Episode 7 (09/03/2019) – The band takes a ride down I-10 to pick up out the vinyl copies of NUMBER FIVE from New Orleans Record Press and talks about Lance’s song “Spaceman.” We discuss tardigrades on the moon, Buzz Aldrin punching a dude in the face, “secret rich people space,” the technology behind braces and Leon tells how he couldn’t wait for the Apollo mission to be over.

During the first space launch, Leon (middle, bottom row) was attending the Robert St. John School for Famous Broadcasters where students could go help cover this historic event. Leon chose to stay back at the school so he could get off earlier and “drink some ‘Ripple.”
Bonus:
Leon also thought he saw the Grateful Dead at the Dairy Queen, but maybe not.
