american in love

good luck with this one.


the podcast went on MUCH longer than we had anticipated, so we were good enough to break it into three separate parts for you. because, honestly, who has a spare hour and a half all in a row to sit and listen to anything? this way, you don't ruin your whole day or your credibility with any friends or family by dedicating such a huge block of time to such an inane enterprise.

(editor's note - we had originally intended to include one song each from both John Elliott's and Johan Wagner's current albums, but were unable due to some minor technical difficulties. we trust they will forgive us, seeing as how they are all about free love, etc., etc.)



on this episode:

- Aaron gives me some pointers about mine and Sweet Tits' upcoming trip to Austin for SXSW. thankfully, none of these tips include the phrase "spit on it first".

- two hippies are introduced to the Star Trek-like world of microphones and computers.

- John Elliott and Johann Wagner aimlessly discuss their respective current albums while munching on fresh moss and tofu jerky.

- everyone misses the brilliance of a haiku about sex with trees.

- i find out that i've been overpaying musicians at the bar.

- Aaron fades in and out of consciousness, and sometimes manages to even participate.

- Sweet Tits and Aaron gush over each other to a sickening degree.

- we catch up on Britney Spears (!) and Paris Hilton. and i think another white chick.

- John and Johann somehow manage to cheat at Black History Month Trivia, despite being unwashed hippies in a mental fog of THC and shrooms.

- i'm a dick to John Elliott. my authority is also questioned, but i don't think the two are related.

- "Morgan Freeman" is not a correct answer to any of the trivia questions, but if you are looking for a drinking game, try taking a shot every time his name is said during this episode.

- each of us comes across as at least a LITTLE bit racist.

- we briefly touch on the topic of domestic violence at the HWC headquarters. i suggest that everyone shut up before i have to shut them up. they shut up.

currently on the white board behind the bar: wa. ta. ta.


many thanks again to John Elliott and Johann Wolf-Wagner. Please be sure to occasionally check their respective websites and go see them perform near you. they will accept most any form of payment, including tofu, macrame plant hangers, and/or adjustments to their auras. as always, send your questions, comments, and suggestions to hotwatercornbreadblog@gmail.com. may god have mercy on your souls.


i'm on it.

  1. Hey Dave,

    Why don't you learn to speak into the mic, instead of just making snarky comments from (what seems to be) across the room.

    Other than that, pretty good.

  2. you are a dick to john elliot. next time if there are tech difficulties while musicians are visiting, make them sing. it can be like HWC Idol.

    also, you're funnier when you're drunk.

  3. i don't know whether to take that as a compliment or not. i do know that the dogs most likely ARE "shit-eaters".

    and no worries. i won't be suing. HWC is not litigious. but you have now left yourself open to the possibility of a jump-kick to the supersternal notch.

  5. firstly, i am pretty sure you had to look up "supersternal notch". like, 80% sure. secondly, my dog is not a shit-eater, but under the right circumstances, say, at fossa's sister's house, he could easily be swayed. i'll let you know after i visit her.

  6. clearly, if i got it wrong, you can rest assured that i did not look it up. and, goddammit, i knew it might have been suPRA instead of suPER. but i decided to gamble. and lost. lost big.

    as to looking at the website? three words: i'm on it.
