The BlueSky home of the Permanent Record Podcast. Join us as we celebrate the best music of the 80s!
About an hour from now, we will be talking with an artist we love who released their first album 29 years ago, so with apologies to our friend, official PRP artist Josee Hare, we are going full 1990s for one day!

We are excited to share this MINOR ANNOUNCEMENT with everyone: BOWIE BINGO is back for the 2025 holiday season!!

After spending a few hours editing our upcoming episode, I have been reminded that there are actually TWO MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENTS made in this one episode. If yesterday's post about a single announcement had you excited, please increase your anticipation level appropriately. It should be DOUBLED!!

No lie - there will be a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT made during our next episode. And although I often use hyperbole as generously as I use salt, this time I'm NOT EVEN KIDDING AROUND!!

Be here on Friday for the excitement!!

As I begin to edit the next episode of our crossover with DJ Matt Williams, I wanted to take a moment to thank everyone for making Saturday the biggest download day in the history of the podcast! To everyone who has listened for years and to everyone who joined us for the first time: YOU ROCK!

Happy 36th anniversary to Depeche Mode's "Personal Jesus," released on this day in 1989!

Brian is pretty sure he spotted Sheena Easton on the beach today. Who agrees??
August 20, 2025 at 11:26 PM
As a reward for recording our last "Speak and Spell" episode, we drove to Emerald Isle, NC. We're on the beach today, but Sarah will verify that I edited the 2 hour 50 minute raw file this morning before we walked to the water. I only finished 5 minutes, but each journey begins with a single step!

Phil Collins reviewing one of my favorite Duran songs of all time. Ugh!

This tune is SOOOOOO good! Not sure why the majority of listeners don't agree!

Happy 71st birthday to Neil Tennant! Here's a shirt from the fantastic 2013 tour for their album "Electric." The Pet Shop Boys are truly one of the best live acts out there, as well as being one of the very best synthpop bands of all time!

I always picture it looking like this....
July 7, 2025 at 6:43 PM
If you have memories of Depeche Mode's debut album "Speak & Spell" to share with us, the time to do that is NOW! We'll be recording our next episode tomorrow and would love to include your thoughts! Call 724 490 8324 or go to speakpipe.com/permrecordpod and record a message-- no payphone needed!

Some of our friends gifted us a Ooni Karu 12 when we retired. It's really cool!!

After a rough day of taking notes on "Speak & Spell", we decided to try out our new pizza oven. Here's our first pie - it was delicious!!

We're ready for some Soft Cell and the mighty Simple Minds!! So excited to be seeing Jim and Charlie again!!
