Steve is joined by Don from the Album Nerds Podcast for a deep dive into two standout new releases — David Byrne’s Who Is the Sky and Birdsong, the latest from The Blow Monkeys. Together, they explore how both artists continue to evolve while staying true to their distinctive sounds.

In music news, the duo covers fresh tracks from Heaven 17, Boys Don’t Cry, Depeche Mode, Men Without Hats, James and Haircut 100 — plus a nostalgic twist with a classic ’80s cover from Andy Bell of Erasure. Tune in for lively discussion, sharp insights, and a celebration of the best in modern and classic new wave.
