Drew and Doug return for the October edition of Classic Rock and Beyond, marking the start of their second year back on the air at Voice of Vashon following their most recent hiatus!

This month’s Weird News takes us through the Midwest:

• Illinois: Panera and beauty brand Holler and Glow team up for a mac and cheese–themed beauty line in celebration of National Mac and Cheese Day — “one of the most disgusting Weird News™ stories I think I’ve ever done,” according to Doug.
• Indiana: A bowling tournament turns chaotic when one competitor leaves in handcuffs… yet still takes home $1,500 in winnings.
• Iowa: State fair season brings the culinary curiosities — Doug runs down a list of Iowa’s wildest fair food, including deep-fried bubblegum.

In Things That Make Doug Mad, the topic is smart refrigerators. Need we say more?

Musically, the episode threads together punchy alt and classic rock staples — The Hives, Blur, Steve Miller Band, Third Eye Blind, Joe Walsh, Sheryl Crow, and Spin Doctors — with bursts of humor, nostalgia, and the signature blend of chaos and commentary that defines Classic Rock and Beyond.

This month’s trip into The Drew and Mark Show Archives features two live in-studio tracks from Seattle band dentaru no tsuba, recorded April 29, 2016, in the Jean Bosch Broadcast Studio.
