ep26: MM!PP! Turns ONE!!!

Sounds cliche, but we truly cannot believe we made it to ONE! We started this podcast one year ago with the idea of having a part time hobby sharing the music we love. With all the love and support we’ve had from friends, fam, and listeners we not only made rad mixtapes but have fallen in love with discovering music again. We really hope you’ve enjoyed what you’ve heard so far because we have wayyyyyyyyy more mixtapes for you!

What better way to celebrate turning one than to make a mix of songs that went to Number 1!. There are some odd balls in this mix, take a listen and HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO US!



MM!PP! Singles no. 3

We like to keep you satisfied in between episodes. That’s why hosts Mike and Julia pull together songs they can’t get enough of and want to share with you, our favorite listener.

ep25: Ska - The Second Wave

Mixtape Mixtape! Podcast Podcast! proudly brings to you the second installment on the history of Ska music. This episode features not only music from the 2-Tone era in the UK, but also killer U.S. Ska bands that kept the scene alive in-between the second and third wave. We recommend that the best way to listen to this new show is in a fine-tailored suit and pork pie hat.

ep24: The Luck of the Mixtape

Irish we had a better name for this episode, but well here we are. In honor of St. Paddy’s Day hosts Julia and Mike pulled together their favorite Irish bands, old and new, for your listening pleasure. Don’t worry, there are very few Irish pun and drinking stereotypes. Just good ol’ fashioned fiddles and Tony Mahoney of course!

MM!PP! Singles no. 1

Hi! We’re trying something new! We made a mini episode to keep you satisfied in-between the biggins. Hosts Mike and Julia pull together the #1 song they can’t stop listening to this week. Take a listen! Let us know what you think too! Do you have a song you think we’d be in to? Share with us!

ep23: Banned from the 80's

The 80’s are back! In podcast form! Mike and Julia bring you a mix of the not-so-overplayed songs of the 1980s. Expect a lot of odd balls, “why’s?”, “ohhhh that song” and “you guys have weird taste” in this week’s show and less Duran Duran, Pet Shop Boys, and Wham! So throw your hair in a side pony tail, scrunch your neon socks and hop in your Delorean and take a listen!

ep20: MM!PP! Hits the Gym

New year, new us! Well, kind of. We here at MM!PP! enjoyed the holidays a little too much. So now it’s time to visit the gym more than once a month and get fit and fab for that Summer bod. Julia and Mike pull together their favorite songs to keep them motivate (or distracted) while on the treadmill. Mike is a little sick during this recording but we assure you we made him go run anyways because NO EXCUSES!

ep19: Jamaica Ska

It’s time folks! The show that no has asked for yet Julia and Mike continue to talk about, SKA. It’s time to start our Ska series. We’re making super rad mixtapes each featuring the different waves of the Ska genre. We are big fans of this genre and it’s shaped us in very different but excellent ways. Please enjoy Wave 1: Jamaica Ska.

ep 18: R.E.M.ind Me Why I Like this Band?

In the last MM!PP! show of 2018 we thought we’d try something new. Welcome to our “Best Of Mix” show where Mike and Julia pick an influential or favorite band and make you a mixtape using only that band’s songs.

Kicking off this new style of mixtape of ours is R.E.M. They happen to be one of host Mike’s favorite bands ever! We go though each and every album, talk a lot, and pick our favorite songs off each. It’s a perfect mixtape for R.E.M. beginners and super fans alike!

ep17: No Mariah Carey Zone (It's Christmas)

It’s December. It’s officially ok to listen to Holiday music. Honestly, anything before December should be banned. Get your holiday groove on with Mike and Julia and some not-so-traditional songs for this upcoming Holiday season. One rule in this episode: No Mariah Carey allowed!!!! We love her, but seriously, let’s move on.

ep16: Two Minute Madness

Black Friday is stressful. Music can be calming. NOT TODAY! in keeping with the spirit of Black Friday Madness Julia and Mike chose fast paced, rage inducing songs all under 2 minutes. Perfect for when you’re driving around the parking lot at the mall for an hour! Or when you’re in that 30 minute check out line! Or when you’re fighting that old lady for the last Tickle Me Elmo (is that still a thing?)

ep15: PSL's for Everyone!

It’s Fall y’all! Or Autumn, depending on where you live. We pulled together a soothing selection of the most pumpkin-y songs to get you through the fall season. So grab your pumpkin blanket, your pumpkin drink, your pumpkin cookies, your pumpkin pumpkin, your pumpkin cat…..

ep14: It's a Halloweenie!

Halloween is right around the corner y’all! MM! PP! fam is back with some extra spoopy creepy songs to get yourself in the mood for Halloween this year. It’s truly frightening how good these songs are! Whether you’re going trick-or-treat-ing, partying or trying to scare yourself on your drive home, we got the right songs to get you in the Halloweenie mood!



ep13: California with Laura Neptuna of The Neptunas!!!

Friends! We are so happy to have our very first guest on the show. This week we have Laura Neptuna of The Neptunas, an all female pop punk-surf band. Laura is a super rad fan of the show and has super rad taste in music so we invited her on to be our first guest. Laura had the honor of selecting this week’s mixtape topic: California. We live in and love this great state. We hope we did our best to pay homage to it.
