Chris and Tom talk detective shows and detective movies - streaming now!
Welcome to the Third Song In version of Tuesdays at the record store -- new music day! It also works for whatever new movies or books were available at your local Blockbuster or Borders (neither of which exist anymore).
Since those experiences are now few and far between, we thought having a "Staff Picks" section for each of us to recommend new releases would be helpful.
Let us know what you think!
A 2-season British television series, based upon an American graphic novel. Once again, Tom's kids (eventually) direct him to some cool stuff.
A respectful cover of one of Tom's favorite Todd Snider Songs. RIP
Tom recommends this with a shout-out to FOTS Andy Armstrong for the recommendation. Uptempo, fun song with great percussion.
Tom recommends this 2025 album and describes it as having a "Nathaniel Rateliff feel," although a little more country and a little less soul.
Tom recommends this show, starring Ethan Hawke and set in Tulsa, Oklahoma. This one is getting a lot of year-end awards attention since we recorded the episode.
Tom recommends this 2019 Nebula Award-winner. An engaging sci-fi story that illustrates the love of music from the perspective of the creators and the audience.
New version of the Stephen King classic that is definitely not like the Schwarzenegger version! Dropped on 11/17, so check it out.
Award-winning 2025 sci-fi with contemporary themes and great writing.
New release from a band that appears to be on its way up. Chris likes the song Misery in particular.
A solid release from one of Chris' new favorite artists. Keep your eye on these guys.
A cover of the classic Guy Clark song with contributing vocals from one of Chris' all-time favorites, Rodney Crowell.
Single and pre-release from upcoming 2026 album, World's Gone Wrong, from the incomparable Lucinda Williams. This song features Brittney Spencer.
Chris saw McPherson open for Ruston Kelly recently and loved the set. Cool cover of the Springsteen classic.
Yes, this is me selling out, but I really like the Justin Hartley series, even if I can't stop thinking of him as the male stripper in Bad Moms' Christmas. The larger role of his brother, played by Jensen Ackles, is a good addition to the show.
Episode 1 guest Tim Placher recommends the documentary "Pee-Wee as Himself" streaming on HBO Max.
