Episodes
They're just some Teeeeenage Giiiiizzards, bay-beeee! And they entered the world with a fun, raw, garage-y sound.
Somehow, Joe and Spenser never talked about King Gizzard's earliest singles and first EP until now... fifty-eight episodes into the show's existence. But it's okay, because Stu himself says it's not canon.
Get ready to learn a new vocabulary word along the way. Oh, and if you're into tangible, physical props used ...
Fall is in the air in Podagon's neck of the woods, so it's time to build an imaginary King Gizzard acoustic coffeehouse setlist!
Spenser flies solo for a guided tour through a sometimes-chill, sometimes-off-the-wall Gizz show consisting of listeners' favorite acoustic tunes. Many surprises await! Plus, a quick reflection on Stu and Joey's recent interview on Triple J.

So... what'd we think?! This one's all about the summer 2026 tour, with KGLW hitting Field of Vision, Forest Hills, and a special "Under the K Bridge" park set in Brooklyn. This episode touches 'em all.
Catch the musings of Joe and Spenser and... another guy?? Yep, Spenser's brother, Evan, makes a guest appearance. He excitedly joined the fun for Forest Hills rave night, and it happened to be his FIRST EVER Gizz show.

This episode is all about watah, fiyah, clouds and... ice. And it's also about ALIEN METAL, the techno sensation that's sweeping the nations!

The can has been kicked long enough... it's time for Joe and Spenser to FINALLY tackle one of the most epic chapters in King Gizzard history, 2017's Murder of the Universe!
It's a dense one, of course, so Part 1 focuses on the Altered Beast suite. Stay tuned next Wednesday for Part 2 of the MoTU discussion, covering the Lord of Lightning and Han-Tyumi suites!
2016 article in Tone Deaf on controversy over KGLW's ARIA awards win:
Australian saxophonist and clarinetist Archibald Pommelhorse joins the pod for a fun convo! He touches on growing up in a small town north of Melbourne, his own musical explorations, and, of course, his work on CAVS' Sojourn record.
Later on in the ep, Archibald hashes on the depressing futility of his favorite Aussie football team, and he also hints at something new in the works. Hmmm...

For the first time, Joe and Spenser dedicate an episode to a Gizz side project, and Mr. Michael Cavanagh gets the honors!
From his percussion-only debut to his lushly-layered latest release, Mickey Cavs is a master behind the kit.
Be prepared for references to old movies, Neil Peart, and Donkey Kong.

From possibility, to actuality! For the first time, Joe and Spenser tackle two albums in one episode.
Who says "Timelaaaand" in Timeland? Where did Ambrose's "Shrimpomaniac" alter ego come from? And which of the two guys has a mildly unfortunate personal story involving tympanis? All of these questions (and more) are addressed in this two-for-one special!

Our discontented winter is giving way to sunny springtime, and Joe has curated a solo episode to celebrate!

Time for a side quest! Joe and Spenser give you a "Gizz Guide" on suggested entry points for those looking to delve into King Gizzard’s kaleidoscopic discography, based on your (or your friend's) musical tastes.
They finish on a fun note with a homemade version of "Gizz Heardle." Find out who gets absurdly lucky with easy songs to guess, and who gets absolutely screwed!
Also, this was the first time in show history that...
Who can you count on to spend almost TWO HOURS talking about a 23-MINUTE record? Why, Joe and Spenser, of course.
In perhaps one of their most off-the-rails album discussions, the guys explain how simple music, simpler lyrics, and a WHOLE lot of youthful eexuberance make Willoughby's Beach a delightful listen.

Podagon Infinity is the podcast that opens the door to all things King Gizzard & the Lizard Wizard!
As we all celebrate Gizzmas, it's time to put a bow on 2025! Orchestras, raves, debuts... Joe and Spenser reflect on all of the exciting things KGLW did this year. They also dig into your messages and reveal what music they consumed the most (perhaps even too much).
Along the way, the guys discuss Joey's piss jokes, hot (music) singles in YOUR area, and a reminder to beware of ROBOT SLOP!
After a short holiday break, Podagon Infini...
How many time signatures can KGLW use in one album? What "creative" methods did medieval tyrants use to torture dissenters? What special ability do caribou possess? Thankfully, this episode provides answers to all of the above!
You should also know that this album discussion left Joe and Spenser thoroughly exhausted, but also quite fulfilled as podcasters and Gizz nerds.
