Barry, Abigail, and surprise special guest Becky Richey discuss On My Own Two Feet by Granian and sample The One They Call Zoe and A Pale Mosaic from Hops & Grain Brewing (brewed by Austin Beerworks) in Austin, Texas. Hops & Grain no longer has a taproom in Austin, but the two beers we sampled continue to be brewed by Austin Beerworks and are available at certain venues around Austin! Garen Gueyikian (the songwriter, lyricist, vocalist, and primarily instrumentalist behind Granian) co-wrote BOOM BOOM with Teddi Gold, which has been used in multiple commercials, including in an Old Navy commercial from spring 2021. Garen later formed Kill the Alarm. We played Kill the Alarm’s versions of Uncovered and Collide (compare to Granian’s versions of Uncovered and Collide). Abigail entered On My Own into the Abigail Hummel School of Speaking Smartly About Music with a comparison to Survivor by Destiny’s Child (secondarily, I Will Survive by Gloria Gaynor). Becky posed the question of our favorite song that employs the radio static effect. Barry entered Honey Pie by The Beatles (we have officially gone zero episodes without mentioning the White Album!).

Barry had the opportunity to spend some time with the man who introduced him to podcasting, comedian Pete Dominick. For a dozen years, Pete hosted a fabulous public affairs show on Sirius XM Radio. His unique and humorous perspective on current events coupled with his great long-form interviews made this Barry's primary source of news for many years. In October 2019, Sirius XM made the awful decision not to renew his contract, due in large part to his resistance to the rehiring of Steve Bannon as a Sirius XM host.  With nowhere else to turn, Pete started his own daily podcast, relying on subscribers as his sole source of income. Shortly afterwards, the COVID-19 pandemic afforded Pete the opportunity to create a weekly social hangout for subscribers. This quickly became an important means of connection for people isolated during the pandemic. This community quickly became a new group of virtual friends from all across the country. As the world has reopened from the pandemic, many of those newfound friends have met in person. Our podcast has benefited greatly from this community. We have had a number of guests from among the many musicians in this community, and you can spend some time with our new friends, including Jon Carroll, Matt Carlson, and Nick Martino in these episodes: Bonus: A Christmas Day's Eve! Original Songs by Our Friends Bonus: Today (with Jon Carroll) Bonus: R(ank).E.M. Again, Matt Carlson! Bonus: Friends Are Inclusive (Harborcoat & Bell's Brewery) Bonus: Greet the Hummels! Original Songs by Friends of the Pod!

Barry and Abigail had the opportunity to sit down with Dave Zalatoris from the Beer In Front podcast! This episode originally dropped on July 31, 2023. We discussed the origin of the Pops on Hops Podcast, shared some of our favorite albums and episodes, and talked about the Florida beer scene. Most importantly, Barry used his "phone a friend" option to solicit an album from Dave, and he selected "11" by The Smithereens. That episode dropped on September 15, 2023, and you can listen to it here. You can find Dave and Beer in Front on YouTube, Twitter, Threads, and Instagram.

We had the pleasure of joining our friend, and frequent guest, Matt Carlson on the podcast portion of his new project, ⁠What Am I Making⁠, back on March 27, 2023. Matt is a talented musician and songwriter from East Lansing, Michigan, whom Barry met as part of an online community created by Pete Dominick, the host of the ⁠Stand Up With Pete Dominick⁠ podcast. During one of their weekly hangouts, Matt shared the name of his latest band, ⁠Harborcoat⁠. Barry caught the R.E.M. connection, which led to a ⁠Pops on Hops episode⁠ to discuss the album ⁠Joy is Elusive⁠. The outtakes alone from that conversation also led to a ⁠Pops on Hops bonus episode⁠ to discuss Matt's Top Five R.E.M. albums. Matt has also contributed songs to our Christmas bonus episodes in both ⁠2021⁠ and ⁠2022⁠. So, obviously, when Matt asked Abigail and Barry to chat about the Pops on Hops podcast, they jumped at the chance! It is a fabulous discussion of the origin story of the Pops on Hops podcast!
