If if it's for you word. Just not for me.
• 5:11
  Have you ever gone from liking an artist to not liking them?
• 5:14
  Yeah. I'm at a place in my life where
• 5:20
  I feel like I don't hold space for not liking artists.
• 5:25
  So if it's something that I liked at one point and don't
• 5:28
  like them now, it just kind of escapes my mind.
• 5:33
  There's a couple bands like Sublime and Red Hot Chili
• 5:36
  Peppers who've been both. I loved when they came out, went
• 5:40
  through a portion where I disliked them, came back to them
• 5:44
  and have since jumped back off board.
• 5:47
  I don't, I truly don't know where I stand on Sublime anymore
• 5:50
  because I I just don't listen to them anymore.
• 5:56
  I I feel like I feel that way about the Chili Peppers but who
• 5:59
  knows? I could pop on Blood Sugar sex
• 6:02
  Magic and be back on board just from the nostalgia of it all.
• 6:07
  Who knows, but I mean, it's mostly mostly if I like them and
• 6:14
  then moved to dislike them, I I remove remove them from, you
• 6:21
  know, from the template. Like I just don't think about
• 6:25
  them anymore. I suppose maybe like a, a
• 6:31
  stained might be there, although again, like there's a nostalgia
• 6:34
  to those first two records for sure.
• 6:38
  Yeah, I don't know. I'll have to think about that
• 6:40
  one further. Like a band that I really liked
• 6:45
  that I can definitively say I don't anymore.
• 6:51
  Twisted maybe. I don't know.
• 6:53
  I I I don't listen to them anymore, but I don't know if
• 6:56
  it's because I don't like them or if it was something more than
• 6:59
  that. Parents, what bands, artists do
• 7:02
  your kids like and what have their musical journeys been like
• 7:05
  so far? So I kind of touched on this
• 7:10
  when I did the top five concerts, but my youngest
• 7:16
  latched onto a group from here from where we're from called
• 7:21
  Padfoot. And she really enjoys Padfoot,
• 7:24
  which is awesome. And she's really because of she
• 7:28
  got drawn to Blink through me and our friend Joe.
• 7:34
  She's really into Blink and it's kind of really set her onto this
• 7:38
  journey of pop punk and just kind of punk in general.
• 7:44
  And because of the way streaming music is and Spotify is, she's
• 7:52
  really been on like a really interesting journey of so she
• 7:58
  stumbled on Third Eye Blind on her own, which was really neat.
• 8:02
  And then, you know, it was semi charmed life and jumper that she
• 8:07
  was listening. I I don't know if I told this.
• 8:09
  I don't know if I told this here or on and after the fact or
• 8:12
  something. But so she brought me.
• 8:15
  Hey, dad, have you ever heard this song?
• 8:17
  Or I know that you have. I can't remember how she
• 8:20
  approached it, but I was like, oh man, if you like this, then
• 8:22
  you need to listen to losing a whole year.
• 8:25
  And so I played that for her and she's like, Oh my God, that's
• 8:27
  awesome. She kind of like got into that,
• 8:29
  like she brought me Everclear and all these 90s bands and I'm
• 8:34
  like, oh man, that's cool. Like I Local H being another one
• 8:42
  is just really neat to see the different corners of the musical
• 8:47
  universe that stream allows or at least encourages it.
• 8:53
  That part is kind of neat about it feels like when I was coming
• 8:59
  up, you you listen to 96 X, you liked rock, alt rock music and
• 9:05
  that was kind of it. I mean, where I'm from, you
• 9:07
  could you could also get into hip hop.
• 9:10
  And because I was in band, I can't.
• 9:13
  It was encouraged because we played a lot of like Woo and you
• 9:18
  know, I know this guy isn't great nowadays, but Puff Daddy,
• 9:24
  but a lot of stuff like that and Outkast we played, you know, I
• 9:29
  this one always slips the memory, but we played elevators
• 9:31
  when it came out. We used to play elevators in
• 9:33
  marching band. It's it's hilarious to think
• 9:38
  about now, but it like, yeah, my kid, my youngest especially, is
• 9:46
  really on this journey of really expansive and my oldest has kind
• 9:52
  of found her there. I guess it's kind of like
• 9:58
  bedroom pop is what they're into.
• 10:02
  I don't know any other way to explain it is, but it's it's a
• 10:07
  lot of dreamy stuff, a lot of acoustic guitar and they listen
• 10:12
  to a lot of music, but it isn't as prevalent as it is for my
• 10:17
  youngest. So yeah, it it is.
• 10:23
  I couldn't name any artist on, although I will say my oldest
• 10:26
  has gotten into Modest Mouse and I don't know, I forget the, the
• 10:33
  entry point. They told me the song when they
• 10:36
  were home for Christmas break shoot.
• 10:40
  But I immediately started playing Modest Mouse in the car.
• 10:43
  And I mean, again, like easiest ways to connect with me are
• 10:49
  through comedy and music. I mean, obviously.
• 10:55
  So when they said, hey, I like Modest Mouse, I was like, I'm
• 10:59
  going to jump at that. So the fact that they found
• 11:04
  Modest Mouse when most of their artists I had never heard of and
• 11:09
  they kind of discovered through YouTube videos and whatnot.
• 11:12
  So there's that answer. And if you would like to answer
• 11:15
  those again, hop in on our Discord, ask for a link or a
• 11:19
  dollar a month gets you like the automatic invite.
• 11:22
  Would appreciate that a great deal.
• 11:25
  Currently, your dollar does get you that automatic invite.
• 11:29
  It does get you deprogrammed before the rest of the world.
• 11:31
  It does get you the after the fact conversation that happens
• 11:35
  after every episode deprogrammed.
• 11:37
  But it also gets you access to the legion of stupid radio,
• 11:41
  which as of right now is still closed circuit.
• 11:43
  I am close to kind of putting starting to put it out there.
• 11:49
  I just, I'm, I'm really trying to collect the music and I'm
• 11:52
  really looking to probably put this forward as like something
• 11:57
  similar to PBS where it's, it's listener funded.
• 12:01
  So if you'd like to consider pledging and your pledge being
• 12:10
  a, a considered a sponsorship for an hour, I'm thinking about
• 12:15
  putting a, a level, A tier level where it'd be $2.00 a month.
• 12:21
  So I don't know, consider that if that's something you'd be
• 12:24
  interested in if you're already on board, obviously, you know,
• 12:28
  but if you're listening to this and that's something you'd be on
• 12:31
  board with, you'd like to pledge and sponsor an hour of WLOS,
• 12:38
  reach out to me and we'll make that happen And we can, we can
• 12:41
  talk about that. But anyway, that does it for
• 12:44
  now. I ended up talking a lot longer
• 12:46
  than I'd planned, so I'm get your questions in for next week.
• 12:51
  I'm kind of glad I I didn't take more questions because then I
• 12:54
  would have been happening forever.
• 12:55
  So we will see you all on Monday.
• 12:58
  Goodbye.
