Description

The Mix Tape Mafia decides the best songs to fit a certain theme, and delivers an incredible playlist each episode. Along the way, hosts Jason Papagan and Anthony Pisch nominate songs back and forth, crack wise and determine which songs make the cut, and which end up on the cutting room floor. Every episode is a musical and comical feast for the ears that results in a supreme "Mix Tape" playlist for the listeners to add to their Spotify, Apple Music, etc. Why are we the Mix Tape Mafia?... because we're paisans and what we say goes. Don't like it? send us a tweet and let us know. Strong opinions stir the stew...

Ep. 169: "Doin'" Time

2026/09/01

Well, we teased it for you (so to speak) during the last episode, so here it is... the long awaited episode about... DOIN' !! aka, "Doin' it," "Doin' the Deed," "Making Whoopee," or however you like to phrase it. We've compiled our top songs that are made for makin' it! A saucy, sultry mix tape to tee you up for some hot DOIN'!

Ep. 168: Doin' "Time"

2026/08/27

It's a two-sided playlist, of sorts. This episode will bring together songs that are related in some way to criminal activity... aka, "doin' time." We'll hear about criminals, renegades, outlaws, detectives, and any other song we can relate to the law or breakin' it.

Ep. 167: Sound FX

2026/08/20

Here comes a mix tape featuring all the best songs that have some kind of sound effect or sound in them that isn't a musical instrument.

Ep. 166: Dog Days are Over

2026/08/19

In honor of Biscuit, the Studio Dog, we threw down an impromptu mix tape of all songs about, inspired by, or mentioning dogs or dog-related things. It's a little sloppy, kind of like the studio dog, but beautiful all the same. The Studio Dog did not die, but she's moving on to live out her final years at her other owner's studio. We'll miss her so, but we'll share news soon of the Sammy Hagar Studio Dog who will be joining us soon.

Ep. 165: It's my Podcast and I'll CRY if I want to

2026/08/04

Don't shed a tear for the Mix Tape Mafia... we're just compiling an ultimate playlist of the best songs with crying or tears in the title (and maybe even a little something that makes you weep). We'll hear from Guns & Roses, Taylor Swift, Aerosmith, Van Halen, and a bunch more sobbing songs.

Ep. 164: Give & Take

2026/07/24

It's the best songs that feature the word give or take in the title. We'll ping pong and assemble another dynamite playlist where we'll hear from The New Radicals, Madonna, Supertramp, The All-American Rejects, Sammy Hagar, The Eagles, A-Ha, John Denver, ABBA, Hozier, and more.

Ep. 163: Hot & Cold

2026/07/12

It's the McD.L.T. episode! A delicious playlist of the best songs with "hot" or "cold" in the title. Plenty of mafia banter and some bangers from Foreigner, Dua Lipa, Chris Stapleton, Van Halen, and more.

Ep. 162: Dress Code

2026/07/06

If you can wear it, you'll hear it. Sort of. We've got a mix tape with the best songs that feature clothing or accessories in the title. In honor of this week's Paris Haute Couture fashion week, we've got a great Spotify playlist featuring Weezer, Corey Hart, Prince, Madonna, Taylor Swift, Sara Bareilles, Twenty One Pilots, and more!

Ep. 161: MTM Fight Night – Billy Joel vs. Elton John

2026/07/02

It's our first super heavyweight battle in the MTM Fight Night ring!! The Piano Man and the Rocket Man are squaring off for a 15 round bout!!!

Ep. 160: Tickling the Ivories

2026/06/26

In a follow-up to our heralded "Gui-tar!" episode, with iconic opening guitar riffs, we've leveled up our Steinways (and Steinmans) for the best mix tape we could assemble of songs with iconic piano intros. As you can imagine, the piano man and the rocket man will be heard from, along with the likes of Jewel, Motley Crue, Marc Cohn, Counting Crows, The Beatles, and so many more. Let's tickle some ivories!

Ep. 159: Them's the Breaks

2026/06/26

Breaking up is hard to do, but putting together an MTM playlist of the best songs with "break" or "broken" in the title is pretty easy to do. We'll break it down with a little Mr. Mister, Matthew Wilder, Green Day, Joe Jackson, Domino David, and more!

Ep. 158: It's About Time

2026/06/19

Well, it's a fitting theme for this playlist, given how long it's been since we dropped a new episode. But this one is well worth the wait. It's literally... about TIME. Or at least, all the best songs with "time" in the title. We'll hear from Huey Lewis & the News, REO Speedwagon, Sublime, The Rolling Stones, The Doors, Billy Joel, Styx, Owl City, Cyndi Lauper, and so many more bangers. Carve out a chunk of time for this one, you won't regret it.

Ep. 157: War Games

2026/04/05

The Gap Band, Pat Benatar, Billy Joel, The White Stripes, and a bunch more artists are helping us bring joy during war times... by way of a war-term-themed playlist!

Ep. 156: UnCovered

2026/04/03

It's time for a special treat. The mafia is uncovering songs that you know, but didn't know that before they were hits, somebody else you know recorded the song first. We uncovering songs that we didn't know were covers, and were covers by big stars that nobody knew about! Have a listen and you'll catch on to what we mean in this tremendous mix tape playlist of UnCovers.

Ep. 155: What's Yours Is Mine

2026/03/26

It's part two of our best mix tape of songs that feature yours or mine in the title...
