This week we're excited to be joined by Tyler Curtis, who we've been looking forward to chatting with for a while now!

This week we're going to release our intro conversation and Set 1 of 1.1.11, and release Set 2 and that discussion next week. Another attempt to mix things up and make things better.

This week we're excited to be joined by Steven Hyden, a music journalist for Grantland and a self-described Phish "noob." We chatted about 10.31.96, the Halloween show that of course included the cover of Remain in Light, by the Talking Heads. Here's an article that Steven wrote about Phish for Grantland, which is a great read. We got a lot of good feedback on the new format last week, and so we're going to continue to just include the guest conversation, and point you to PhishTracks, Phish On Demand App or Live Phish to listen to the epic Halloween album from 10.31.96.

This week we have Adam Menzo joining us, who picked a show that was his first and is near and dear to our hearts, 12.6.97 from The Palace. All 3 of us were lucky enough to have been there, and this show still ranks as one of the best in Phish history. New Experiment! We're trying something different this week. Instead of including the show audio in the podcast, we're going to point you to a few places where you can hear it (links below). Because there are so many ways to listen to shows these days, we wanted to save some bandwidth/file size and deliver the guest conversation while letting you listen to the music in whatever way works for you. Chapters below. Listen to 12.6.97 on PhishTracks, Phish On Demand App or Live Phish. Please please send us feedback about this experiment and let us know what you think.

This week, we wanted to revisit Coventry, 10 years later, but in a different way than we usually approach the podcast. From our perspective, the music was, for the most part, bad. So we're not playing any music from the weekend. You can hear it all via Phish On Demand or PhishTracks. (The Jibboo, Melt, AC/DC Bag and Reba are highlights for us.) But we wanted to share some personal memories, because it was a unique and great experience with the actual people we were with. I (RJ) had the luxury of being on vacation this summer with almost all of the friends who we were with at Coventry. One night on vacation, sitting around the table, we shared stories and recollections from that weekend. And 10 years later, we're at another peak, as is the band. So for this episode, Brad and I chat for a little while and then we share the conversation. As usual, please review us on iTunes and send comments and feedback to helpingfriendlypodcast at gmail dot com, and follow us on Twitter.

This week we were very fortunate to be joined by 3 great tapers and members of the Phish community: Craig Hillwig, Lenny Stubbe and Scott Bernstein. Tapers have a unique perspective on the band, the music, and they've been the way we've heard most of this band's music for the majority of the last 30 years. We're grateful for all of the work they do. The format of this episode is slightly different. We asked each of our guests to pick a few tracks that represent quality audience recordings from across Phish's history. For each pick, we play the track and then discuss the recording and the music. Before the tracks, we have a great conversation with our 3 guests. Really fun episode. Chapter markers are below. Visit http://hfpod.blogspot.com/ for more information. Lastly, please take a moment and review us on iTunes!
