Episode #146 – Consider Our Knowledge Podcast, The Lazy Waves,...

A podcast about podcasts? Good god, it’s some sort of paradox this week on Soundwaves when we chat with some fine folks of the local podcast community. We also listen to some jams from local alternative group, The Lazy Waves and producer DJ RoboRob.

– Whether you enjoy or despise the grandiose musings of National Public Radio, Consider Our Knowledge is here to poke fun at the national media titan.

– The Lazy Waves create poppy, catchy alternative rock via email. Listen to “Tonight (Get On The Streets)” from their 2014 EP, Wavetable.

– Get your groove on with DJ RoboRob’s track “8 Bit Trance Dance,” on this episode of SLUG Soundwaves.

– The nerdy ladies of the Hello, Sweetie! Podcast sit down with SLUG’s equally geeky Gavin Sheehan to discuss podcast politics.
