Got any questions for @tasminarcher.bsky.social about her fantastic just-released-today album, A Cauldron of Random Notes, or anything else? I'm doing a Q&A episode with Tasmin soon. If you want Tasmin to answer your question, drop it in the replies here, and she'll respond on the YMAAA episode!

The new YMAAA with Juliana Hatfield is here! We packed a lot of discussion into an hour -- the Xanadu soundtrack, Juliana's covers albums (including her upcoming ELO album), a duet that wasn't meant to be and so much more! (JH photo credit: David Doobinin.) podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/1...

If you know what these two have in common, you can probably guess the next featured album on YMAAA.
