Brobdingnagian Bards Podcast
Episodes
“Bog Down in the Valley” aka “Rattlin' Bog” is a musical staple of the Brobdingnagian Bards. The Bards also perform it separately. In April, Marc Gunn challenged Andrew McKee to a Bog Off! Andrew narrowly won that competition. They are back next week with an all new challenge. Who will win this month?
Watch the Bog Off live on Wednesday, May 13 at 11 AM CST on the Bards Facebook page.

Dragon Con 2019 is over. It will go down in the record books as one of the best. We share with you our thoughts of this year's convention. Were these the best shows ever at Dragon Con?
As always, this show is brought to you by our Nagians Only Club on Patreon. Sign up today so we can keep entertaining you!
Find out more about our show #46 in the shownotes and more about our music at www.thebards.net.
We are gearing up to launch a Kickstarter for our first studio album in over ten years. How do you stand out in a world where streaming rules? How do you get your music heard?
Years ago, we gave away all of our music on MP3.com. We're gonna do it again. You can now download all of our music for free on Bandcamp.
We're giving it away so that YOU have a compelling reason to talk about us on- and offline.
Here is another update with the Brobdingnagian Minute! The last time we heard the Bards, they talked about how they got started. In this podcast, we not only talk about our first full CD, Marked By Great Size, but we play every single track from it!
Episode #44. This is a VERY long podcast and we are testing the upload limit but I hope you enjoy it.

Brobdingnagian Bards are back for the 10th season of Sherwood Forest Faire. That means were are once again in the same vicinity of each other. That means craziness will ensue.
Andrew McKee is a little hoarse in this episode. That means Marc Gunn gets to make fun of him while Andrew's guard is down.
But it's not all goofiness. In fact, we make a big announcement. We're making a new album! You can learn the new album name...
2019 marks the 20th anniversary of the Brobdingnagian Bards. To celebrate this amazing milestone, we are releasing a LOT of cool new content every month. We have also made this podcast public once again.
Last year, we restarted the band through Patreon. We are creating all new music together. That hasn't been done since 2007. We wanted to give our kind members of the Nagians Only Club on Patreon, a special treat.
However, we r...
Last year, this podcast became patron-only as part of the Nagians Only Club on Patreon. That is now changing!
You see, January marked the 20th anniversary of the Brobdingnagian Bards. It seemed a shame to hide all of this great content from Nagians around the world. So we asked them if we could make this podcast public once again. They resoundingly said, "YES!"
We are very pleased to share this show with you. Once a month, ...
Welcome to show #40 of the Brobdingnagian Bards Podcast. Yup. This is the last one. In our public feed. That’s because we have decided to relaunch A Brobdingnagian Minute into a monthly podcast exclusively available for our new Nagians Only fan club on Patreon!
The Brobdingnagian Bards are back with a brand new Patreon page. We’re gonna start working on a new album. Plus, we’ll share stories behind the songs, rants and raves, chat ...
We’re gonna step back in time to see how our first CD, “Marked By Great Size” came to be. You’ll hear never-before-told-stories about the how we rolled with the punches and made lemonade…figuratively speaking. Plus, you’ll enjoy some music from our first official album as well as music from the atrocity that we tried to hide…
As Andrew requested, here’s the track listing for Marked By Great Size: None But A Harper (from The Last Un...
Andrew and I are performing separately at the Louisiana Renaissance Festival. We thought it would be nice to record a podcast. But people kept walking in on us. Our Top 5 movie theme was hijacked into a round table of wandering entertainers and a lot of fun.
Special guests: Paolo Garbanzo, Melanie and Melissa of Chaste Treasure, Mandie Kitty Cat Turner, Tom Zadoyko
What’s in this Week’s ShowPhoto by GRHookPhoto.com
As we prepare for our reunion show at Sherwood Forest Faire, wandering through the grounds, we record a podcast for the world to hear!
And our theme is: What you can do with worn out Bards CDs? When they’ve been listened to far too often, rendering them useless for further musical perusal? Here are our suggestions…
10. Coaster! 9. Oriental Star – be a CD ninja! 8. Frisbee 7. Mirror 6. Christmas Ornaments 5....
Here’s our improvised podcast while driving to DragonCon 2015!
The first question that raises it’s head is “What is the purpose of a podcast?”
In the past, we’ve done brainstorming, as well as just chatting about what’s going on with our lives. A behind-the-scenes tour, if you will – or a self-covering band!
So how do you create a podcast for a band that only meets once or twice a year? Do we just go for the general chatting about ...
Brobdingnagian Bards were officially invited to DragonCon this year. We’re already planning this year’s shows. One of which is a Sunday evening Hobbit Drinking Songs show. The show is currently scheduled for 10pm in the Augusta Ballroom in the Westin. Every year, we like to change things up, doing something new and exciting. Last year, we added a fun arrangement of “Seven Drunken Nights”, hobbit-style.
This year, I was thinking abo...
It’s time for another edition of the podcast formerly known as A Brobdingnagian Minute, now known as Brobdingnagian Bards Podcast. Marc got an itch to do another Bards podcast. So he crank called Andrew and now you get another show. We’re kinda hoping to release this podcast on a more regular basis. In order to do that and not bore you to death, we NEED Your FEEDBACK.
What would you like to hear us talk about? What interests you? H...
Let us start with apologies to everyone who got excited about yesterday’s April Fool’s joke. Yes, it was another bad joke brought to you by Brobdingnagian Bards. I don’t know if it was as bad as 2001 or 2002 when we told everyone we were breaking up the band… but it sounds like it was close. So our apologies. We are NOT reuniting, except at DragonCon.
That said, we have a bunch of fun Bards news where you can hear some of the legi...
