Season 1

Ben and John discuss the show's 25th album, Songs: Ohia's Ghost Tropic.  A dark and often haunting record, Ghost Tropic is an outlier amongst songwriter Jason Molina's storied and extensive work.  The episode reviews the record's musical composition, improvisational nature, and lyrical themes of isolation while also serving as primer on Molina's life and career.
