#044 - The Handmaid's Tale Season 2
The Gribshnobler returns from hiatus with LadyMsGee for our discussion of season 2 of the TV series The Handmaid's Tale, based on the dystopian (maybe science fiction) novel by Margaret Atwood. Do we think this season holds up in comparison to the book and first season? Listen to find out! Along the way, you'll also hear X-Ray Spex, The Plasmatics, and The Luminaries play some punk and indie rock. Note: This episode has an explicit rating for language and subject matter. Correction: We did not play any X-Ray Spex songs in our first Handmaid episode, instead we played "No One's a Little Girl" by The Raincoats.

#043 - Tribute to Mr. Titan, The GribCat
We are very sad to report that The GribCat, also known as Mr. Titan, has passed away. He was such a vocal cat that he ended up in several episodes of The GribCast and even one of our original songs. In this tribute LadyMsGee joins The Gribshnobler to give some history and reminiscence of the GribCat; his life, his passing, fun memories, his positive influence in our own lives and others. We also share a deleted clip from the previous episode in which Rand Kelly meets Mr. Titan and discusses cats and other pets. At the end we play two songs that remind us of the GribCat, by Willie Nelson and Nobuo Uematsu with Emiko Shiratori. Photo of Mr. Titan / The GribCat by Don of the Dead Music in this Episode 1. Willie Nelson: He Was a Friend of Mine from the album 2. Nobuo Uematsu & Emiko Shiratori: Melodies of Life (Layers of Harmony) from the album
