LMH Mixtape #122: Mahjong Games

Break out those tiles and chow down on this delicious set of mahjong tunes that are, you could say, mahJAMS.  This curated list by Brent and Rob will have you wishing you knew the rules to the eponymous board game not only because it seems fun anyhow, but because so much good music is locked behind that knowledge!

Episode 231: An 80's Christmas

This is another Christmas episode as the holiday theme seems to pop up all over the show.  Another theme is 80’s.  There’s a lot of 80’s sounds and references in this episode as well.  In the photo, Rob is trying to look like he’s poorly blowing a kiss, in case you were wondering.  There’s a also a VGM Karaoke segment at the end from Hammock of The Last Wave podcast.  Full track listing below.
