22:32

Is there anything better than the Monday before a show. Yes you have to work. Yes the system is designed to keep you in your job, paying bills, rent, working for the man. But still you get a little reward every now and again and this week is one of those weeks. Phish is back! On todays episode Matt and Nick are getting ramped up. Tune in to see why…

Big Money Friday presents: 9 to 5 21:31

5h ago21:31

21:31

Some people wonder what happens when you take big money and add it to Friday. The answer, of course, is Insuphishient. Matt and Nick are back with a plan, and yes, this time it’s real. Not just two guys mumbling into microphones while flipping through setlists like they’re laminated Denny’s menus. No, today they came to work. On this week’s Big Mon…

Jimi Hendrix Sonic Scholar Andy Aledort 1:01:38

1h ago1:01:38

1:01:38

We figure Jimi Hendrix is easily the most discussed guitarist of all time. And at this point, there are probably few, if any, stones left unturned. So for our Hendrix episode of 100 Guitarists, we had to go to the ultimate scholar on Hendrix’s playing to get deep, and luckily we knew just who to call. Whether you realize it or not, you’ve probably …

Do you like going to concerts? If so, we’re willing to bet you’ve been to at least one of the shows we’re talking about on today’s very important episode of Insuphishient. Yes, Matt and Nick are back, and today, we’re rolling in the deep (no Adele) of the Big Money Machine that is live music. It’s World Wide Wednesday, and yes, for once, we actuall…

Insuphishient 4.0 is nigh 23:09

3d ago23:09

23:09

Well Insuphishient heads ( we need a better term)... summer’s over. Did it fly by? Yes. Are we in denial? Also yes. But the good news? Nick and Matt are back. Five days a week. (Not this week with he holiday and all) Every weekday. And they swear these next episodes will be better than the last two. (We’re holding them to it.) While the boys retool…

Yes Yes Y’all Insuphishient is back. It’s the last Friday of the summer, and the only thing that could make it better… is an episode of your favorite Phish talk show. Bad news: The boys really phoned this one in. Good news: They’ll be back to the normal schedule next week. (Well… not next week. Monday’s a holiday. So Tuesday through Friday. Yay?) T…

Phoning it out... The Insuphishient Chronicles 18:32

9d ago18:32

18:32

I wouldn’t say Matt and Nick phoned it in for today’s episode, because that would require either of them to know the number. But I would say… this show could be better if one or both of them had planned even a tiny bit. What starts in disaster ends in disaster, which my high school guidance counselor Mrs. Miller once called “a teachable moment.” Mr…

Are you sick of listening to the same old stupid stuff every day? Good news. We’ve got all new stupid stuff. This is Insuphishient, the talk show you didn’t ask for but definitely need. Three times this week, Nick and Matt are here to help you waste your time and your flavor. Yes, your flavor. They’re talking about your favorite band, Phish, in way…

When Big and Money meet Friday: VOL 3 20:21

14d ago20:21

20:21

Finally, it’s Big Money Friday and Nick and Matt are back! Today they are not pulling any punches, mostly because Nick is literally training for his boxing match with Page. Gloves on, trash talk ready, donut shorts optional. But that’s not even the wild part. Matt has unearthed a lost Phish contract rider from ’94 that demands three things at every…

"Podcast gives way if you listen to Steve" VOL II 19:24

16d ago19:24

19:24

Welcome to Insuphishient, the only podcast brave enough to ask: what if Phish never broke up, but the laws of physics did? Nick arrives late because he was trapped in a revolving door at an abandoned mall. Matt shows up early. Also he claims to have discovered a secret sixth member of Phish a man known as “Greg” who plays the "skin" trombone. Today…

As a longtime music journalist and author of the Allman Brothers books One Way Out: The Inside History of the Allman Brothers Band and Brothers and Sisters: The Allman Brothers Band and the Inside Story of the Album That Defined the ’70s—both New York Times bestsellers—Alan Paul is foremost authority on the Allmans who was never in the band.

Last week Nick and Matt were lost in the fourth cube of time. Monday decided it wanted to be Wednesday. Friday's episode blew away like a paper plate at a picnic. Never to be heard from again (Sorry). But this week the curtain rises again. The boys are back with three brand new shows and the spotlight is firmly on their faces. Today they get live w…

When your Outsides in and your Thursday's a Wednesday! 21:20

21:20

Welcome back to World Wide Wednesday! Where Matt and Nick dig into what’s happening online and everywhere else that matters. Also… where’s Fall Tour? What about Halloween? Are we getting any new Phish songs this year? Matt heard his sound was “a little thin” last week, so this time we went the other direction. Nick wore his least favorite Hawaiian …

Tuesdays here with the Wind.... (yes we know what day it isn't) 19:29

23d ago19:29

19:29

When your Tuesday is a Monday, then your Wednesday is… today. Nick and Matt are still traveling through time, bouncing between days like a bad setlist segue. Yesterday they swore it was Monday, and for them, it was, but today they’re somehow stuck in Tuesday, and yet already talking about tomorrow. With Phish off the road, they’ve been marooned in …

It's Monday 0'clock some where.... 25:42

24d ago25:42

25:42

It’s Monday for Matt and Nick, even if, for you mere mortals, it’s somehow Tuesday. The good news? Insuphishient is back. Maybe better than ever. (Probably not.) (But maybe.) We’re kicking things off with a straight-up banger from the Winston-Salem 100’s back in ’97, the kind of show that sticks to your ribs and leaves a mark. Nick’s still on vacat…

Big Money Friday is Back and this is Vol: 26 Live Phish 95 19:35

28d ago19:35

19:35

It’s Big Money Friday, and few things are as big money as Live Phish. Today, Matt and Nick crack open a release from the legendary SPAC show of ‘95. It was hot. It was muggy. Nick was there, and if you want to know whether he liked it, you’ll have to tune in (you will be shocked). Meanwhile, Matt is attempting something called a reverse Foo-man (wh…

Well well… looks like World Wide Wednesday is back, baby and Nick and Matt are here for it. Apparently, you are too. Good thing. It’s been many a moon since we’ve done this, and as we adjust to life off the road, our buddy Trey is out there in California having the time of his life. And why not? Good for him. But… why does he keep playing Shine? Ju…

Les Paul Is Everywhere 38:54

1M ago38:54

38:54

When you think about the most name-checked guitarist of all time, who do you think of? Hendrix? EVH? Good guesses, but we think it’s gotta be Waukesha, Wisconsin’s own Les Paul. Though his name lies atop one of the most popular guitar models of all time, there’s so much more to Les. His inventions span modern recording history, and with his music—w…

You know what? "Love is what we are." Or at least… what Trey played yesterday. When’s the last time Phish played that song? Answer: once. Eight years ago. Matt and Nick don’t even remember it. Nick suspects it’s made up. Matt thinks it might be a contagious. But yes, we are bitter. Nick is bitter. Matt, once again, still can’t believe "it’s not but…

It’s the last Friday of July, and Insuphishient has returned to bring you what might be the ph-inest Phish show of the summer. Maybe even the century. From the moment you heard the second song, you knew it was on. Forget “Same Set Reprise”, Trey flipped the script and changed the whole damn debate. And what followed this never heard before placemen…

The Promise Vol: SPAC 19:25

Well, we’ve come to the saddest day of the summer. Phish has wrapped up their summer tour. True, there are six more shows on the books but you’ll have to wait 46 days or as we call it, 2 Gordons. But not all hope is lost. The band just finished a run at S.P.A.C. that will go down in the history books. Starting with Night one. Trey made a promise. A…

Ladies and gentlemen… we’ve reached that bittersweet stretch of summer where only three shows remain. Sure, a few gigs loom down south in September but let’s be real, that’s fall tour. (Sorry Halloween hopers, but we call it like we see it.) So onward we go to SPAC: A venue dripping in memory and myth. Nick’s first taste? 1995. (I think they actual…

Nobody Can Keep Up with Buddy Guy 39:36

Buddy Guy’s high-energy, crowd-strolling performances set the bar for every electric blues and blues rock guitarist who came after him. And that includes Jimi Hendrix. Buddy changed the game and left an indelible mark on the sound of electric guitar playing. He’s still out there, delivering incendiary performances to stages all over. On this episod…

Well, well, well. A bet was made… and the (pied) piper needs to be paid. OK, not quite on today's show, but still, keep those betting slips (handy). First, we need to talk about Chicago Night One.

Nick and Matt are back… Are they? Kind of. Sort of. But not really. But yes really. It’s Chicago Night One and we were supposed to have a full episode. But then Nick decided to route our audio through what he calls his “secure backup system,” which apparently is just a guy named Edgar in Uruguay with a 2006 Dell and a dial-up modem. So instead of a…

It’s Wednesday afternoon and Matt and Nick are back!! They may or may not be hiding in a bunker, as a few symbolic shots appear to have been fired their way.

When it comes to queen of slide guitar Bonnie Raitt, we’ve got something to talk about. On her rootsy first albums—Bonnie Raitt, Give It Up, and Takin’ My Time—she set a bluesy vibe, but covers like Talking Heads’ “Burning Down the House” and Del Shannon’s “Runaway” showed she had more to say. By the late ’80s, she was a pop radio superstar. So if …

Matt and Nick are back and this time, they’re live. Like live live. And sure, Phish just played a heater of a weekend in Charleston — but even at Harvard, somebody’s gotta graduate last in the class. That’s right, we’re starting with Night One. The sky? Blue. The moon? Spanish. The “Turtle in the Clouds”? Nowhere to be found. (Check back in 48 hour…

Big Money Friday is back, y’all and so is your favorite Phish Talk Show that knows just enough to be dangerous.

Matt and Nick are back and they’ve got opinions. Lots of them. Colorado night 3 lit the fuse and today on Insuphishient, it’s nothing but sparks, thumbs, and questionable financial advice. The boys break down the show the only way they know how, wildly inconsistent thumbs up, thumbs down. Nick flips mid-episode. Matt gives a double thumb sideways. …

As Phish marches into Ohio, Matt and Nick emerge from a mysterious audio haze with a brand new episode — not on time, but right on brand. Today, they attempt to cover Colorado Night 2, a show Matt calls “legit” and Nick calls “wait, what day is it?” Nick’s mic is cooked. Burnt. Glowing like an orb at a rave in 2007. Meanwhile, Matt is grinning like…
