Sadly, there hasn’t been a brand new episode of No Dogs in Space since July of 2024. Half 4 of the podcast’s sequence on Can wrapped up an abbreviated season three, which targeted on experimental rock. Don’t get me improper, I beloved seasons one and two, however the present gave the impression to be gearing up for a deep dive into Krautrock, and I used to be hype. Sadly, that episode ended with hosts Marcus Parks (Last Podcast on the Left) and Carolina Hidalgo declaring they had been going to do one other season on punk (the subject of season one), just for the feed to go quiet.
When you’re a music obsessive, this can be a must-listen podcast. Over the course of 73 episodes, the husband-and-wife duo digs into the careers of the Beastie Boys, The Velvet Underground, Pleasure Division, and extra. Even if you happen to assume you understand all the pieces there’s to learn about iconic bands like The Stooges, I assure there will probably be new information right here.
The present dedicates a number of hours over the course of a number of episodes to its topics. Its two-part intro to Krautrock, which closely focuses on Amon Düül II is over three hours lengthy, and that’s on the shorter facet. The Replacements sequence is almost 9 hours lengthy, and Beastie Boys is even longer nonetheless.
Over these exceptionally lengthy sequence, it by no means will get boring, although. The 2 stability scripted info-dense sections with extra improvisational sidebars expertly. Additionally they, as you’d count on from a married couple, have nice chemistry on mic. Additionally they be certain that to share all their sources on the finish of the episode in case you need to observe down the first supply or do your individual fact-checking.
The present isn’t formally over. As not too long ago as a few months in the past, Carolina was responding to Instagram feedback saying she’d like to do extra episodes. And the opportunity of the present returning has come up a number of instances on stay streams. However as of this writing, we’re nonetheless ready on that Punk Rock 2.0 sequence.
