Rewind Episode from Mopes' interview on the DOD45 Show with ArtByTai: S6 Episode 81
This is a rewind episode from episode 25 which originally aired on Jan. 23, 2022. Tai & Adrienne give a 10 minute intro & then the entire episode of the original Mope's interview, including Tai & Adrienne intros & outros plays. Episode deetz: Tai & Adrienne have a discussion with Mopes, formerly known as Prolyphic from the Strange Famous Records fam on this episode of DOD45 . While Tai draws a stag with owls in its antlers, they have a well-rounded chat, which at times is a lot of fun, like Mopes' heartache being a New York Jets fan & Tai's heartache being a Utah Jazz fan. Of course they discuss Mopes' recent EP & his upcoming album release, but the conversation also dips into some discussion about racism, the 80s tv series Alf, Mopes' creative approach when it comes to making music, Madonna's book Sex, accidental deaths on movie sets, Mike Tyson's struggles & growth, working with Chicago emcee Robust, safety precautions on movie sets and they share some of their favorite lyrics. There are many other topics they cover so rather than read it here, just watch the whole episode.

Slugghead on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 80
Holy Smokes it’s episode 80 already! Yay! Episode 80 is a pretty cool milestone. It’s nowhere near as many as a lot of our contemporary podcasts, but it’s also nothing to slouch at. What does it matter, we’re here! And boy am I glad to be here and very excited to share with you our guests for this episode 80 of the DOD45 Show. Our guests on this episode are Slugghead. Brother and Sister duo, Nalei & Soul Taeoalii. Hmmmm. That last names sounds familiar doesn’t it? It should, because that’s our last name and you guessed it, they’re our kids. We’re not having’em on cuz they’re our children though, cuz that would be lame, were having’em on because they have an album coming out on Dec. 29th and they’re performing it live for their album release show on December 28th at The Beehive venue inside of Mark of the Beastro in Salt Lake City, UT. Soul & Nalei join us to discuss their music, their upcoming show and where their inspirations to create, what they call, avant grade music. We realize how bizarre it is to have our children on our podcast to talk about their music, but when you see and hear these two, you’ll realize that “bizarre” equals comfort zone. They have been traveling with us to art shows all across the world since the day they were born and they’ve been witness to more things than most people in the back nine of their lives, so we talk about some of their first & favorite concerts they went, they’re beginnings as musicians and they also have the chance to air their grievances with how we raised them and dragged them all across the country for art shows. It’s a quick episode and I think you’ll be surprised just how fun our conversation is and I also think when you get just a taste of their music you’re going to wish you lived in Utah so you could attend their show on the 28th. For those of you who are in Salt Lake, clear your schedule, get your best costume or night attire together cuz you’ve got an album release party to attend to. Wipe off the dripping mascara, pull the nylons over your head, crack your knuckles and prepare yourself for our artistic family affair on this episode 80 of The DOD45 Show. Peace.

Taryn Manning on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 78

Taryn Manning on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 78
Knock Knock, who’s there, episode 78 of The DOD45 Show! Let’s go! Well, well, well what do we have here? Our guest this week is the delightful, the talented, the bottom-feeding media’s current punching bag, Taryn Manning!!! You heard me right, Taryn Manning. No she’s not a typical DOD45 guest, if there is such a thing, but we linked up with Taryn many months back due to her appearance in Atmosphere’s Okay music video and we’ve been planning to hang with her on the show since then. Who knew she was gonna break the internet with her comments about ‘Gold Juice’ on the Whitney Cummings podcast and who knew she was gonna get caught up in some “very interesting” Instagram drama….not us and certainly not her. But here’s what can be said in this intro, if you’re lookin’ to Troll this episode, by all means, but ya better watch the whole damn episode before you cherry pick. I don’t think you’re gonna have much to troll anyway, because Taryn is an absolute delight and we have an excellent discussion with her, while I draw her a Rhino gettin’ his revenge against the man. We share a mutual love of animals and Taryn mentions in this episode how she relates to the remarkable creature we humans call a Rhinoceros. I had a slew of our typical Sophie’s Choice questions in the cue & an entire line-up of questions I intended to ask of Taryn & probably only got to one of’em…What does that mean? That means, it was such an organic and interesting conversation that I didn’t have time to get to any of those questions, however Sage Francis did drop in for the Sage’s Social Media Lurk to ask Taryn about a social media post from 2012, cuz all you bottom feeders out there have lurked her current social media ad naseum, but Sage uncovers something that leads to a conversation with Taryn about Doin’ a number 2, dropping’ a deuce, laying’ pipe, laying bricks, aka pooping, a thing most all of us do but none of us made a mini-series out of like Taryn did. I also introduce an old game from when I was a kid Called MASH, and we tell Taryn’s future in an alternate life. IF your’e a fan of Taryn, I think you’re really gonna enjoy this episode & if you’re a troll or someone unfamiliar with Taryn, I think you’re gonna enjoy the episode just as much. A lot of random chat but we get to learn some other interesting things about Taryn through our Dish segment, asking Taryn of her Firsts, Worsts and Favorites. So grab a notepad, take some nails to all your leftover scratch-offs, kneel before the telly, have a sip of the Green Juice and enjoy this episode 78 of The DOD45 Show with Taryn MAnning.

Lisa Wallen on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 77
Why did the DOD45 Show cross the road? To get to episode 77 you nitwits!….Lookie what we have here. Finally! I’ve been wanting to have stand up comedians as DOD45 guests forever now, and it’s just our luck we landed one this week with our guest, comedian, content creator, Twitch streamer & self-described Weeb, Lisa Wallen!!! We have a very satisfying chat with Lisa, covering a plethora of things, including Jimmy Carr’s invitation to audience heckling, an old Madea joke of Lisa’s that prompted a shocking response from an audience member, her opinions on comedy today and comedy from the 90s, which she would rather visit on vacation, The Mona Lisa or The Great Wall of China and which celeb she’d rather have a date with out of Charlie Sheen in Wall Street or Leonardo Di Caprio in Wolf of Wall Street of which she begrudgingly chose one. You can expect some laughs, and you can expect we talk about anime and her recent trip to Japan, but you probably never imagined we also have conversation over people like Lee Majors, Lee Trevino, Lisa Simpson, Lisa Loud, who the fuck is Lisa Loud, Bruce Lee and Jet Li and how do you think Lisa answers the question if she’d rather be in a book club or a biker club? You’ll have to watch to find out. If you’re a fan of comedy, if your a fan of anime, if your a fan of Twitch streaming, what the hell am I getting at, if you’re a fan of our show, then slap some duct tape over your mouth, slip some tooth picks in your eyelids, dim the house lights, release whatever you have left in your guts now, so you don’t project it out of your non-duct-taped hole during this episode and enjoy our discussion with the hilarious and lovely Lisa Wallen on this episode 77 of The DOD45 Show.

Mugs & Pockets on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 76
Whoa, whoa, whoa it's episode 76 of the DOD45 Show and our guests this week are Mugs and Pockets. Made up of Scarlet Monk & Soliloquists of Sound emcee, Swamburger. They've stopped in with us to have a good time, but also to promote some recent releases including Scarlet Monk's delightful album Labyrinthine and their debut album as a duo The Adventures of Mugs and Pockets. As per usual on the DOD45 we just chat it up with our guests allowing for our candid conversations of often random topics, to give you a sense of who they are as people and as artists. Some of the random names and topics to come up in our discussion are Scarface, David Letterman, David Bowie, Sonny & Cher, John & Yoko, Thelonious Monk, Hieronymus Bosch, Brooke Shields, Mel Brooks, The Monkees and Josie & the Pussycats. Obviously we discuss more than that, but you'll just have to watch the episode to hear it all. And what will be the answer of the Sophie's choice question that involves Bob's Burgers and Bob Ross? Your guess is as good as mine. Sage Francis drops in with a poignant question for the Sage's Social Media Lurk segment, that opens up a discussion about routes of promoting, think flyer canvasing, to promote live shows and together we wonder what the future holds for that. Mugs & Pockets are an ever evolving balance of experience, stylistic prowess, and genuine expression of sonic art that inspires and rouses dusty hearts....Now doesn't that sound tasty? So loosen up that corset, put out that stink of a cigar, trim up them nostril hairs, and roll up your sleeves to dig in on this episode 76 of the DOD45 Show with Mugs & Pockets. Peace.

Mestizo interview on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 74

Mestizo interview on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 74
As Scroobius Pip would say, "welcome, welcome, welcome"… On this episode 74 of The DOD45 Show we welcome our guest Mestizo. He’s an underground rapper of the Machina Muerte family and the other half of one of my current favorites, A7PHA….a group that I’m willing to call a Super-Duo, of which Mestizo shares emcee duties with the legendary Doseone. We have a nice chill conversation with 'Stizo, talking’ bout A7PHA’s recent release, entitled Many Headed, (a brilliant EP). We also briefly chat about his coming from a long lineage of gangsters, including a gangsta grandma and he tells us a chilling experience he personally had with the spirit world. We also learn that Mestizo has a huge collection of quote, unquote “old-man” clothes and he tells the tale of a time he was on tour with Mopes and he told a Texas patrolman that they were a christian rap group that did rap for Christ to avoid getting a ticket. We have the utmost respect for anyone who has aligned themselves with our show, ostensibly leading into discussions of the deftness of Doseone and how lucky we all are, as listeners, to have the return of A7PHA. We also get to learn a lot more about Mestizo through The DOD45 Dish segment, with answers to Mestizo’s Firsts, Worsts and Favorites. All of that,plus a handful of Sophie's choice questions siting names like The B-52s, B-Real, Michael Rapaport as Remy, Minnie Driver, Faith Hill, Corpse Bride, Ray Charles, Jeremy Piven, Jeremy Renner and a handful of others. We hit it off real quick with Mestizo, which makes this one of them nice, concise, chill kind of chats. So throw the laundry in the bin, brush off the layers of base, holster your switchblades, line up your lazy eyes and zone in on this episode 74 of The DOD45 Show with Mestizo.

Mr. Dibbs & Brett Fullerton interview on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 73

Mr. Dibbs & Brett Fullerton interview on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 73
You’re never gonna guess who we’re chattin’ with for this episode 73 of The DOD45 Show. When I say never, I mean never….I’ll end the suspense. Our guests this week are James Warren Jones aka The Reverend Jim Jones of the Peoples Temple and the controversially titled artist Edward Theodore Gein aka The Butcher of Plainfield…Say What? That’s gonna make for a dumpster fire of an episode. But in actuality, our guests this week are the dubiously mental Mr. Dibbs & his comrade in innovative musical experiences, Brett Fullerton, together known as INIM E.G. A secretive, but no so complex, moniker for their union. Come to think of it, with the revelation of the actual guests, there's still potential for a dumpster fire. You’re gonna find out. We recorded this discussion the day before Halloween, so in the spirit of the holiday, Dibbs and Fullerton turned up in full garb. On this episode I draw Mr. Dibbs a long anticipated concept of his, which none of his other artist homies were willing to touch, The fabulous Sir Elton John Wayne Gacy. When conversing with a mass murderer & a serial killer, it seemed to be the appropriate time to tackle a concept like this. As far as what to expect from this episode content-wise, it’s anybody’s guess. What I can tell you is that Sage Francis pops in for his Sage’s Social Media Lurk to question Dibbs about the infamous moment that Dibbs recorded himself smuggling a razor onto an airplane under his tongue. And mysteriously we have 2 different people claiming to be Mr. Dibbs, calling in with a question for the Question From Dibbs segment. We always have a great time hanging with these 2, and it’s not nonsense, our purpose is to also promote the 2nd 7” record of the 3 part series that I’ve done the cover art for. Limited presales of this album, of which I cannot pronounce the name of, are now being taken. I’ve had the pleasure of hearing it and it’s as you’d expect. Pure fire. And if I’m being honest, I’m quite happy with how the artwork turned out for the cover. Each album also comes with the 2nd limited edition print that lines up with the print from album 1 and they’ll unite with the 3rd 7” record when it comes out. Like some Voltron shit right there. This is another fun one. We also manage to squeeze in some discussions about people like Dog the Bounty Hunter, Steven Seagal, Steven Tyler, Forrest Gump, Forrest Whitaker, George Clooney, Brett Favre, Brett Michaels, Brad Paisley, Brad Pitt and Dibbs tells us a story about his shop teacher punching him in the face. Boom! Cellophane up your furniture, sharpen the knives, cue the security cams and prep the fire extinguisher for this episode 73 of The DOD45 Show with Brett Fullerton aka Ed Gein & Mr. Dibbs aka Jim Jones.

The Grouch interview on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 72

The Grouch interview on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 72
Well here’s a bit of sweet news! Our guest this week is the Mighty Grouch from Grouch & Eligh and The Legendary Living Legends crew. Here to remind you about the highly anticipated full-album release from Living Legends called The Return, after nearly 18 years since their last album “Classic” and to also promote the upcoming 'How the Grouch Stole Christmas' tour, which this year features The Living Legends, Brother Ali, Reverie & DJ Fresh. For as long as I’ve been listening to the Grouch’s music it’s a real trip to be actually having a conversation with him and creating art for him. On this episode 72 of The DOD45 Show, I draw a Where the Wild Things Are themed piece with some of those pesky toy plastic bowling pins, that will make sense later in this episode. And In the intro, I give a detailed list of my many favorite Grouch tracks spanning over his 20+ years as an underground hip-hop artist on an impressive grind. With the Grouch we also discuss his 10 year stint living on the island of Maui, producing the Slug & Murs’ Felt Album: a Tribute to Christina Ricci, and he shares with us a list of very impressive people that he has the utmost respect for, which includes Erykah Badu, Leon Bridges, Ab-Soul, Slug, Mos Def and more. Sage Francis joins the conversation via the Sage’s Social Media Lurk segment, to ask about a Grouch post from 2012 which leads us into a discussion of what we deem to be proper social media etiquette. And Mr. Dibbs joins us through his segment to ask for clarification regarding a photograph of a gloriously dressed Grouch leering behind Dibbs in the backstage tunnel at the recent Atmosphere Red Rocks show. All of that and other mentions of things like Corey Haim & Corey Feldman, Zion-I, Monty Python, The Thing, Ash’s Severed Hand, Christina Ricci, Christina Aguilera, Jay Electronica, Blackalicious, Vanity, ET, Kris Kros, Brutus the Barber Beefcake, Yo Gabba Gabba and more. It’s a real honor for the Grouch to be lending us his time, so put away that curling iron, light up the mosquito coil, nuzzle up with bucket of buttered popcorn & turn your attention to this episode 72 of The DOD45 Show with The Grouch.

Buddy Peace interview on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 71
We’re in our 70’s with episode 71 of the DOD45 Show & our guest this week joins us from all the way over in England. It ain’t Benny Hill, it ain’t Hyacinth Buckt, it’s someone far more enjoyable, it’s the lovely, Buddy Peace. Buddy is the In-house DJ for Strange Famous records, a megamix, finger drumming phenom and we are buzzing we had a chance to have a chat with him. We get into his music & even get a glimpse of his process in creating his Miles Davis mega mix Sons of Bitches, a complete dismantling & reconfiguring of the albums Bitches Brew & On the Corner in the style of Buddy which results in a phenomenal audible experience. We also play out a scenario of potential actors to play roles in the Buddy Peace Biopic, will it be Nick Nolte or Nick Cage to play Father Peace, will it be Nick Frost or Nick Offerman to play Scroobius Pip & who will get the honor of playing Buddy, Tom Hiddleston or Tom Hardy? Sure that all seem quite maddening, but as always, the DOD45 format allows for that madness to veer into deeper conversations. Kinds of conversations that I won’t give up in this 1 minute promo, but something I can share is that Sage Francis pops in to ask about a 2019 Buddy Peace post that actually has the word “chillax” in it. Hmmmm. Other names & topics to come up in this episode are Ron Perlman, Tom Waits, Themselves, L7, Giant Haystacks, Rob Zombie, Neil Breen, Piers Morgan, Buddy Holly, Lynyrd Skynyrd, The Nuge, The Mighty Boosh, Cecil otter, Married With Children and yes, of course, The Young Ones. We even go on about Francis Ford Coppola’s criminally overlooked film The Conversation. Hey, I’m a dork for smashing beats & British panel shows like 8 out of 10 cats and Taskmaster and having someone on our show who encompasses the skills to provide said smash-beats & also produces a podcast that has had many of my favorite people from said panel shows as guests, was an exciting prospect and Buddy does not disappoint. He’s an absolute pleasure of a guest and you’re gonna see that soon. So shake off the umbrella, pop on the kettle, toss in a tea bag, turn off all emotions & let’s get crackin’ on this episode 71 of The DOD45 Show with Buddy Peace.

Carnage the Executioner interview on The DOD45 Show With ArtByTai - Series 6 Episode 70
It’s episode 70 of the DOD45 show and our special guest for this episode is Carnage the Executioner. A rapper, emcee, beatboxer, music-maker, teacher, you name it. He hails from the Twin Cities and we’re glad to have him on the show. Carnage is a Transformers, the cartoon, fan, so on this episode ArtByTai draws him a Transformers themed piece with a dash of Tom & Jerry, the Flintstones and a tiger. In the intro of this episode, Adrienne & Tai recap their experience at the Atmosphere Red Rocks show thanks to the invite from Mr. Dibbs. And with Carnage, some names to come up are Terrell Owens, Owen Wilson, Woody Harrelson, & Tiger Woods, which also leads to a conversation about how the father figures of The Jacksons, The Williams Sisters & Tiger Woods, shaped the professionals they became & whether that was a good thing or a bad thing. Carnage also reveals that he is in the process of branching out from The Executioner moniker and is moving into the era of Terrell-X. He also discusses that he’s interested in expanding his talents with things like learning how to scratch and even play the guitar. Mr. Dibbs appears on episode to present a question to Carnage from a random old lady off the streets of Cincinnati for the much-anticipated return of the Question from Dibbs segment. They also have a good discussion about one of Tai's favorites, comedian and beatboxer billed as The Man of 10,000 Sound Effects, Michael Winslow and they also discuss Carnage’s experience working with Aesop Rock on the track “Tuff” from Aesop’s The Impossible Kid album. All of that and some revelations during The Dish segment, make this a very satisfying episode. So peel the clumps of hair from your shower drain, scrape the the mold off the curtain, spray off your dogs bodaggets & get yourself situated to enjoy this episode 70 of The DOD45 Show with Carnage the Executioner.

It’s episode 69 of the DOD45 show and our special guest for this episode is DJ Zole. A man who’s been perfomin’ behind the turn-tables since he was only 12 years old or maybe even younger. A respected DJ from the West Coast, a Strange Famous family member, a swell kind of guy with a full-bodied head of hair, & we’re thrilled to have him in as our guest. DJ Zole is a Star Wars mark so on this episode ArtByTai draws him a weasel holding Boba Fett’s helmet in Hamlet’s historic “to be or not to be” pose. You’ll find out why I went with a weasel from a story shared in this episode, and from what we’ve been told, it’s the only place that you’ll this story. We cover the usual why, when, hows and who’s with Zole’s DJ career, and we even get into how his struggle with alcohol nearly ended it all. We chop it up about many random things, but we do go on a Kevin venture with people like Kevin Garnet, Kevin bacon, Kevin hart & Kevin Durant Zole explains his recent dive into the realm of House music and we discuss his latest house album House Flippers. Sage Francis drops in for the Strange Famous Record’s Sage’s Social Media Lurk and shares a wild story about his first experience with Zima’s based off a DJ Zole Instagram post from 576 weeks ago. Zole shares his appreciation with us for our part in the Strange Famous Festival back in June & he also fields some of Tai's ridiculous Sophie’s Choice questions involving The Lost Boys & Last Boy Scout, Dee Snider & D’Angelo and Jay Leno & Jay-Z or is it Jay-Zed? It’s all about having some fun with our guest on The DOD45 Show, and Zole’s super positive manner makes that quite a breeze. So pack up the corn hole, roll up your tick-infested sleeping bags, put away the axe & pull up a log to enjoy this episode 69 of The DOD45 Show with DJ Zole.
