Lou and Jaime Z intrude the digital airwaves about indie, punk, hardcore, metal, rock, hell, music in general. A couple of albums are reviewed and a topic is discussed. Babies are born and rainbows appear. And maybe some vodka is drank. Lou and Jaime Z met through a comic shop in the King of Prussia mall around the summer of 1999. Jaime rang our hero Lou up for some comic books and asked if Patrick was his brother. Lou awkwardly answered "Yes" and ran out of the store in fright. A few weeks…

A good podcast with many facts about our eight-armed friends from the sea. Also, coincidentally the mascot of Garbage’s long awaited 8th album (get it?). Lou takes a trip to VAMPA and Jaime hits up the shore. We review Cosmic Joke, Wednesday, Modern Life is War, Spiritual Cramp and touch on SUO, Sir Chloe, and Booze and Glory (more on those next time) Songs Featured in Episode 144: "Pick Up That…

Episode 141 Notes: Where on the internet can you find a podcast that compares Sharon Van Etten to “Beyond the Black Rainbow”? One at the most We talk about Monte, Ty, Sharon Van Etten & the Attachment Theory. Kendrick Lamar, Klaus Nomi, and Julia and the Squeezettes. All this and a special guest drops by to plug current and future projects Songs Featured in Episode 141 “Devil Tattoo” – Ty “I Can’t…

Episode 139 Notes: Once again we fufill our legal obligation as a music podcast to put out our top 10 albums of 2024. We review Haley Heynderickx and Punitive Damage, discuss Nosferatu, Charlie XCX, Iron Infusions, and the Holidays. Cover songs are a weird thing. You need to strike a balance between familiar while giving it enough of a twist to make it unique (have we ever done “best cover”, I…
After a 4-month hiatus we return just in time for Halloween/Anniversary (our 8th?) and Christmas. Most notably in that time, Lou fought (and vanquished) a mouse. Somewhere in there we went and saw Iron maiden and took a minute to discuss the X-Files and a deep cut off the recent Garbage cover album. A big contributor to all this was some medical issues that I (Lou), had to deal with that we…
We recorded this one in two parts and ultimately lost half the episode due to technical monkeyshines. I have never struggled so hard to get something out only to give up on it. Anyway, here is the salvaged version. Still some good stuff but pretty oof….. Songs featured in Episode 137: “Fire” - Romuvos ”Plucked” - Destroy Boys
Golly…. This one has kitties, book reports (Kathleen Hanna’s “Rebel Girl”) documentaries on divisive bands and music music music!

Also, stick around for a rehashing of “Elegy for Andy Gibb” Songs Featured in Episode 135: “Goodbye to All That” – MakeWar “Whatever Happened “KCar” Find us at:…
This one is short and sweet. As you will hear, we were testing out the new microphone setup and wanted to keep it short in case the audio sounded like “bleh”. We talk about Candy, the long-awaited return of post metal’s favorite cannibal sorcerer, and a second go at Black Dresses Songs featured in Episode 135: “Love like Snow” – Candy “Blast” – Julie Christmas “Tush” - ZZ Top Find us at:…

On that last note, please check out “Unsubscribe from the Underground” out September10, 2024 via Kitten Robot Records.…
Sometimes the episodes are good. Sometimes they…aren’t so good. This one falls into the second category. Things start out good with talk of eclipses and earthquakes before sliding into an episode of TSS after dark and eventually starting to get shakey about 30 minutes in. The bands are good at least. We talk about the amazing Castle Rat, METS, Spaced, and the reissue of 90’s alt-rock bad Garbage’s…
Furious Podcasting Settle in for a big ole piece of butter pie and some furious podcasting as we briefly recount trips to Italy and training camp, almost getting arrested over a popular novel of yesteryear, Lou’s secret girlfriend, and Jaime’s take on “Poor Things” For a little extra treat, listen to the end to hear a delightful rendition of an old timey song. Songs featured in Episode 131…
Episode 130 Notes: February 9th? Not likely. This is the last of the “pre-Italy” podcasts. Hopefully I will be able to get these out faster than one per month. Anyway, as part of a little “Sunday Morning Surprise” we discuss the subversive nature of both Tele-Tubbies and a certain NFL power couple, the majesty of AntsCanada, and the shining gem of the internet: Elita Harkov. Music Featured in…
Ok. Sometimes a podcast lingers too long, and you just need to get it out there and over with. I meant to put this out about a month ago, but got waylaid by a work trip, disease, and a weeklong internet outage (all of the above to be discussed in Eppy 131). Podcast Constipation….. On the other hand, I butcher the Hungarian language and give my impressions of Cats (the musical the movie) and why it…
Episode 128 notes: Our long awaited, long overdue “Best of 2023. This one got delayed out because of some last minute work travel and also us being kind of fuckups We also hit on the Wham and Hypgnosis docs, the Spitting Image Muppets, and list etiquette. Spiritual Cramp and Upchuck are reviewed. Find us at: www.trashsouthstreet.com trashsouthstreet@gmail.com Facebook.com/TSS Apple Music Amazon…

Sexbots” – NOBRO “Santa Claus” , Thee Headcoatees We also discuss Stevi Daft Find us at: www.trashsouthstreet.com trashsouthstreet@gmail.com Facebook.com/TSS…
Lou deals with plumbing issues and Jaime deals with broken arms. Audio for this one may be a bit wonky due to the industrial fans blowing in the background. I did my best to clean it up. Lou listens to the remake of Dark Side of the Moon so you don’t have to (although you really should give it a listen; it’s pretty darn good) and we give early impressions of the Thurston Moore Bio. Stick around…
Episode 125 Notes: Only a month late for Halloween, the HARROWING REASON is revealed! Well, not really. I got Covid and it messed up (and continues to mess up) the schedule. As a consequence, this podcast reflects our 7 year Anniversary!!!! Yay us! I am sure we will acknowledge it down the line. Anyway, we talk about Open City, Cherry Glazerr, Olivia Rodriguez, and Pumpkin Guts (the band, not the…
Originally recorded on 8/19, we had to shift some things around to try to hit a release date for a review. This didn’t quite work out for reasons that will become evident in the next episode (125), but we are here now. And it’s a shame, because we never had a chance to talk about the (very excellent) QOTSA show: Also, Samantha Fox, a Gwar Ted Talk, Johnny Football, and some twin PP drama. What are…
Episode 123 Notes But really, it’s Episode 124. We talk about MUSIC. A shocking amount of music, but also Jaime’s moon time, time travel, Jaime’s newfound fandom of both a Ke$ha and a Tay-Tay, and a topic! (Song of the summer). Music discussed includes Die Sexual, Paint it Black, Be Your Own Pet, A Giant Dog, Speedy Ortiz and Sonic Youth. We get into a big discussion on Skating Polly (Chaos County…
A (very) brief history of Holly Golightly A (very) brief history of Jerry Lee Lewis (and Mercury Records was correct) A (very) brief recap of Blobfest And a science lesson or two A bit of a peek behind the curtain here. When I (Lou) perform my editing sweep of the audio, I typically take some notes so I can construct some semblance of a summary. And sometimes those notes gel, and sometimes they…
Episode 121 notes It seems like an eternity since we last posted. In that time Jaime went to the Cure, an evil mime murdered bad guys in Gotham City, and RIP Netflix (discs). We get into The Dead Milkmen, Jeffrey Lee “Gun club Guy” Pierce, King Gizz, Beach House, Sonic Youth, and the always amazing QOTSA. Songs featured in Episode 121: “Devil’s Pool” – Beach House “Motor Spirit” and “Witchcraft” –…
If you like recaps of 90’s B vampire movies starring 80’s sitcom stars, then this is the one to listen to. Also, the merits of laudanum use and the questionable politics of Tweety Bird. The titular song mentioned in the “Embrace of the Vampire” segment is “One Desire” by Claudia Kalleem. There doesn’t seem to be a lot on her aside from contributing or acting to a few movies, most notably “Phat…
Look, sometimes you go way too long without putting out a podcast because you decided to remodel your bathtub (check it out at www.trashsouthstreet.com). There is an update on the bee situation, and the wisdom of selling ninja stars to children. We also take to the opportunity to finally get BoyGenius out of our systems.. In addition to BoyGenius, We talk about Tamar Aphek, Militarie Gun, Julie…
Episode 118 Notes: A pant-load of stories, plus a summary of the Tennessee Williams super plot, Veruca Salt, the concept of a “Mind Tummy”, Judy Bloom, and other such nonsense. We hint at a new topic (TSS Play List). If you have a song, send it to us and We’ll add it. This will get pushed in the next few. Music featured in Episode 118: “Psychic Dance Routine” – Scowl “Hail Mary” – Skating Polly We…
Episode 117 Notes In this episode, one of the cohosts reveals a DARK SECRET. Also, everyone has been busy working and living life.

Episode 116 So much time has passed since the last one, and I think we finally might be past the “crazy” energy of the last few podcasts. Jaime reports on Sara Silverman, and Lou talks about his Instagram comment hobby and an unsatisfactory story arc regarding recent concerts. Musically, we talk about “Good Bison”, “Movie Club” and “The Arrivals” Songs Featured in Episode 116: “Bottle Song” – The…
Episode 115 Notes: We dive into the perils of Wine Drinking, Liz Phair, Jaime’s hat, and why Lou doesn’t go to later shows. We also write some primo fan fiction on the spot about an electric rat and our most “thirst trappy” president. The thought of it still makes me feel a little sick to the tum-tum Most importantly, We discuss a book that has been mentioned several times on this podcast: “Sweet…
Episode 114 Notes Ahhhh January, when a podcasters thoughts turn to “Best of” lists And that is what we do! We talk about yours and ours, as well as the usual nonsense. A little different in that we don’t talk about any new music. Instead, we both feature bands we are recently into. Jaime talks about Albert Hammond Jr (Francis Trouble), and Lou seized on the opportunity to talk about the very…
Episode 113 note: This one had an…odd energy. It’s the only way I can describe it. It’s the holidays, so I guess we are all in a weird mood. Give it a listen and let me know if it is just me. Also odd because in that we only feature audio from one of the bands we discuss (Specifically “Hide” by Secret Shame). Both the OSEES and Sharon Van Etten are excellent, but neither let themselves to concise…
Episode 112 notes Lou has a story about the election Jaime has a case of the sleepies…… And somewhere in there we run down the cast of “From Dusk till Dawn” We review Punitive Damage, Abraxas, Beach Rats, and Drug Couple, and discuss the songs that make you cringe. Songs featured in Episode 112 “Big Man” - Punitive Damage “Prismatic” - Abraxas “Clorox Boys” - Beach Rats Find us at:…
Episode 111 Notes: Finally, the Montreal (Non-Story) can be told! Midway through reviews we discuss our “process, and we finish up with sort of a sort of book club where we discuss the many tomes of Erik Larson (among other things). Songs featured in Episode 111 “Cigarette Party” - Busy Weather “Expert in a Dying Field” – The Beths “Circling the Truth” - Guilty Party “BTW” – The Paranoyds…
Episode 110” Spookyween 2022 In which Lou tells the “Tater tot” story, a lesson on the Bicameral mind, and we end the whole thing with a blow by blow recapping of the movie” Hard Candy”. If you haven’t seen Hard Candy (and you totally should), the spoilers begin around 46 minutes. Somewhere in there I mention ”The Yellow Wallpaper” by Charlotte Perkins Gilman. Well worth the read. It’s a horror…
Episode 109 notes This was supposed to be our pre-vacation podcast. A spoiler for future episodes (I was too sick to go, which is also why this one is so dated). In this one, Lou tells the “Toledo Story”, Fellini, “Crimes of the Future”, and Anne Hathaway The film I mention (Toby Dammit) was part of a horror anthology called “Spirits of the Dead”. Basic plot is a washed-up actor (as played by…
Recorded back-to-back with our last episode: Jaime returns form vacay. Lou speaks of THE BEES. What more can you want? Songs featured in Episode 108: “Burning” – Raw Brigade “With U” and “Unholy Affliction” – Soccer Mommy “Fun Guy” – Extra Arms
Episode 107 Notes: In a short episode, we focus 100% of our efforts on Westerner, whose second album (Kali Yuga Kama Sutra) comes out on August 19th.

And get the new album here: http://www.westernerband.com/ https://smarturl.it/Yesferatu Songs Featured in Episode 107: “Yesferatu” – Westerner (duh) Hit us up at: www.trashsouthstreet.com…
Episode 106 Notes: Just as we were about to record our next podcast, Jaime got Covid and we had to switch to a remote. Thus, the audio is a little icky because I had some issues setting up the remote. Songs featured in Episode 106: “Searching for You” - Weird Nightmare “Reality” – Claude “Big Time” – Angel Olson We also touch on Gwar, Egg Drop Soup, and Maya Hawke As always, contact us at:…
This is a quick review of “Endless Afternoon”, the new 7” by La Luz, and a quick impression of the upcoming Paranoyds album (Talk Talk Talk)
Episode 105 Notes: Sometimes life gets in the way and you are a month late posting the podcast. And then you realize that your original notes were deleted. It’s honestly a shame because I feel like this was one of the better ones. I can barely remember recording this, however, and may just be thinking of an especially tasty snack. As memory serves, we get into a discussion regarding the (non)…
