We dip our axes in hot butter, per request. Phil tells us all about Entourage. Aaron's wife talks in the background. Cole reveals his joker style.

I meant "Jay and Kristen," of course.

Introducing Gear Slum REDTalks where we take suggestions from fans for one-off individualized podcasts on topics YOU want to hear about. 

This one was suggested by Noah Barnett, friend of the show and street crew member, who challenged me to listen to a loop-based violin track: Axis and Orbits by Tracy Silverman, off the album Silverman: Between the Kiss and the Chaos. 

I had a lot of fun with this one, and I hope you enjoy listening to it. And if you'd like your idea podcasted, just send me $20 and a topic and I'll make it happen within 24 hrs. 

As always, thanks for friendship.

We also talk about our friends at Sinasoid and Gunstreet Wiring Shop. 

Please, if you can, support small businesses that you care about, not just because they're small, but because they do something you find important and they do it with integrity. The bad ones can fail for all I care.

This episode, we're joined by Andy Kim of Sinasoid to talk about our new Pelican Noiseworks footswitches, crazy volume pedal mods, and youth soccer? 

Here's a poem, since it's been a while. This one is by William Stafford and it's called "Traveling through the Dark":

Traveling through the dark I found a deer dead on the edge of the Wilson River road. It is usually best to roll them into the canyon: that road is narrow; to swerve might make more dead.   By glow of the tail-light I stumbled back of the car    and stood by the heap, a doe, a recent killing;    she had stiffened already, almost cold. I dragged her off; she was large in the belly.   My fingers touching her side brought me the reason— her side was warm; her fawn lay there waiting,    alive, still, never to be born. Beside that mountain road I hesitated.   The car aimed ahead its lowered parking lights;    under the hood purred the steady engine. I stood in the glare of the warm exhaust turning red;    around our group I could hear the wilderness listen.   I thought hard for us all—my only swerving—,    then pushed her over the edge into the river. --- --- --- --- ---

Full disclosure: I really wanted to name this episode "Like the Joker, Like the Jazz." 

In this episode, we talk about Lake Tahoe politics and jokes to tell kids, then Stash It, Mash It, Trash It gets an overhaul and the guys choose their starter rig of guitar, amp, and digital analog delay. It's a real stunner. 

Thanks to our sponsors and our patrons and our fans and our haters. We appreciate you all. 

This week, I want to encourage all of you to fight racism and xenophobia where you see it. Love each other.

This is episode 158. We talk BYU basketball. We talk about Phil's latest gig. We talk about why teles are so much better for metal than strats. We talk about how bad the Hills reboot show is gonna be. We talk about guns. 

Here's a poem in honor of Joy Harjo's selection as US Poet Laureate: 

Eagle Poem

To pray you open your whole self To sky, to earth, to sun, to moon To one whole voice that is you. And know there is more That you can't see, can't hear, Can't know except in moments Steadily growing, and in languages That aren't always sound but other Circles of motion. Like eagle that Sunday morning Over Salt River. Circled in blue sky In wind, swept our hearts clean With sacred wings. We see you, see ourselves and know That we must take the utmost care And kindness in all things. Breathe in, knowing we are made of All this, and breathe, knowing We are truly blessed because we Were born, and die soon within a True circle of motion,  Like eagle rounding out the morning Inside us.  We pray that it will be done In beauty. In beauty.

I've been listening to a lot of music lately. It feels nice. Speaking of listening to music, you should do it, too, as much as possible. Stream if you have to, but when you find someone worth supporting, go to a show, buy a record or a t-shirt, send them some money on patreon or whatever. SUPPORT them so they can keep doing it.

Speaking of which, I have a limited edition red vinyl version of the new Starflyer 59 album, Young in My Head, arriving today. I'm excited.

P.S. It's Thursday, that means you have today and two more days to make this week awesome. Do something cool. You won't regret it. Tell them I sent you. They'll know what it means. It's a secret; you wouldn't understand.

This podcast is old. Like really old. Next week will be our 150th episode, but this week is the week before that. 

I was thinking about all the terrible stuff that happens and how much bad/evil/nasty/mean stuff there is in the world, and how great it is that we have this small piece of joy that allows us to connect with each other and all of you and how grateful I am for everyone who takes the time to listen, comment, email, post in the facebook group, etc. We say it all the time, but we really are thankful for friendship of each and every one of you. Except B----r B---y. That guy can suck it. 

Slum Hard. Death to Tone. Thanks for Friendship.

Listen, 

Sometimes life gives you choices. 

This week I had a choice between giving you subpar audio for the last few minutes, and depriving you of the final round of Phil's game. I won't tell you what choice I made, but I'll say this: whatever you're dealing with, you have a choice. And sometimes there is no right or wrong. It's enough just to do something, even if it's the "wrong" thing. Take matters into your own hands. Your life is yours and yours alone.

Anyway, here's Wonderwall:

Anyway, Here's your weekly poem: 

Good Bones 

by Maggie Smith

Life is short, though I keep this from my children. Life is short, and I’ve shortened mine in a thousand delicious, ill-advised ways, a thousand deliciously ill-advised ways I’ll keep from my children. The world is at least fifty percent terrible, and that’s a conservative estimate, though I keep this from my children. For every bird there is a stone thrown at a bird. For every loved child, a child broken, bagged, sunk in a lake. Life is short and the world is at least half terrible, and for every kind stranger, there is one who would break you, though I keep this from my children. I am trying to sell them the world. Any decent realtor, walking you through a real shithole, chirps on about good bones: This place could be beautiful, right? You could make this place beautiful.

Imagine a world with no pain. Would it be heaven or would it be hell?

In this episode, we try to guess what Strymon will do next, Aaron gives Cole and Phil an update on Ja Rule following the Fyre documentaries of recent months, Cole wonders why his cohosts are so excited about dice knobs, Phil tries to trick everyone, and the gang wonder about the relative merits of vintage and modern production overdrive units.

Aaron may have coughed occasionally, although he worked really hard to always do it off mic and to remove the sound from the final track where possible.

Today Michael Cohen openly called the president of the USA a racist cheapskate, so that was fun.

Here's your poem of the week. This time from the incomparable Frank O'Hara from his collection Lunch Poems:

The Day Lady Died

It is 12:20 in New York a Friday three days after Bastille day, yes it is 1959 and I go get a shoeshine because I will get off the 4:19 in Easthampton at 7:15 and then go straight to dinner and I don’t know the people who will feed me

I walk up the muggy street beginning to sun and have a hamburger and a malted and buy an ugly NEW WORLD WRITING to see what the poets in Ghana are doing these days I go on to the bank and Miss Stillwagon (first name Linda I once heard) doesn’t even look up my balance for once in her life and in the GOLDEN GRIFFIN I get a little Verlaine for Patsy with drawings by Bonnard although I do think of Hesiod, trans. Richmond Lattimore or Brendan Behan’s new play or Le Balcon or Les Nègres of Genet, but I don’t, I stick with Verlaine after practically going to sleep with quandariness

and for Mike I just stroll into the PARK LANE Liquor Store and ask for a bottle of Strega and then I go back where I came from to 6th Avenue and the tobacconist in the Ziegfeld Theatre and casually ask for a carton of Gauloises and a carton of Picayunes, and a NEW YORK POST with her face on it

and I am sweating a lot by now and thinking of leaning on the john door in the 5 SPOT while she whispered a song along the keyboard to Mal Waldron and everyone and I stopped breathing

We tried not to, but ended up talking about Ryan Adams before digging into practice techniques and other such nonsense. There may have been a little time travel mixed in. 

This episode was a reminder that we're not always on the same page and sometimes we do things the others wouldn't do and vice versa, which is fine. 

I wonder if anyone ever reads these episode descriptions. If you're reading this, send me a DM on Instagram or Facebook and let me know. This is Aaron, by the way. I'm the one who types these things up. I come up with the titles and post episodes. Sometimes I even do some editing. This was one of those times. I'm not looking for compliments or high fives or whatever. I just don't want you to think I'm someone else. 

I'm gonna share a poem with you from the recently deceased Mary Oliver, who was and remains one of my favorites. This one is called "Morning Poem."

Morning Poem by Mary Oliver

Every morning the world is created. Under the orange

sticks of the sun the heaped ashes of the night turn into leaves again

and fasten themselves to the high branches— and the ponds appear like black cloth on which are painted islands

of summer lilies. If it is your nature to be happy you will swim away along the soft trails

for hours, your imagination alighting everywhere. And if your spirit carries within it

the thorn that is heavier than lead— if it's all you can do to keep on trudging—

there is still somewhere deep within you a beast shouting that the earth is exactly what it wanted—

each pond with its blazing lilies is a prayer heard and answered lavishly, every morning,

whether or not you have ever dared to be happy, whether or not you have ever dared to pray.

I hope you enjoyed that as much as I do. I hope one of you cried.

What is life and why? 

This episode is about tube screamers and tabloids; the end of an era; imagine a map folding into and over itself time and time again.

The map is your soul.

The folds are the hours and minutes and seconds of your life, ever repeating.

We owe you nothing; you have no control.

Control is always automatic. 

Our great war is a class war. Our great depression is our lives. 

You are not what you own. 

Peace. Love. Death to Tone. 

Remember Woodstock '94? And how it was a perfect symbol of the way the excess of the 80s had shaped Generation X into a band of entitled pseudo-hippy anti-intellectual exhibitionist nihilist sell-outs? You really think 1969 was any better? It was all an illusion. Same as it ever was. 

Same as it ever was.

This is part two of a two-part episode. If you missed part one, head over to 60 Cycle Hum and give it a listen. 

Before this episode began, we realized Steve was never coming back, but Aaron, Phil, Cole, and Ryan soldiered on, bolstered by a 1 am delivery of way too much In-N-Out by Andy and Matt. After a very short time of listening to us try to derail each other, Matt decided to step in and H the S out of this P. 

If you haven't yet checked out Matt's DRV pedal, you owe it to yourself to do so now. Go to 1981inventions.com and take a look/listen. 

We had one in the house thanks to Super Rich Steve and we were floored by how good it sounds.

In this episode, Cole recalls a recent trip to the local cinemaplex, we talk about Aerosmith (sort of), and Aaron spends 5 straight minutes reading google results about Keeley Compressors while Cole takes a walk and Phil tries not to drown in his boredom.

We also wonder why are compressors so easy to get rid of, no matter how good they are? and what does it take for a drive pedal to really stand out these days?

Alternate titles:

Who’s Guitarist?

Aerosmith’s Second Act

One Hundgren Years

Peace out, Pat!

Phil and the Land of Faraway

We get a little intro help from two of our coolest listeners and patrons, friends of the show Matt Walz and Dan Dullen. If you haven't checked out Matt's pedals at Killer Otter Electric, or Dan's amazing woodwork at Dullen Customs, you need to remedy that immediately. 

For this Thanksgiving edition of The Gear Slum, we go through some Black Friday deals we've heard about and also some recent pedal releases from Wampler Pedals, Matthews Effects, Chase Bliss Audio, and SolidGoldFx.
