A true sign of parental love and sacrifice: letting your daughter play Fergie on your podcast.
Dizzy Heights
It’s been…time this show had a leprechaun dance moment. Can’t understand what I mean? You soon will.
Friends of Popdose are the best friends. They have good thoughts about things.
I need to crowdsource my shows more often. My friends stepped up big time this week.
I got an idea and then ran with it…for an hour and 40 minutes.
This is literally The Deb Medsker Show. It’s all about my honey.
Total widescreen pop show this week, and new Simple Minds!
When it takes an hour to come up with a follow-up track to a song…that’s a sign.
In which I come face to face with the fact that I am still ‘Sitting on the Floor Playing with Tapes’ David, and always will be.
In which I rave about a Pernice Brothers song, and then throw Joe Pernice under the bus for being a jerk to the guy on the mixing board at a show.
Thomas Dolby is one of the few people to have enough money to have Oprah killed. Not that he would.
Have you thanked your mother lately? No, seriously, thank your mother.
*Enters ‘Holiday’ into iTunes search bar* Hey, I think I can make this work!
For the first time in this show’s history, I stay in my (’80s) lane.
Fair warning: this week’s show was heavily influenced by “Mad World: An Oral History of New Wave Artists and Songs That Defined the 1980s.”
This week’s show is a love letter to next week’s Summerfest. $13 weekday tickets. That is not a typo.
Five acts from Scotland, and a cover of a sixth Scottish act. And remember, if it’s not Scottish…
I do a set of cover songs that may make the writer of both songs call me a wanker. One can only hope, anyway.
The lesson to be learned here is, don’t say ‘power pop’ to Marshall Crenshaw. Also, don’t call Kerli a Goth. She will hurt you.
Today is Take Your Child to Work Day. I took that one step further.
In which my cat unintentionally makes his Dizzy Heights debut.
If you were a modern rock club rat in the late ’80s, this mix will speak to you.
Vacation, all I ever wanted. Vacation, have to post a show. Vacation, happy birthday to my son.
Welcome to Mope Like Me, the audio book version! Wait, where are you going?
My first request: will you play a melodic pop/prog set? Yes, Yes, I will.
Seven years from the 1990s are represented this week. But you should listen, anyway.
Not gonna lie, this is a strange show, but it all makes sense in the Medskerverse, if you take a step back.
