Still reeling from Spotify's boneheaded decision to erase The DOD45 Show podcast at the top of 2025 (seriously... who pulls that kind of digital arson on an art & interview show this dope?!), we’ve clawed our way back with the all-new, hotter-than-a-gas-station-rollerdog SERIES 8! And we’re lighting it up with none other than the legendary, vinyl-slinging cyclone that is... MR. DIBBS.

He’s a turntablist.
He’s a chaos conductor.
He once fought a tornado and lived to eat a taquito about it.

From wild tour tales with Atmosphere and Sage Francis to poop quarters and a DJ-themed Bradley from another galaxy, this episode barrels straight into the storm—then back again with a tray full of Cincinnati Reubens.

🌀 Tornado survival stories
🎛️ Split Tapes & subliminal ArtByTai cameos
💩 Upper-deckers and Mayo strategies
🎢 Building the Mr. Dibbs theme park
👂 Thoughts on crowd-thought-reading headphones
👀 A new "Dibs" segment no-one asked for
🌭 Izzy’s Reuben sandwiches & Northside Yacht Club artery-clogging bliss
💡 Deep dives, dumb jokes & absurdity in full effect

💥 Special shout to Strange Famous Records & DJ Zole for keeping us laced in love and Dish theme music.

🧠 Did you know? Dibbs once created a full DJ set using only cassette tapes and toys for a live show with Doseone in a basement gallery in Minneapolis. Yeah. This dude doesn't just bend rules—he melts 'em on hot wax and scratches 'em backwards.

🎞️ RECOMMENDATION STATION:

🎬 Movie Pick: They Cloned Tyrone
Directed by Juel Taylor (his debut!), this one's a genre-mashing masterpiece.
Think Get Out meets Sorry to Bother You with a little Truman Show weirdness.
Starring John Boyega, Jamie Foxx (who steals the show), and Teyonah Parris, it’s a conspiracy-laced sci-fi comedy wrapped in blaxploitation brilliance.
Themes of identity erasure, cultural manipulation, and fried chicken chains with sinister motives... all soaked in neon grime and dusty soul.

🎧 Tai’s Song Share:
🎵 “Me and Jesus the Pimp in a ’79 Granada Last Night” – The Coup
Written by the incomparable Boots Riley, this track plays like a mini-film—gritty, funky, tragic.
A haunting tale of childhood trauma, religion, revenge, and survival set to one of the most gut-punch grooves of the ‘90s. From their 1998 classic Steal This Album.
🔥 Fun Fact: Pam the Funkstress once stopped a show to defend the group’s road manager from a man with a gun. Real life. Real loyalty.

🎧 Adrienne’s Song Share:
🎵 "Garage Palace” by Gorillaz ft. Little Simz"
A grimey electro banger featuring the razor-sharp bars of Little Simz.
This one's relentless—a sonic assault of future garage with Simz punching every beat like it owes her money.
Perfect for headbanging in a sentient car wash.
