And now, we come to the final, and the most lost, of all the Lost Episodes of Crush On Radio. Myke needs no introduction if you’re into podcasts, and he was interested in guesting as soon as Patrick guested. Scheduling this one was hard, especially with his crazy schedule—Myke was still working full-time—and the whole time zone difference thing. This one was also marred with some nasty recording problems, and then, the podcast network kinda fell apart. Well, it’s here now, for the world to hear…

About a year after I wrapped up Crush On Radio, Myke did his own podcast run asking people about their favorite albums. And he did it better than me, too.

Jeff was the first person to do something I’d hoped to do a lot of with this version of Crush On Radio… talk about an album he didn’t like… albeit still an influential album on his life. Plus some awesome musical connections tied with Jeff’s career as a musical researcher, archivist, and other cool things.

Far from just being one of the original co-hosts of Crush On Radio, Matt’s had a huge impact on me and the music I listen to. I was so happy to have him on the show again, especially since he wanted to talk about DEVO, the band we probably both adore most. So, yes, it’s a lot of nerding out about a very nerdy band, but this was still a fun episode to do.

Ben Alexander was the guy who ran Constellation.fm and helped shepherd the short Crush On Radio third season into the world. This was a fascinating talk on how discovering music changed, along with some weird musical synchronicity in our lives. Ben seems to have disappeared from the Internets, but if you’re out there, say hi. You’re missed.

Patrick Rhone is literally the nicest man on the Internet. As soon as Episode 1 dropped, he asked me to be on the show, and how could I say no? He is a man of incredible depths, and he loves musicals. I’m super grateful for Patrick… in general, really, but agreeing to do a podcast with me was just the cake.

In 2014, I tried to revive Crush On Radio as a one-on-one interview show. I produced six episodes for Constellation.fm, interviewing a few of my favorite Internet people about the albums that shaped their life. Sadly, due to a number of outside factors, I had to cancel the show, and the archives fell off the web, not long after. Two years later, I’m finally bringing them back online, to sit along the two seasons of Classic CoR with Matt and Andrew.

The first episode was my proudest moment: a chat with the legendary Merlin Mann about an album that changed his life: The Meadowlands by The Wrens. It was an incredible experience, and I’m happy to share it with you all again.
