New Countdown: I've Been Thinking Too Much (Help Me)

The Struts

The title of this post, in case you were worried, just comes from my having had that part of that song in my head when I was typing it. Not a cry for help, just a bit of sing-a-long!

It's a VERY exciting show this week, I think you'll agree, so I'll let you get to it! Enjoy!

Well we are cooking with grease over here at the AFDAT10C. Two podcasts out in less than a week? Are you kidding me? I am not kidding you. And they're good. And the music is good. And dare I say, the intros are good, too!

So I hope you enjoy the episode in all it's silliness. Believe me, things get a little silly in this one :)

New Countdown: A Joke So Nice, I Used It Twice (and Now Thrice!)

I'm a little late in posting this one because my sister graduated from college this weekend! Isn't that nuts?1 Remember when she graduated from High School? I was already 2 years into doing this podcast and I did a flashback countdown of songs from the first week of June from the week *I* graduated from High School. If I'd been on my game this week, I would have done a similar Flashback Countdown for this week in 2005, when i graduated from College. Oh well! Live and learn :)

I just realized that I missed celebrating the 6th anniversary of the podcast. It's crazy that I've been doing this for more than half a decade!

New Countdown: Hundreds of Millions of Times

The Strumbellas

It's the last countdown of April and I am ready for summer to start. The other day I thought about setting up my Song of the Summer spreadsheet, but then I was like, "Dude. Just be patient."

I think these songs are great and I hope you enjoy it as much as I do. What songs are you loving on the countdown these days?

New Countdown: The Stone Temple Pilots of the 2010's

I wonder when the last band with more than 5 members was one the top ten. Could it have been recently and we just didn't know it? How many people are in Of Monsters and Men? [Looks it up] ok it looks like they DID have 6 members but one of them left to go back to school. So, maybe First Album OMAM was the last time? I only mention it because it feels like we've had a lot of duos recently.

Enjoy this new episode of THIS podcast and then head over HERE and listen to a new podcast that I just launched with my best friend Erin!
