Been feeling the same way and it’s strange. Normally I’d never dream of only seeing one of a two-night run. But I only have a Tuesday ticket to Richmond and I’m sort of okay with that.

Never mind, I just looked at their website. Looks great. Will definitely check them out next time I’m out!

Very cool. Do places like Bonfire stay open all day and serve lunch/dinner burritos, or is it strictly a breakfast thing?

Two part question: Is Colorado known for a certain style of burritos, and if so, what makes them distinct? In your opinion, what makes the ones from Bonfire the best?

As someone who did the same thing last week, I can confirm you’re correct. Just be glad you didn’t do like me and also get the pneumonia vaccine in the other arm

Okay, I finally found it, but not the way it was described in the screenshot. For anyone else interested, I went to nugs.net/store then filtered for Goose. Thanks again for the help!!

After listening to the recent @aatgoosepod.com episode I just spent the last ten minutes looking on @nugs.net for the free Frost Amphitheater to buy and download and can’t find it. Even searching for the amphitheater itself doesn’t bring it up. Any help appreciated!

One of my favorites of the year so far. I actually made a short video while listening to it on a bike ride in late June. The feeling of floating fits well with the jam.

I’ll be the first to call out alarmism, but I think there is evidence for us to be terrified by what AI will soon be capable of (eg. hack & mobilize a swarm of drones). The ability for AIs to escape, collaborate, lie & deceive is stunning. This is worth a listen podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

I appreciate how high you ranked the VA Beach Tumble. It’s such a unique jam. It’s a bliss jam that’s also somehow highly infectious and danceable—something that could only come from Goose and at this moment in the way they’re playing right now.

If @goose-band.bsky.social is planning the theme suggested in this Reddit thread, then please 🙏 play some LCD Soundsystem. I don’t care what song, because I think Goose would crush it, but “Home” makes the most sense for the theme. tinyurl.com/2jvkd5h9

Such a cool place and so few people know of it. My wife’s aunt and uncle own The Kelleys Island wine company and her grandparents had a B&B there, so we’ve been going there with our family for years. Hope you have a great time!

That’s fair! Due to lobbying from big alcohol and pharma, it seems most regulations are less about consumer safety and more about making it difficult and expensive to operate. If you’re interested, this is part 2 of a great 3 part series on the industry. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...

That’s fair. I’m in NC, one of the last states without access to cannabis—recreational or medical—and where the state government is trying to make illegal hemp products, and making outrageous claims about its safety to do so. So, I’m easily triggered these days by anything that can malign cannabis

Stokepoint @stokepoint.bsky.social · 09/09/2026
I really don’t like the headline, saying it’s a “marijuana product”. It’s a corydalis product. Big alcohol and big pharma will be all over this now.

I faced the same problem, but lot of the ones they make now are foldable, so they take up less space. If you ever decide to get one, check out facebook marketplace first. There are so many on there barely used and for pennies on the dollar.

Live reading things like this. With the Goose fanbase growing so fast these past few years, I think it would be cool if @aatgoosepod.com or @slowreadypod.bsky.social did episodes every now again inviting new fans to tell their past music interests & how they got into the band.

I’ve done the following and been injury free for about a year now: 1. Took 2 months off running, and subbed in cycling & rowing during that time. 2. Started strength training 3. Reduced gluten in diet. Still have beer & occasional bread. 4. Now only run 2-3 days a week, and cycle 2-3 days.

Stokepoint @stokepoint.bsky.social · 05/09/2026
At least you’re running! At 52, I’m at a point where I was rarely not injured. But it’s totally worth it!
