In response to the 2022 Dallas floodings on Monday, Hernán plays songs (mostly blues) about storms, rain, currents, and floods, meteorological and psychological. And a special undisclosed guest shows up at the end to play a vinyl record whose identity they will not reveal to Hernán... what will it be?

Hernán plays new discoveries, overlooked songs and, once again, gravitates towards the goth sound.

A meditation on powerful love songs, from the light and happy to the sad and country.

Every once in a decade, or in a lifetime, you may fall in love with someone who seems so perfect their existence is hard to believe. Then, you realize the love is mismatched, or they're gone for good. This is a show about the shooting star loves that are fleeting but brilliant.

Frida decides to try to take down Hernán's show by forcing him to track lyrics and censor them as the music airs live. It's a risky game, but Hernán does succesfully censor the music... at the cost of the music.

Hernán interviews Justice Vaughn-Ott at the 2022 CrossFit Games and ask them about the music that they grew up with, the music they are listening to now, and the music they are making.List of songs played on broadcast: https://spinitron.com/m/playlist/view/16292548

My sister / hostage, Frida, joins me in playing increasingly existential synthesizer music as the night approaches.

Hernán tries and almost succeeds to play a full 58 minutes of soundtracks from films he's watched, but fails to either recall or download most of them.

Hernán and Frida show up to the studio empty handed, but quickly conjure up an episode about musical rivalries mixed with incredible goth sounds.

Hernán tries to put together a showcase of new music currently circulating in the Austin, Texas music scene, but his plan is foiled once Frida and Kyle arrive with their own musical agenda.

Hernán and Frida were supposed to do only one hour of OnlyFriends, but someone cancelled their show at the last minute and we decided to sub for them. Little did they know that we would unleash onto the world an episode about good soundtracks for racing movies that have yet to be made, songs about Indiana, and songs we mistakenly didn't play in previous episodes.

The sky is in a solemn mood, and so is Hernán. Here is a set of songs that may aid you in relaxing as grief takes hold, and as you attempt to take control of your grief with healthy self-reflection.

Hernán doubled his record collection after spending all of his money at the UW Madison Memorial Library's annual booksale this year, so big band aficionado Sophie helps Hernán dig through these finds as they learn about early 20th century American big band music.

Listen along as I try to impress Professor Morris with my podcasting skills for this Critical Internet Studies project.

Zach plays music for mornings, and challenges Hernán to come up with music for evenings. Hernán falls short, coming up with music for evening nightmares.

Brant finishes off his day at WSUM by fast-forwarding to the 80s music of the current era.

In the second installation of the Brant Dulaney franchise today, our favorite woody slug plays more classic 80s hits, and I respond with some songs related to the early hours of the morning.

Brant "Frant" Dulaney, a woody slug, arrives from Washington State and makes his debut on OnlyFriends with some classic 80's hits he has been aching to play. Frida tags along for comic relief.

My friends from Nottingham Cooperative try to triangulate the type of music Gilbert, one of the house cats, would enjoy listening to.

Kyle, an American hero, makes his debut on the show with the topic of union music.

Frida plays migraine reducing music, and I play migraine [inducing] music in response.

I surprise my friend Brant with a dinner party playlist featuring some of his favorite cutlets.

Sunny shares Socialist Ska, and I reply with some weird and disturbing SKAAAAA

My mom finally gets on the show!... with some help from my sister.
