Episode 126: Chloe Lou
Returning guest Chloe Lou joins Travis Billy Ross and Sweet Kirbs for a Sunday that starts with Guinness World Record dreams, Malort shots, and a France house-party tour — then goes deep on California sober, Dolly Parton tributes, and a Gen X nostalgia spiral.
Chloe Lou’s France mini-tour — British takeover of a French country town, golf course gigs, circus tent at the music school, and dad’s sunflower painting from the exact same angle as her photo three years earlier
Oregon Pavilion Labor Day — 3,500 people, Birdie the Australian Shepherd puppy, and Good Mojo’s half-step-down AC/DC set (Mike Avila on drums)
California sober, day 11 — calorie logging reveals the booze problem; last hurrah at Sarah Petit’s Belly Up release, then Guinness and Powers at the Old Sod
Dolly Parton doubleheader — Whistle Stop Sept 23 + Sarah Petit’s Dolly Day at the Old Sod Sept 25; Honky Tonk Angels and Grand Ole Barbecue on Oct 11
New music block: Chartreuse “Nothing Serves,” album Seven, and an all-Chloe-Lou hour
Name That Tune Battle Royale: Eric controls the chaos — Kirby 31, Travis 27; Marty Robbins to Mobb Deep to Gloria Gaynor
Donkey Kong rivalry with Yvonne, Rubik’s cubes on a pogo stick, lawn darts, Skip-It shin trauma, Thriller at age six, and when PG-13 was invented
