The Ultimate Mixtape: A Musical Time Capsule Playlist, Vol. 2

My Weekly Mixtape’s 100th episode celebration continues with Volume 2 of The Ultimate Mixtape — a three-part series built around one deceptively simple question: If you could choose one song — any artist, any genre — to be sealed inside a time capsule for future listeners to discover years or decades from now… what would it be, and why?

For this project, I asked 65 past guests, friends of the show, and Patreon Mixtapers to give me their one essential pick. The result? A wildly diverse collection of songs spanning eras, genres, moods, and tempos.

But this isn’t just a list of answers. I’m treating these picks like a real cassette — carefully sequencing each track so the flow, pacing, and emotional arc actually matter.

Volume 2 features the next 20 selections. Stick around for Volume 3 to hear how The Ultimate Mixtapecomes together in full.

Guests appearing in Vol. 2 (in no particular order): Matt Scannell of Vertical Horizon, ZZ Ward, Jesse Dayton, Jon Loree of Tantric & Smile Empty Soul, Jamie DiTringo of The Sees, Jim Santora, Author of The Underrated Rock Book, Sherry Thomas of The Aquarian Magazine, along with fellow poodcaster, friends of the show and last (but not least!) Patreon Mixtaper Chad Lamasa!
