For the final episode of ITPNT, please welcome therapist Gail Geiger. She has so much advice to give: be careful about brownstones, why learning a new language (in her case Hungarian) can help your mental health, and how you can stay in touch with your inner child as well as the loved ones you've lost.
Check Out This Obscure Record this week is about MeWithoutYou - Brother, Sister (2006)
Prince - Self-Titled (1979)
The episode closes with the world premiere of a song I wrote for Gail called, "You're a Dream, Gail."
Gail's plug is to join Preply, a tutoring website. If you're looking to learn Hungarian look for a tutor named Benjamin!
It's been a journey, thanks to everyone who listened to these episodes. You can find me at @DermotMusic on Facebook and Instagram.

ITPNT 56 - Anthony
The 2nd to last episode of ITPNT is a wild, wonderful ride. Anthony Paparo is a man with refined tastes. We begin the episode by ranking our favorite General Mills Halloween mascots before enjoying some Dunkin' coffee in the Chattuccinno segment. The main course of this episode is a discussion about the latest entry in the Hellraiser franchise. Is Hellraiser (2022) a remake, reboot, or sequel? Could it be a little of each?
SPOILER WARNING: We discuss the ending of the film from 01:28:00 to 01:29:30.
Anthony’s Hellraiser watch-list:
You can start with Hellraiser (1986) and/or Hellraiser (2022)
Then, you can watch the 2nd (Hellbound), 5th (Inferno), and 9th (Judgment) installments.
Upgraded: Get yourself nice pairs of socks (Anthony)
Staying in touch with family (Michael)

On the first of the final three episodes of "Is This Podcast Name Taken?" I'm joined by friend and fellow artist with many hats, Jonii! We talk about the art of songwriting and a musician’s legacy, why collaborating with others is important even when you're a "solo artist," and being fair to yourself with expectations.
Also, on "Check Out this Obscure Record," we talk about Tegan & Sara and an obscure 80s straight-to-video masterpiece, "Creating Rem Lezar."

It's the final ITPNT of the year, and I thought there would be no better treat than to bring back Stu Rosenberg one final time to talk about our years. We'll be going deep and taking things in a Quarterly mode. We'll talk about music, movies, & books but we'll also get into some personal difficulties that really puts things into perspective for us and hopefully you as well! It's an episode unlike any other and here's a list of some of the topics we'll cover to illustrate that point:
Thanks for listening and making 2022 an unforgettable year in my life

Michael and Mike get into an episode of Mad Men that has been shook by the news of Don Draper and his cheating ways, all thanks to Jimmy Barret. We dive into the separation of the Drapers, Joan shouldering the load of the TV department work to help Harry Crane, and finally Peggy deciding to give some help to Father Gill and the church with their flyer for a dance titled "A Night to Remember."
On the dAd Break, the boys discuss a favorite hobby of theirs; Anime/Manga!
That and more on this episode of The Dad Men Doncast!

Come along as we take a ride in Don's new expensive car with his family, Jane and the boys make their way into Coopers office to find a mysterious painting, a bombshell rocks the Jimmy Barrett premiere party! Some of the best conversation occurs though, while we examine Ken's heartwarming and tragic dinner with Kitty and Salvatore Romano.
On the dAd Break, the boys discuss the new video game, “God of War Ragnarök” as well as Netflix behind-the-scenes drama and their recent loss of one of their best creative minds, Mike Flanagan.

Hasief Ardiasyah, a former writer for Rolling Stone Indonesia, is a hardcore Weezer fan who recently had the experience of a lifetime after the band stopped by Jakarta and Bali in Indonesia. We chat all about him helping Weezer's lead singer learn how to properly sing an Indonesian pop cover, going out to dinner with two members of the band, and his outlook on the Weezer discography. It was really nice to chat with Hasief and I hope you enjoy listening to us get Weezy.
COTOR (Check out this Obscure Record) this week is about the album “Agterplass” by the Indonesian rock band The Adams. It's a wonderfully produced collection of catchy, crunchy guitar and synth-laden tunes.
Hasief has written the lyrics for a number of The Adams songs as well as for other musical artists. Here's a list of some of his co-writing credits:
The Adams:
Won’t Be Easy
Timur Pelantur
Masa-Masa (This is the song playing during COTOR this week)
Danilla:
Batas
D’Masiv:
Side by Side
Fleur!:
Break Sebat

On Mad Men, Peggy finds that she isn't being included in important business due to decisions being made after work-hours, Don finds out that he has a reputation, and Duck is offered an olive branch. And Jallah asks the question: which one of us is a Jackie and which one of us is a Marilyn?
The dAd Break this week is about DMT and drug trips... neither of us have tried them but we both have heard stories! One of us is interested, the other is a little scared but argues for legalization. You'll have to listen to find out which side we're on!

I'm celebrating the release of my latest album "Coffee Music" by highlighting some of the incredible people I worked on the project with. This week, we have our finale and two awesome guests - the producer and engineer of “Coffee Music,” Kristopher Johnson! And the drummer of ”Coffee Music” and every other Dermot release but one, Peter Anderson! I chat with them about the loss of our mutual friend and collaborator Ed Ackerson, Boston Terriers, new home ownership, and 2 different fun facts about the vocal production and drum production on this album that set it apart from anything else I've done.
I close the episode with an acoustic performance of "Your Big Brother," track 5 on “Coffee Music.”
