As Lou comes back from Texas, Adelle leaves to Wisconsin. When Adelle returns Lou is off on another tour. Having had no time to check in with their faithful listeners an emergency episode is in order! They equate keeping their lives in order during this chaotic time to cleaning the litter box.

Everyone (Adelle, Tiny Tunes Tuesday Guy, Mini-Music-Monday Guy and 4-Track Man) is skeptical of Lou's claim that he has not played Natural One for the podcast. How could have -not- played his most known tune after 2 and 1/2 years of RAW Impressions? Adelle and Lou share their thoughts on regret. Read Lou's Folk Implosion tour diary on duh Substack:https://barlowfamilygeneral.substack.com/WATCH US ON LouTube: https://youtu.be/AAbWXm2Swb0

Lou is in Seattle, Adelle is at home. Triggered by raw onions, Adelle is psyched to talk about other things she dislikes very much. She makes a list and encourages Lou to do the same. Urban oysters, aggressive flatulence and their upcoming live, for everybody, Substack session are discussed. With it’s nearly hour long run time, this is, easily, the most podcasty podcast Adelle and Lou have ever done (Lou even used AI to edit it because he’s too busy on tour to do it himself).WATCH on LouTubehttps://youtu.be/OmZnnldZfUY Join our Substack (free! paid!) and watch us go live on April 9th at 2 pm EST for a tour of the RAW studio and a guitar lesson! https://barlowfamilygeneral.substack.com/Also, keep those April birthday shoutouts coming!: rawimpressionspodcast@gmail.com.
