Are you ready to ROCK? What about ROLL? And how about AND?? Hi. I know this isn't why you all support the page/channel, but I'm posting this here anyway. TRY AND STOP ME! I've mentioned it on the podcast before, but I'm half of a band called The Hot Shapes and we are more or less done with our first album, so I thought I'd share a preview with patrons here. We'll have it available for purchase on Bandcamp soon, but mostly we just want as many people as possible to hear the songs, so it's also all on SoundCloud. We'll be releasing more and more songs in the future, we have a big backlog, but in the meantime, here! Hope those who check it out enjoy it, and if you don't, hey that's fine, we're a news show.Anyway, here is Laverne by The Hot Shapes.-Cody (Johnston) (from the show)

I’m actually here primarily for Hot Shapes content

Joel DeYoung

Thanks! Listening right now! ❤️

Chris Hanson

Hey, I recognize that intro! Also, I'm getting a Cracker/Refreshments vibe, in the best way! Thanks for sharing this, definitely going to buy as soon as it's on sale. :)

Is that Warmbo peeking out from behind the cloud on the album cover?

Armando MC

Feelin all the songs. Nice way to start out my week. Thanks Mr. Cody.

Andrew Wood

Thanks for sharing this, definitely in my verve

Cory Hammerschlag

Damn Cody, this is crazy good - I wish I was as skilled a vocalist as you are, maybe my band would've sounded this good!! So do you play all strings and Jordan plays percussion? Or are you both omniinstrumentalists and just trade off parts depending on who writes it/plays it better? I am overflowing with all sorts of questions and positivity about this ❤️❤️❤️

I may not have joined for this content but I sure am enjoying it. Thank you for sharing! Looking forward to more.

Bree Pail

New vibes just dropped. I’m super excited to listen to more of this when I get the chance, great job!!!

Stephanie Kay

Yessssssss Cody thank you for sharing!! Not a single weak track. Particularly in love with Tedious and So Right On - can’t wait to learn the words so I can belt along ❤️❤️❤️

Sean Piper

I will remind Cody that he did promise he'd form a band with me in a Some More Qs ep. And it's my birthday, so I'm assuming this is finally culminating

a surprise, to be sure, but a welcome one

Somebody call Katy. Cody’s gone rogue! Nice work Mr. News Dude. Mr. Music News Dude…Mr. Mewsic Dude. Ha! Nailed it.

I already have a name for the tribute band my son will start in about 20 years when he’s living in the room above my garage. We’ll call them The Warm Forms and their debut tribute album will be entitled “Shirley”. Such a bright future.

If the monster survived then what the fuck did you kill

Dan Gilchrist

I would absolutely pay money for this. Fantastic. If I heard any of these on the radio, I'd be straining to hear who it was to memorise it and look them up later.

Thanks for sharing Mr. Cody!! Already really enjoying it! Really like #3, vintage and Arctic-like. Great stuff!

Finally decided to join on Patreon after watching the show for quite some time and it looks like I chose a good time to! Very excited to jam to this while I finish up my shift today, y’all are so talented and creative❣️

This fucking rules

Marie Strange

Love it! So much fun! Tenacious D and Modest Mouse vibes.

Joseph Goldthorp

I might grab it on Bandcamp, just because it's easier and I find SoundCloud annoying. Very proud of you for being in a band and doing an album! Glad you're sharing it!!

Joseph Goldthorp

MISTER CODY, I AM BLOWN AWAY. THIS IS GOOD MUSIC. I WANT TO SING AND SCREAM LIKE YOU. ABSOLUTELY put it on bandcamp and keep us posted so I can buy it and be a huge hipster and get a T-shirt. I'm very excited for you and more music. (I'm commenting on like every song as Burgertown sorry lol)

Lia

I love it so much, what a killer sound 🔥 I hope there will be a way to purchase a physical copy?!! Related TMI, I am riding out some horrible nausea that's preventing me from sleeping and listening to the album was the exact distraction I needed. It also feels so special/parasocial to remember Cody being the weird misunderstood new guy on cracked who's sense of humor I quickly came to love and how he evolved into fair+balanced (tm) news dude and also this whole time was an awesome musician. Thank you for being a cool guy and sharing your talents 💗
