The Smooth Sailing Podcast is a weekly podcast dedicated mainly to Yacht Rock, but will venture off the yacht during the off season. It's hosted by Jason of Up In This Brain and Jasen of SGMR Podcast. The general format of the show is that each host chooses a song, discusses the history and chart position, and plays the song. Regular features, as of Episode 4 include a "Yachting Beverage" or a "Sofa Beverage" during the off season.
During Episode 27 (No Way He's a Neville), Jasen introduced the challenge to find do a cheesier song than "Walk the Dinosaur" by Was (Not Was). Submissions can be tweeted @AlienCG @upinthisbrain or @smoothsailingpc. There is no time limit.
