  #165 - Dan Reeder and The Mountain Goats

  Aug 19, 202658 minS1

  This week on Up Your Alley , Jake finally got his hands on the Steam Machine , so we talk first impressions and whether the price starts to make sense once you've actually used it. Then we tackle one of the internet's more questionable food trends: Kool-Aid Pickles . Are they a hidden gem or proof we've gone too far? We also put together our Marvel homework list —the movies and shows we think are actually worth watching before Avengers: Doomsday . This week's recs: Days — the new album from The Mountain Goats Dan Reeder (2004) — the wonderfully homemade, self-titled debut from one of the most original songwriters around.

  #162 - Project Hail Mary and Parquet Courts' "Wide Awake"

  Jul 13, 20261h 5mS1

  This week’s recommendations: Wide Awake! (2018) by Parquet Courts — one of the best indie rock albums of the last decade and somehow still just as relevant. 🚀 Project Hail Mary — Jake finally crossed it off the list, and we talk about why everyone has been recommending it. To close things out, we pull back the curtain and read through some of the completely unhinged marketing emails we get as a podcast. 📧 Email: upyouralleypod@gmail.com 🎵 Theme music by Brother Bill https://brotherbill.bandcamp.com #ProjectHailMary #AssassinsCreed #BlackFlag #SlayTheSpire2 #ParquetCourts #GamingPodcast #MoviePodcast #IndieRock

  Episode #161

  #161 - People Make Games & Jerry's Map, Thrash and Supergirl

  Jul 2, 20261h 4mS1

  This week on Up Your Alley , we talk about Sony’s latest announcements and what they could mean for the future of physical game ownership . Are we watching the slow death of physical media, or is there still hope for collectors? At the end we do a quick review of Supergirl and what it could mean for James Gunn's DCU going forward. Then it’s time for our recommendations: 🦈 Thrash — the new shark attack movie that’s equal parts tense, ridiculous, and a great time. 🗺️ People Make Games – “He Keeps Building a Map to an Imaginary Place” — a wonderful documentary about folk artist Jerry Gretzinger , who has spent decades creating an ever-expanding fictional world one map tile at a time. It’s one of those stories that’s impossible to summarize and absolutely worth watching.
