Pod Like a Hole

The Pod Like A Hole Holiday Spectacular 2019

You know, it's lovely weather for a sleigh ride together, while listening to a bonus episode of Pod Like a Hole..  

Your boys in "The Hole" may be grizzled, grouches...but a few things slap a smile right across our faces.  NIN, Bowie, and holiday cheer (and our families, paychecks, and days off, to name a few others)   But today Marc, Eric and Steve discuss Bowie spreading some holiday cheer.  Listen as the boys gather around a fire at Steve's house and drink some eggnog, with a kick.  Some drink more than others (damn it, Eric) but either way, we've got your holiday travel entertainment covered.  We discuss Bowie and Bing Crosby's duet "Little Drummer Boy/Peace on Earth" as well as his narration of the classic "Peter and the Wolf." Rankin and Bass specials,, Batman, Nirvana, John C Reilly, Phillip Seymour Hoffman, Shane Black, and much more. 

What Christmas shindig would be complete without us discussing our favorite holiday music memory and our top Christmas movies?!  You'll get it all, right here friends.

A Space Poddity 11: Hunky Dory

It's Godawful small affair. Just 3 chums, hanging out, doing what they do.  Listening to David Bowie's 1971 album "Hunky Dory".  As always, we the boys at Pod Like a Hole, break down this classic record , track-by-track.  We also share the excitement of pop culture and history from 1971, and learn what Bowie and his band were doing in 1971.  

So listen to your Bowie boys leave our mark and lay it all down.  Steven takes us to Mars, Marc gets stuck in Quicksand, and Eric is a kook, as per usual.

In this episode, we discuss David Bowie's penultimate suprise studio album from 2013, The Next Day. In one seamless recording and editing session that went flawlessly, the fine gentlemen discuss where these songs fit in Bowie's catalog and if it is indeed as great as the critics found it to be. We also discuss the music videos that weren't without a little controversy. Join us as Steve breaks out of the Phantom Zone with General Zod, Eric makes five factual errors, and Marc sifts through cryptic transmissions in the hopes of piecing it all together.
