This has been kicking around in some form or another for a while. The phrase came from a smarmy way of describing (to myself) Ulrich Schnauss' music. Now this mix seems more like an okay soundtrack for rehab.

ALSO:
Three things for sharing:
1. I found this great interview with Steve Fisk on a podcasted radio show called "Some Assembly Required".

2. My favorite podcast is now The Sound of Young America
As is stated on its homepage, " The Sound of Young America is a public radio show about things that are awesome." And that's pretty much true. Interviews with Steve Albin, i. Podcast Feed.
The Archive is vast seeming, filled with interviews with a surprising number of my favorite people.

3. The funniest damn thing in a while: The Kasper Hauser Comedy Podcast. Podcast Feed. Check out the This American Life satire (two episodes!). Spot on.
