Florida Time!
Host: MalThursday
The All-Time Greats From the Sunshine State return to the GaragePunk Podcast with a very special episode where all of the songs are about the swamps, beaches, and backwaters of good ol’ F-L-A. Florida artists like Wayne Cochran, Noble “Thin Man” Watts, and the Corornados rock alongside out-of-state greats like Bing Crosby, the Butthole Surfers, and the Beach Bums, who open the show with this episode’s theme song. There’s even a cut from the soundtrack of our favorite Elvis movie, Girl Happy. Produced by MalThursday and JeffMiami in living monophonic sound. It’s Florida Time!

Good god, what a great podcast! All those surprising tunes from the denizens of F-L-A and the Butthole Surfers and Root Boy besides. Yeah!

Great to see this show back again. I like the Iron Butterfly commercial and was surprised that the riff in the opening of every show is a Burtthole Surfers song. I think that is a first for a Garagepunk podcast.

It’s great to see Mal keep one ear peeled on the podcast circuit. Long may he testify.

Thanks, kids. We’ve got another new episode coming soon, called “Cryin’ Time.” Lots of weepin’ wailers from Benny Joy, Mouse & the Boys, James & Bobby Purify, Hour Glass, and many more.

“Elvis didn’t like Tampa” – Brilliant! .. and “Going back to Miami” was a huge part of growing up there.
Got a kick out of the “Moonshiner’s Woman” promo, AND the Iron Butterfly flogging “Ban” deodorant.. BUT Bob Seeger “Florida Time” and the Bing Crosby “Apalachicola” seemed a tiny bit out of place for the rest of the great music in this show. I’m going thru all your shows and love em all.. pls keep em coming.
