Insuphishient: Your Daily Phish Podcast Fix
Insuphishient is a Phish podcast hosted by Matt and Nick — a 500-episode series dedicated to exploring the music, culture, and one-of-a-kind universe of the greatest band of all time. With no set setlists and no rules, each episode dives into Phish shows, band lore, and wild theories — blending deep insights with hilarious hot takes. Whether you’re a seasoned fan or just discovering Phish, there’s a spot for you here. Each week follows a groove of its own: Monday: Soundcheck — setting the stage for the week ahead. Tuesday: International Jams — exploring Phish's global impact. Wednesday: World Wide Wednesdays — tracking the latest Phish news from across the web. Thursday: This Day in Phishtory — revisiting legendary shows from the archives. Friday: Big Money Friday — when the chaos ramps up and anything goes. It’s just two friends talking Phish… mostly. Expect the (un)expected.
Episodes
Matt and Nick are back after a week off, and what better way to warm up the mics than with a full-blown Page McConnell birthday celebration episode. Yes, the Chair-"Birthday Boy" of the Boards himself just leveled up, and Insuphishient is here to (barely) hold it together in his honor.
Matt opens with a heartfelt tribute that gets derailed by a tangent about yacht rock. Nick insists Page invented jazz in 1997. Neither can ...
Nick and Matt will be back this weekend to celebrate Page’s birthday! But for today here is a classic International Jams. So good we almost had to call it international James! Matt sends his love. Nick sent me to voicemail when I called. Ciao
Have you ever played a show in Italy? Probably not... Have you ever been to Italy? Maybe…
But our favorite band has, and Nick and Matt are here to take you on the journey!
Dive into an epic sh...
ARCHIVAL DROP — Insuphishient 2/9/22: The Lost February SessionFrom deep within a mislabeled folder titled “DO NOT EDIT (Nick)”, we proudly present the 2/9/22 episode — forgotten by time, remembered by no one, and somehow still completely intact.
Why are we releasing it now? Because Matt was searching for a voice memo of a dream and accidentally opened this episode instead. Nick insisted we burned it. We didn’t. We just titled it “T...
Matt and Nick have unearthed a never-before-heard episode from February 29, 2022, a date that technically did not exist. And yet... here it is. Fully recorded. Never released. Possibly cursed. Possibly divine.
Why are we releasing it now?
Because Nick tried to plug in a sandwich press where the recorder should go and accidentally booted up the wrong hard drive. Matt saw the waveform, gasped audibly, and whispered, "We swore...
No sound check this week. Sorry, Not that we didn’t want too! Nick is at the RMV getting a “Real ID” and Matt had to fill in at PETA, (Pasta Enthusiasts Taking Action). With his help they may get that Torchio.
Now On with the show:
We swore this one would never see the light of day. Not because of lawsuits (though those were threatened). Not because of technical issues (though Nick recorded half of it with a harmonica mic). But beca...
Friday, May 10 — Big Money Friday: Catalog Sale, Fan Fiction, and Lies
Matt and Nick are back and Phish is (hypothetically, spiritually, maybe emotionally) selling their entire catalog to the fans. One song at a time. One version per person. You get the rights. The masters. The vibes. And yes, you have to store them in your garage.
The buy-in? $10K per track.
Fishman’s vacuum solos? Slightly more.
Silent jams? Non-refundable.
...
Wednesday, May 8 — This Day in Phish - Tory: The Date Is Correct. Finally.
It’s This Day in Phish - Tory and Matt nails it. Like, nails it. May 8. No Tuesday slippage. No accidental recap of a show from last week. Just good, clean calendar work. Give the man a ribbon.
Nick, meanwhile, opens the episode with a five-minute rant about Vermont license plates and ends up revealing his Phish tattoo is actually a barcode for a discontinued ...
Wednesday, May 8 — World Wide Wednesday: The Content Abyss
Matt and Nick log in and immediately realize something’s wrong. There’s no tour. No setlists. No Trey in a hoodie climbing a venue wall. Just the two of them. Alone. With microphones. And too much time.
This week’s main topic?
Drums.
Specifically: Fishman’s current setup, his rig, and whether he’s hiding a small apartment inside it. Nick insists the roto-toms have mul...
Tuesday, May 6 — International Jams: Welcome to Camden, England (We Think)
Matt and Nick are in England. Or at least spiritually. Maybe emotionally. They’ve got warm beers, accents that drift mid-sentence, and a Phish show from June 27, 1997 that feels like it was played in a foggy warehouse under a fish and chips sign.
Matt tries to read off a venue name no one can pronounce. Nick tries to figure out if “Camden” is a place or a P.L....
Monday, May 5 — Soundcheck: Cinco de May-oh-no
Matt and Nick are back and they’ve traded their setlists for salt rims. It’s Cinco de Mayo. There are margaritas on the mixer, guac in a patch cable, and Jimmy Buffett has somehow been playing in the background for over three hours. No one hit play. No one is stopping it either.
Here's what's coming this week — assuming we recover:
- Tuesday: International Jams gets diplomatic...
Friday, May 3 — Big Money Friday Is Fully Funded
Matt and Nick are back, and they brought a big bag of cash. And by cash, we mean songs — high-value, high-rotation, high-C Phish songs.
Also, side note:
Imagine a world where Phish sells the rights to individual versions of songs from every show as NFTs. Sorry, NPTs — Non-Pliable Tweezerz? You enter a lottery for $1,000, maybe $10,000, and if you win they keep your money and you ow...
Thursday, May 1 — This Day in Phish - Tory (Sort of)
Matt and Nick are back and it’s May 1, so naturally we’re covering a historic date: April 27. Four days ago. Why? Because Phish-Tory isn't about math—it's about feelings, vibes, and accidentally deleting the actual episode we planned to use.
It was Hollywood Bowl Night 3, a night people have already started claiming the crowed was “impotent.” Matt and Nick agree... but th...
It’s World Wide Wednesday and Matt and Nick are back to break down Night 2 at the Hollywood Bowl.
Better song selection? Absolutely.
Chompers? Everywhere.
And the fog? Not the only thing that was thick, if you catch our drift.
If you’re wondering what other people thought of the show, you’re in the right place.
It’s Night 2.
It’s the Bowl.
It’s World Wide Wednesday.
Let’s go.
If you are new always listen t...
Tuesday, April 29 — International Jams Has Gone Off the Grid
Matt and Nick are live from somewhere in Cabo. Or near Cabo. Or what someone in Cabo called Cabo.
They are definitely international. Definitely in Mexico. Definitely talking about the Hollywood Bowl Night 1 show.
First things first: The sound was huge. Huge sound. Big sound. Loud, but not too loud. Loud in the way you hope it will be when the lights go down and you realize y...
So much has happened in the minutes after this episode was recorded and before it "aired."
Most notably, a pathetic excuse for an institution in Cleveland, Ohio broke all our hearts. Matt and Nick will get to it, but probably not until Wednesday. It’s going to be a busy week.
On with today’s show.
Nick and Matt recap the first five shows of this historic West Coast run, getting ready for the final three nights at t...
Friday, April 26 — Big Money Friday is circling the lot in a "rented" limo
Matt and Nick show up overcaffeinated and underqualified, clutching San Francisco Night 2 like it’s a fragile investment but definitely believe in it. The show was sharp, flashy, messy. Not San Fran, Insuphishient....
Meanwhile Trey walked off stage like he just paid cash for your soul and didn’t need a receipt.
Nick says it felt like a setlist you’d...
Thursday, April 24 — This Day in Phish - Tory (Sort of)
Matt and Nick are back with a very short episode. Why? Because Nick spilled cold brew on the master file and Matt’s mic was pointed at a plant the whole time. We move on.
We know it’s April 24, but we’re talking about the San Francisco show from 4/22, because linear time is fake and the setlist hit harder two days later. This was one of those nights where everything felt half a ...
It’s Wednesday and the inbox is glowing.
World Wide Wednesday rolls in with the Portland show front and center — a night that felt like few others in recent memory. Not sleepy. Not pushed. Just confident. Like the band was already in the pocket before the lights even dropped.
Half way through today's show Nick glitches out for a few minutes. Then Matt explains how to eat a burrito "Rapid fire style..." No one’s ri...
It’s Tuesday and we’ve fled the country.
International Jams broadcasts live from a suspicious motel room in Vancouver, where Matt insists the Wi-Fi smells like patchouli and Nick is wearing a shirt he bought from a dog.
Tonight we’re diving into Seattle Night 2, but since we crossed the border, it counts. The show felt big. The sound was tight, the way Page’s shirt was tight (not the fit. The vibe). Fishman played like he knew s...
Nick and Matt are back and you don’t even care that you could be listening to new Phish right now.
We break down night one. Codename Snoozy. Took some turns, landed on its feet, kind of. Matt had questions. Nick took a nap.
Night two? Untouched. Codename Fire. Tuesday’s problem. We’re not ready. You’re not ready.
The week’s schedule is upside down and we’re reading it out loud anyway.
It’s Monday. It’s Soundcheck. It’s Insuphishie...
