Chanter Rant Podcast

Pooh Bear returns! On this episode our good friend Big Rab joins our heroes as they discuss the backlash from the judging episode of the Big Rab Show, solo gig fails, and sexual gestures. The recorder breaks 20 minutes in but luckily the boys were live streaming the episode, so The Six jump in to save the day! Will our heroes be able to put out a show next week with Fooko in New York? Is this episode out late because Josh had to edit it? Will Rab get a word in this time? Listen and find out!

The podcast gods smile down on Chanter Rant as the Great McCain Piper Debacle explodes the morning of the recording. They read some emails and play some voicemails, including a special retort to his critiques from Andrew Douglas himself. Then they get into the bagpipe topic of the year, the McCain funeral piper. They talk about how this sort of thing happens and go in circles about how to fix it in the future. The guys solve nothing but sure do get drunk trying.

Josh attempts to set Andy up by bringing in an ex band mate to rip him a new ahole, but in true Chanter Rant fashion, the guest backs out. So without a back up plan, they go on with the show anyway and talk about the dating life as a pipe bander. With Josh newly entering the dating pool, he asks Fooko for advice on Tinder and they discuss whether using a picture of playing pipes in your profile helps or hinders. Nothing gets solved but isn't it about the journey and not the destination anyway?!

Well it happened again... the Worlds Pipe Band Championships, and as it turns out... Josh was wrong again. American pipe bands did really well at the Worlds this year, winning grade 2 and 3b. We get into a big discussion on how Trump made American Pipe Bands great again. What a great year for pipe banding!

In the latest installment of Chanter Rant, Fooko has many surprises in store for MaGerkin. After the Debacle at Flagstaff, many people are upset with #twodrunkijeets. Andy knows all the deets but Josh, who has been traveling, does not so Andy surprises him with all the complaints to rile him up "live". In a fantastic sh*t show, everything goes down in flames. Is this the end for our drunk crusaders?! Has Josh really quit the band that shall not be named? Has Fooko's sick d*ck finally cleared up?

We hope you enjoyed the last episode of the Chanter Rant podcast and especially the cliff hanger ending... suckers! In Part 2 to that discussion, Andrew Douglas in back. They accidentally fall into the discussion everyone has been waiting for about associations and if they are necessary and how they can provide value to their customers. They look up the mission statements of Euspba, Wusbpa and RSPBA and try to figure out what the hell they intend to do. Should you be afraid of your association? Hmmm.... Andrew Douglas is the proprietor of the Piper's Dojo and Dojo University. He is also a front rank member of Inveraray and District Pipe Band, current World Champions, at least for another couple weeks!

The intended episode about the Flagstaff games went horribly wrong, so instead, we present to you the prerecorded episode with Piper's Dojo proprietor and front rank member of Inveraray and District Pipe Band, Andrew Douglas. The first part of this two part episode dives headlong in to the issue of what everyone else gets right about piping and drumming and what the US gets wrong. Is it a question of culture? Or geography? Or something else. Don't ask the Chanter Rant guys... they are two drunk idiots. But Andrew has some thoughts that might be worth while to you. Or not. We don't care.

As the title suggests, this weeks episode is completely lost in the beginning as the guys did no prep work at all. Fortunately, DJ Ingrahamanam was there to help steer the ship in some direction other than Port Nonsense. The biggest consistent topic is the Battle for Recruitment and how do pipe bands get people in the door and what methods do they use to start them off on pipes and drums. Good luck following the path of this one folks.

This week, the guys review long overdue voicemails and commentary from weeks past. Fast Eddie sends in the first Chanter Rant rap song and Pipe Major McPaddy from the east coast calls in to take umbrage with our critiques of service bands. Local piper Clair, newest member of "the band that shall not be named", joins us for our topic about student pipers and joining an established band while still learning to play this god forsaken instrument.

In a special 4th of July episode, the guys take it upon themselves to speak for all American pipe bands and declare their independence from the tyranny of the Brits and their archaic way of pipe band life... well sort of. In true Chanter Rant fashion, they get drunk and abandon the revolution and any sense of reality. They then bullshit with special guest Colin Armstrong, Pipe Major of the Los Angeles Scots Pipe Band about god knows what. There is something about the European Championships and the San Diego Highland Games. Eventually, they finally ask Colin some questions about his band. Good luck with this one folks! Please visit the LA Scots fundraiser page and help send them to the Worlds! http://fnd.us/a1MoD5?ref=ab_61ecE2_sh_5apjgdWpg4u5apjgdWpg4u You can also find them at: https://www.facebook.com/lascots/ or look for them on Twitter @lascots ***Adult language and situations*** *** Opinions expressed here are not representative of any organization of which we belong*** Follow us on social medi

On this episode of the Chanter Rant, the guys try their first live stream podcast and go back to the old way of doing things... drunk! Some of the six send in voicemails and the guys respond. Then they get a visit from Tin Foil Hat guy to discuss the idea that the Grade 1 pipe band contests are rigged. We finish off by predicting the San Diego Highland Games as only two ijeets can do.

On this episode, Cahill returns from his long journey through the Orient, and has plenty of HPV to show for it. #oneofthesix, Honey Bourbon, sends in a pic of boobs so the boys have to drink in response. Then they go back in time and try to remember what it was like to start this journey to the promised land of piping. Mostly, we sh*it on Angel and Cahill in a veiled attempt to figure out how to motivate people. ***Adult language and situations*** *** Opinions expressed here are not representative of any organization of which we belong*** Follow us on social media at: www.facebook.com/chanterrant www.instagram.com/chanterrant www.twitter.com/chanterrant Join in the conversation with mean comments or #chanterrant!

In this weeks episode, we answer some listener mail about our most hated tunes, open a time capsule regarding the UK Championships and respond to some other podcasters in the pipe band world.

In this weeks show, Meatloaf Kelly rants back at Fast Eddie with a great voicemail about penis size. The boys then discuss the ups and downs of pipe bands starting their competition seasons and go over some news stories. They finish up with a fun interview with Brad Green, piper from Seven Nations and Pipe Major of Rosie O'Grady's Highlanders Pipes and Drums. We talk about life on the road with a touring act, the differences between rock life and the pipe band life, and of course get into groupies, which is what everyone really wants to get in to anyway.

In this long awaited follow up to the Dirtbag Olympics, the boys wait three and a half hours to track down Adele and get drunk on Old Smuggles Scotch in the process. They play a couple voicemails from listeners and discuss the pros and cons of putting the word Chanter in the title of the show. Then, Adele is found and they exchange stories both personal and public of horrible pipe band shenanigans. This one is not for the faint of heart! ***Adult language and situations*** *** Opinions expressed here are not representative of any organization of which we belong*** Follow us on social media at: www.facebook.com/chanterrantpodcast/ www.instagram.com/chanterrant/ twitter.com/chanterrant Join in the conversation with mean comments or #chanterrant!

We have a Saturday morning hangover show thanks to the crew going out the night before to celebrate Fooko's birthday. Kelly, local musician and booking agent, joins the show and takes issue with the Rant's suggestions for her industry. She brings a gift for Andy to open on the air and things quickly descend into why he shouldn't use the social media when drinking. If you are patient, a special Guest arrives to weigh in on the nonsense. ***Adult language and situations*** *** Opinions expressed here are not representative of any organization of which we belong*** Follow us on social media at: www.facebook.com/chanterrantpodcast/ www.instagram.com/chanterrant/ twitter.com/chanterrant Join in the conversation with mean comments or #chanterrant!

In a very special Mother's Day edition of the podcast, Fooko is off visiting family, so he calls in and they get drunk with their mothers. They review the history of these two ijeets, discuss the lyrics to Beastie Boys songs, and get in to the pros and cons of growing up in the internet era as it pertains to waxing doorknobs. There might be something in there about music but who knows.

This week, we interview Buggie, the piping and drumming chair of the LV Highland Games. He rips us a new one for ripping a judge a new one a couple episodes ago. We issue apologies and try to figure out how we got into this mess. Then we go back to a ball-busting comedy show making outlandish announcements. ***Adult language and situations*** *** Opinions expressed here are not representative of any organization of which we belong*** Follow us on social media at: www.facebook.com/chanterrantpodcast/ www.instagram.com/chanterrant/ twitter.com/chanterrant Join in the conversation with mean comments or #chanterrant!

We get into various subjects like the Jordanian Military Pipe Band, putting your time in at the Worlds and finding out why Joe hates Facebook. Cahill's Corner returns and we play a game of "How Big is Joe's Penis". 5/6/18 - Cahill's Corner - is edited out for his safety's sake. The sh*t has hit the fan.
