• MonkeyBeat 49: Warts & All

  by MonkeyBeat September 8, 2010
  Some gremlins got lose the recording gear here, so there is a bit of a whine heard anytime my mic goes on. But let's face it, you don't listen to this show to hear my yapping. You listen because of the great music & this episode has bucketfuls of that! Songs played: The Tunas - Shat My Pants G...

• MonkeyBeat 48: Napping Time

  by MonkeyBeat August 29, 2010
  This show starts with a POP from The Dollyrots' new disc, then we move on to more of a country vibe which cause me to go off on a tangent about why I want to do major harm to that lying cocksucker benny hinn. I try to calm down by breaking out some classic garage rock seven inchers from the mid-90's...

• MonkeyBeat 47: My Elephant Lamp

  by MonkeyBeat August 18, 2010
  I think the heat melted my mind while recording this one. I start out pretty much sharp and on top of announcing the music being played. However, about 45 minutes into it I seem to mess up even the simplest of band names and song titles. Make sure you follow what is printed below, not your brain de...

  by MonkeyBeat July 22, 2010
  It's an odds & sods show this week, as I toss tunes that have been laying around into a pot to make a menudo for your ears. I also do my usual bit of bitching and complaining, question if there is more than one HeWhoCannotBeNamed, talk about better podcasts you should be listening to, and contin...

• MonkeyBeat 45: MonkeyBeat Sucks

  by MonkeyBeat July 17, 2010
  Limited rambling on this show due to me having limited time to record, so I fill the rest of the time playing good music. I also find time to do another blind listening to a band that currently #33 on a local music chart. Songs played: The Hives - Early Morning Wake Up Call The Goldstars - You Cro...

  by MonkeyBeat June 27, 2010

• Michael Lucas Interview on MonkeyBeat

  by MonkeyBeat August 18, 2009
  I've been pretty lazy about logging into the Hideout (actually I think it's been about a year since I did so), but I think the latest episode of my podcast will be of interest to many of the people on this site. http://www.monkeybeatcity.com MonkeyBeat 28: Michael Lucas Interview Mike Lucas is ...
