Nick Only Knows (What Andy Would Do) (To the tune of "God Only Knows" by The Beach Boys) [Verse 1] They play with the heat, it’s more than just fun, When Nick hits a note, Andy comes undone, If ever they part, they’d still feel the pull, Nick only knows when Andy gets full. [Chorus] Nick only knows what Andy would do, When they’re together, oh girl you'll feel it too, If you should ever watch, you’d feel it too, Nick only knows what Andy would do. [Bridge] (Saxophone melody) (Musical interlude with vocal harmonies) [Outro] Nick only knows, Nick only knows, Nick only knows what Andy would do. {written by our cumputer overlords at chatgpt} We're psyched to partner up with our buddies at Volume.com!

In the heart of countless battles, where the roar of conflict and the weight of sacrifice formed the backdrop of their days, two Denver musicians forged a bond that would outlast the scars of tour. From the stage to the afters (and the Corey Feldmans that came between), a friendship formed between Andy & Nick that was both refuge AND beacon. In other words: we're talking drugs and drama, people. Aaaaaand on the Interview Hour, Slightly Stoopid joins the fray as Andy sits down with multi-instrumentalist, Miles Doughty! With vibes so smooth, you'll feel like you're sitting on a sandy beach drinking a tasty cocktail... Or are you, really?? Welcome to the MATRIX, yall.

Brent's got the comedy pedigree, the resume, and the know-how to steer Andy and Nick back on course. Does he microdose psilocybin? You betcha! We're here to learn how to navigate the seas of entertainment without getting sucked under by the Kraken of burn-out, or over taken by the Blue Beard of drug overdose. And watch out for the Johnny Depp of Depression! (deppression, clinically) Boy, is this metaphor strained or what! Keep those post-show mushrooms flowing, people.

In which the chaotic union of Frasco and Gerlach - best friends and podcasting degenerates - serve up their brand of unfiltered & unwashed, RAW convos. Vegan & Keto friendly, too! These two are closer than a pair of sweaty underwear after a wild night out (and just as messy). And on the Interview Hour, Andy has a plucky chat with Kyle Tuttle, banjo maestro from Golden Highway!
