Home of Indiana University, rock quarries, corn fields, enchanted woods, and Injury lawyer Ken Nunn. Bloomington is a town that has its own term for its ability to lure one-time residents back: the bloomerang. There is something weirdly magical going on here and College town nobuddies, Josh Bennett and Chris Kupersmith, are going to get to the bottom of this place by listening to stories and riding every possible tangent along the way.

Joel Washington is one of those superheroes of Bloomington who walks among us like he’s no big deal. His artistry is his superpower.

You might expect a certain degree of decorum from a Staff Attorney in the Bloomington Office of …

Today’s story is about a band, a song, and a brush with fame that’s more cringe than cool. Thirty years ago, Bloomington danced to the electronic beats of Situation Grey, a college band known more for their covers than cutting-edge originality.

Sara Gardner came to town/ Turned her bike into a crown/ Rode the bus to sororities/ For shits and giggles-what a tease!/ Went out west to use her math/ Stacked up cash and came on back/ Opened the doors to a rainbow space/ Stuck some fake teeth in her face/ Trolls the town, leaves some aghast/ And now she’s a guest on our podcast. Special thanks t…

Folks todays Congress hearing about the sabotage of Pakistani election andmi Donald Lou's testimony clearly shows the weakness and stupidity of Foreign office who has such low IQ officers in the department. No wonder 90% of Pakistanis hate US for no reason. It should have been other way round if we had supported democracy, human rights, rule of Law…

Salvage yard. Does that phrase make you think of goats or ducks? Baby dolls? Unicycles? Barges? Field trips? The January 6 Insurrection? Hugging? Our guest, Bethany Robinson, is the vice president of JB's Salvage, a classic Bloomington business on the west side of Bloomington. We had the pleasure of getting the history of this salvage yard that her…

We take a conversational stoll through our town, this time joined by fellow podcasters Alex and Miles from “It’s a Beautiful Day in the Gulch.” We talk about our shared love for Bloomington (the Gulch), but also our common experience of defending the decision to stay here. These Hoosier Alan Lomaxes tell us about Nighthawk, a local caped crusader, …
