Show Ten: Sam Machkovech
What would a dconstruction podcast be, if not late? Well, here it is, the mighty return to the airwaves for us, and all we have to offer is Sam Machkovech. He surprised us though, as between soporific tales of obscure medical disorders and high-pitched, giggly attempts at humor, he brought in some really [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Show One: Sarah Hepola, 2

Well, we’ve made our milestone: a whole show in one file - all under an hour. Of course, it took me a week extra to cull out all the superfluous Robert ranting and Lindsay aloofness, but it was worth it.
Plus, I’ve been sick. Cough.
Excuses aside, we’ve got a good show this week with [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Carter Albrecht
I can’t say much about Carter that wouldn’t be said better by others.

In the MP3, at the end of the song, the crowd screams, “One more! One more!” Jesus, if that were possible.

So, before you get all excited: this is not a new dconstruction.org posting. This is a favor.
About sixty thousand years ago, the anonymous wondermen behind We Shot JR approached us to discuss putting together a podcast/mixtape. Originally, there was going to be commentary from a local radio luminary, but apparently luminaries have very [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Show Ten: Sam Machkovech, 2
First things first: did you notice this? We somehow got ourselves nominated for “Best Music Web Site / Blog” in the 2006 Dallas Observer Music Awards. There were many other solid nominees. How we got in their company, we can only guess. It might help that we have interviewed every Dallas [...]Listen | Listen in your iPhone | Download | View full cache | Visit Website Show Nine: 2005 Rocked2006, huh? A whole new year, and like last year this one’s started with a hangover. But we’ve been nursing it with plenty of fluids, some sort of multi-vitamins, and then what we have here: a new podcast.
