The Ketchup

11/05/2017

Ketchup fans! A new era has begun...welcome to my new podcast, a sort-of prequel to the Ketchup, called "Let's Get It On"...I think you're gonna like it! xxG

(SERIES PREMIERE) When Victavius St. Velour (Gary Anthony Williams) -- the super-smooth host of 'Silky Beats & Satin Sheets' -- goes missing, it's up to swag-challenged home brewing enthusiast Gideon Spottswood (Steve Benaquist) to fill in. Featuring songs by The Weeknd, Ginuwine, and Heatwave.

If you lack the youth, funds, &/or wherewithal to make it out to Coachella...or even wade through the hours of wall-to-wall live coverage, this week's Brooklyn Vegan on Blog Radio (XM35) culls down all of the first weekend to that one song you like from each band. Replays tonight at 9pm on the West Coast http://www.siriusxm.com/siriusxmu/weeklyschedule

Just chatting w a friend about this minor power pop masterpiece. SO great! Cute performance by the gal playing the titular character. Late great Faye Hunter on bass. Were we ever so young?

from 1987's "It's Alright"

This baby is so metal. 🤘

One of rock's all-time great drummers and all around good guys has passed away. If Scott Miller was the brains behind Game Theory, Gil Ray was its beating heart. That's him on the right, circa Big Shot Chronicles. I'm glad I got to know him if only a little as FB friends. Condolences to his lady Stacey, and all true Gamesters across the globe.

Every year I think the world is going to run out of sweet jams, so it's always such a relief when the first favorite new song of the year presents itself. The charms of this one are modest, but undeniable

Good list. Any obvious oversights?

The great British blues-rock stars may have flaunted their studied virtuosity, but this quintet of San Jose snots stripped R&B down to a rude, rudimentary swagger – and they also wore Dracula capes. Garage rock doesn't get more essential than the title track, with swaggering verses offset by periodi...

I always find the Song Exploder podcast fascinating and inspiring, but when it's about a song I totally adore? Buddy, Christmas just came early!

She explains that the track was “a nod” to Bowie

You never hear pre-'Pyromania' Def Leppard much anymore. Too bad. Photograph and Pour Some Sugar etc are all fine n' good, but they seem more like glossy technical achievements. This jam has the Stuff of Life!

Nailed it. I love "Little Digger" so much...

There’s more to Liz Phair than one classic album; in fact, inconsistencies and all, she’s one of her generation’s best singer-songwriters.

Hi guys, Eric from The Nerdologues here again! I don't think I've dropped by the Ketchup page with this show yet, but it's the one that kind of took the Ketchup's spot on our schedule while Gary works on a sweet new show -- it's called BLANK CASSETTE and it's a podcast about mixtapes! And, as it happens, this week Gary's on the show to share a mix of his own! So if you missed The Ketchup, maybe this will tide you over until Gary's new show hits the internet airwaves!

This week, podcaster and friend of the Nerds Gary Lucy shares an uber-mix that covers all the mixmaxing stages of his life!

Can anybody help me sort out my feelings for this jam? I can't decide if I love it or hate it. Kinda boring and rudimentary, yet somehow still so compelling. How say you? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9FILAkKinQ

Mostly all you need from that Dead tribute box...

It wasn't always cool to like the Grateful Dead. There was a period there, in the '90s especially, where Deadheads were often regarded as deadbeats, clueless hippies who were clinging to some sort of departed ghost -- all while the rest of the world grunged out or glammed up, basically turning anyth...

I've always heard the Tragically Hip are really good, but I could never get past their dumb name. But I'm not mad at this https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kqD_3g9uSsE

i do not own this song, so enjoy.

Chapter 48! It's the end of the road as we know it.

From Eric and The Nerdologues, thanks to all who followed along or checked back in with this wonderful show. It will now live forever on nerdologues.com (or at least until some EMP wipes out most global technology).

This is it, folks. One last rock block. The end comes for us all, I guess.

Talkin' bout our Jenny-ration! http://www.avclub.com/article/jenny-lewis-new-band-has-profane-name-and-album-ou-238738

It’s been nearly two years since Jenny Lewis released her most recent solo album, The Voyager, but should you be craving new tunes from the former Rilo Kiley frontwoman, Lewis has you covered. Nice As F**k—the new band she formed with The Like’s Tennessee Thomas and Au Revoir Simone’s Erika Forster—

Chapter 47! Only one week to go, and Del's never been in a worse spot. Who's this new DJ and what's up with these songs??

https://www.nerdologues.com/podcasts/ketchup/episodes/chapter-forty-seven

Limp Bizkit. Kid Rock. Fergie. What is going on??

16/06/2016

Chapter 46! Del is in big big big trouble. Anybody out there want to help?

https://www.nerdologues.com/podcasts/ketchup/episodes/chapter-forty-six

Remember all that talk about escape last week? Unfortunately, it looks like Del's not going anywhere. Help?

09/06/2016

Chapter 45! There's a bunch of songs about getting away here, but Del may not be so lucky.

https://www.nerdologues.com/podcasts/ketchup/episodes/chapter-forty-five

Del dreams of escape, but the reality is he might be done for. Hopefully the music won't stop.

Chapter 44! Back to Redmont, back to the bunker. Uh oh.

https://www.nerdologues.com/podcasts/ketchup/episodes/chapter-forty-four

Del's trapped in the space where it all began. Might as well pass the time with some good music.

26/05/2016

Chapter 43! It's like Bon Jovi sang: Who says you can't go home? (Note: Bon Jovi does not appear in this episode)

https://www.nerdologues.com/podcasts/ketchup/episodes/chapter-forty-three

Del returns to his original base of operations, which gets him wondering about the future of his show. Enjoy the rock while it lasts?

19/05/2016

Chapter 42! Man, running errands gets tougher after the fall of civilization.

https://www.nerdologues.com/podcasts/ketchup/episodes/chapter-fourty-two

It's not easy to get around in the post-apocalypse, and Del might have just stranded himself some place he doesn't want to be. Let's shield ourselves with great music!
