What It Is
Some people sit around and shoot the ****.
Technical Details
This show is sporadic these days, due, as I understand it, to some of these folks landing a terrestrial radio gig. Back when it was really popping it was coming out every week. Shows are around an hour. The iTunes page has 300 episodes. For another hundred or so, check out the official site.
What About It
So, “Stuart Bedasso” is a pun (or something) on “stupid asshole.” I feel like I could stop right there, but I won’t. Anyway, I don’t know why this show is billed as a music show. The host usually plays a set of three or four songs at some point, but there’s way more talking than there is music. This is one of those random shows where the discussions just go all over the place without any particular plan. Or so it seems anyway. I don’t mind those kinds of shows, but this one rarely goes anywhere interesting. It’s kind of just listening in to some guys talking at the next table; they probably won’t bring up anything that’s really that engaging and a good bit of the conversation is going to be about personal things that you either don’t understand or don’t care about. It’s funny at times. Never really hilarious.
1 ½ stars.
Essential If
You’re still laughing at that whole “stuart bedasso” thing.
Avoid Like the Plague If
You prefer your music shows to have a music section that isn’t 50% composed of the theme song.
Best Entry Point
I don’t know. Of the episodes I listened to, I couldn’t really pick one out.
