Rich and Danny are once again joined by their spiritual big brother, Mike Stiles, to avail themselves of the grace, beauty and easy grooves of Yacht Rock. Don’t miss Mike’s demonstration of how to use an 8-Track tape player!

Rich and Danny wish Jackson Browne a happy 77th birthday with the first of two Jackson Browne shows (the second will come sooner than later). Not much else to say about the show, but they think you'll really like it.

Danny takes the week off so Rich can sit with Kristi Pursell and Annie Larson, his beloved wife, to debrief about their experiences at Farm Aid 40, which was in Minneapolis on September 20th, and even share some of the performances from the show. Maybe not surprisingly, it gets pretty emotional right off the bat, because this is a cause that is dear to all three of them.

It's Farm Aid week in Minnesota, with the 40th edition of the all-star concert being held on September 20th at Huntington Bank Stadium on the University of Minnesota campus in Minneapolis. Rich is going to Farm Aid, and if you listen to the beginning of the show, he explains exactly why this is so significant to him. There's a lot of great music from the Farm Aid performers on this show, and Rich also speaks with Kristi Pursell in her role as a member of the Minnesota House of Representatives about the farm economy, and why an event like Farm Aid is so important.

Tonight’s show is programmed and co-hosted by Jonathan Reppe, who won the chance to work with Rich & Danny at a recent fundraiser. As it is right around Labor Day, Jonathan chose to focus on a man who dedicated his life to extending summertime as long as possible. While Danny is not all that familiar with JB, Rich is right in his element. All three have a great time, because it’s impossible to play Jimmy Buffet and not have a good time.

Both Rich and Danny are card carrying members of the E Street Nation, so this is something regular listeners should have seen coming pretty clearly. This week marks the 50th anniversary of the release of Born to Run. The boys mark the occasion by breaking the album down. It’s not quite having your face simultaneously on the covers of Time and Newsweek, but this does mark the 3rd time Bruce has had a show devoted to him. Another feather in your cap, Boss.

Neither Rich or Danny claim to be massive fans of Elvis Costello. They both really like his music, but for whatever reason they have only been cursory fans. This show is as much about them discovering some of Elvis Costello’s music as it is presenting the stuff they like. Also there’s a whole thing in there about the pronunciation of Steve Nieve’s name.

A week after his passing, Rich and Danny use their show to pay their respects and express their gratitude and admiration for one of the defining musicians of their time.
