Jonah Raydio
Proud progenitor of #thegreatpodcastswindle. Since 2012, Jonah Ray, Neil Mahoney and Cash Hartzell have argued, laughed, loved and gradually cut back on their drinking all while loosely discussing and playing submitted music. The three man team, often with a guest, sometimes without, are constantly pushing boundaries in the medium of "music news" Not since Rolling Stone introduced us to the New Journalism of Tom Wolfe and Hunter S. Thompson has a medium given rise to an artistic movement more clearly than podcasting and Jonah Raydio. And as an investment in the phrase "the best music is the best because it's personal" each week our heroes match a situation, a hypothetical question with their own personal favorite. Past "themes" have resulted in a fantasy novel based on Run The Jewels, a playlist of Beta Male Bachelor Party bangers and new directions for corporate entity radio stations. Jonah Raydio w/Cash feat. Neil. It's not your daddy's music podcast. It's Jonah's.

Hey everybody. This week, a local checks in from far away as comic and actor Steve Agee helps us try to find a new song for Neil! You may have noticed Neil owns like 25 albums from when he was in high school and 3 from college and then nothing else from the last, I dunno, 45 years. So this week, our game is to pitch Neil new music to see how he likes it.
Also we got Music Neüs, Canadian COVID restrictions and more!

Hey all. This week, we present our Christmas show! And just like the manger before the 25th, somebody is missing. Depite the glaring absence of Neil, we invite writer, podcaster, roustabout and past guest Elliott Kalan on to brighten our lives with his take on life. Elliott plugs his books, talks the Music Neüs that we love so much, and is there for the coolest thing this holiday season, the reveal of "Santa Was A Reindeer Driver"!...

Word up, y'all. No guest this week. We are moving to a new release day so you can get your Raydio fix in before you dive into Jonah's new podcast LET ME WATCH YOUR MOVIE WITH YOU. This week, because of an odd reading of a perfectly straightforward text, Music Neüs is a little under-researched. But we make up for it with a rousing game of “not a cowboy hat”, dive deep in this day in music history, and just plain old argue with each ...
