Travis's good friend Amanda Hallbeck has come on to the show! The topic of discussion is Elliott Smith's debut solo album Roman Candle from 1994. Elliott Smith played something of a role in bringing Amanda together with her husband and she has come to tell us that story. She also has come to grapple with the emotional devastation that Elliott's music can induce. Fun!
Chris Deary is back! And he's here to talk about an album that is really important to him and to a lot of people-- Jeff Buckley's Grace.
Another episode, another seminal album from the era, and we're over a hundred episodes in. This time Dustin Lince has returned to talk all about Fugazi and their monumentally influential 1993 album In On The Killtaker. Dustin and Travis also talk about their event called Hunger Strike on Saturday, December 13th at the New Way Bar in Ferndale, Michigan. It's a free night of 90s covers, including an acoustic set from Travis-- just bring nonperishable food and/or warm clothing to donate!
Cultural writer AJ DiCosimo has returned to the show to discuss one of the biggest hip hop albums of all time-- Illmatic from Nas.
It's always a special treat when the show turns its attention to one of Travis's favorite albums from the era. At the show's inception, there were a few albums that were always high on the list, and one by one, they are addressed at '93-'94. And today, it is Rusted Root's turn, as special guest Michael Brennan of the Theodivergent podcast returns to talk their 1994 classic jam band album When I Woke.
After a brief vacation, '93-'94 is back! And so is guest host Christ DeCarlo, who has come with a deep knowledge of and appreciation for the New Bomb Turks and their 1993 album Destroy-O-Boy!! Let's party.
Sean Lowry, cohost of the 2 Brothers Road Trip Radio podcast and brother to regular '93,-'94 contributor Joe Lowry, makes his first appearance here on the show to talk about the 1994 Offspring album Smash and the impact it had on his life.
The show hits a milestone with its 100th episode, so Travis thought it would make sense to bring in his dear friends and cohosts from his longest-running podcast, CInema 9, a movie podcast-- Eric Branstrom and Mike Govier! They talked about the movie Forrest Gump for their 246th episode of Cinema 9, then came over to '93-'94 to talk about the two-disc soundtrack.
There are few people in Travis's life who appreciate Warren Zevon as much as he does, and even fewer who wanted to come on the show and talk about 1993's live album Learning to Flinch. So he did an episode by himself to talk about one of his absolute all-time favorite artists.
Regular contributor and dear friend Morgan Peak has returned to talk about the classic punk rock 1994 album The Good, the Bad, and the Argyle by that seminal East Coast punk band The Bouncing Souls. Technically it's a compilation album of their eps, but whatever.
The show's resident metalhead, Brandon Callahan, has returned to educate Travis and anyone else about Sepultura's 1993 album Chaos A.D.
As a guest who has returned multiple times, Travis's old friend Dave Horning has exercised his privilege to dive into an album a little outside of 1993 and 1994 by looking at Dada's Puzzle, released in the fall of 1992.
It is an episode of rarities as Travis and regular contributor Dustin Lince have a conversation about not one but two albums, and outside the proper confines of 1993 to 1994 as they digest the seminal Jawbreaker albums 24 Hour Revenge Therapy and Dear You from 1994 and 1995, respectively.
Travis's good friend Steve "Laskollywollydodere" Laskowski returns to the show to offer his take on Tom Waits and the 1971 demo recordings released in 1993 called The Early Years Vol. 2
Greg Lazzaro is a friend of Travis's from his Philadelphia days and, more importantly for the show, he is also a Madonna mega-fan. He joins the show (officially) for the first time and it's a joy to hear him gush about his love of this iconic artist and her 1994 album Bedtime Stories.
Travis's brother Judd has returned to the show, this time to get outside the years 1993 and 1994 to talk about one of his favorite albums ever, Hayden's 1995 debut Everything I Long For.
Regular contributor Derek Fern has returned to the show to talk Propagandhi's 1993 debut album How to Clean Everything and he and Travis have a good time doing it.
Eron and Cory Worley are two brothers that Travis has long associated with the band Hum and particularly their 1995 album (that was recorded in 1994), You'd Prefer an Astronaut. So it was extra special to get both old friends on the show to talk about their love of the album and experiences recording at Matt Talbot's studio.
Travis's buddy Christian is back on the show to discuss Debut, the 1993 album from the Icelandic icon Bjork. Then, the fellas play a game called "Goon or Guru?"
A.J. Belmont heeded the call at the end of every episode of '93-'94, this time to do a 1992 album that had a huge impact on the years 1993 and 1994, R.E.M.'s Automatic for the People. Find out more about A.J. at abelmont.com
