💥 THE DOD45 SHOW: SERIES 8, EPISODE 2 💥

After Spotify did what Spotify does best—deleting our entire podcast account with zero warning at the top of 2025 (shoutout to our overlords at HQ! 🙃)—we’re back with the vengeance of a desert monsoon and the absurd joy of a melted sandwich. This is Episode 106 of The DOD45 Show, and it slaps like a rattail in the wind.

Hosted by Tai of ArtByTai, your favorite ballpoint-wielding host draws his guest LIVE in real-time while deep-diving into chaos, craft, and curiosity. This week’s canvas? @uglyassmarley aka Marley B—Arizona rapper, Broken Complex torchbearer, and self-proclaimed ugliest dude in the crew.

🔥 Things get... unpredictable. We talk time travel, desert childhoods, worst hairstyles (RATT🍑TAIL), creative rituals, studio dream pairings, and a condiment-related breakdown that might change how you view mayo forever.

✨ Did you know?
Marley was discovered by MURS after a Tucson performance in 2013 and was signed to 316 shortly after. His debut with Cash Lansky and DJ Fresh, The Tonite Show, put him on the map. Since then, he’s toured with Demrick, Dizzy Wright, and dropped a wild number of singles and EPs under DJ Hoppa’s Broken Complex. His recent 2024 releases “Bullshit” (w/ Johnny Slash), “Shot Clock” (EP), and “4Ok” (feat. Tommy Will) are all undeniable heaters. 💣

🧂 And yes, Mr. Dibbs hijacks the show mid-episode to pose a question about Miracle Whip, prison inmates, and an unidentified condiment war. Just press play. Don’t ask questions.

🎨 Tai draws Marley live while folding in themes like:

• The Waterboy 🏈

• Sloth from Goonies 🙃

• Donatello 🐢

• Desert rain & weed haze 🌧️🌿

• Alice In Chains & OutKast colliding in sonic space 🎶

🎬 MOVIE RECOMMENDATION:
The Proposition (2005) – Dir. John Hillcoat
A brutal, sun-drenched Australian western. A lawman makes a deal with a renegade: kill your older brother to save your younger one from the noose. Gritty, moral, violent. Just how we like our frontier tales.
▶️ Watch Trailer on YouTube
🎥 Also streaming on most major platforms.

🎧 Adrienne’s Pick:
"Winter’s Going" – DJ Signify ft. Buck 65

🎧 Tai’s Pick:
"Lancinant" – Arat Kilo, Mike Ladd & Nardos Tesfaw
✨ A haunting, hypnotic blend of Afrobeat, jazz, and poetry. It dances through your bloodstream.

🎧 Ceschi’s Pick:
"My Dear Blue" – Zander Schloss
✨ Punk icon turned folk preacher spills guts on acoustic strings. Sad cowboy energy. Yeehaw.
