Hello! We’ve recorded another episode of our radio show, “I Love My Wife,” and I think this one might be the best yet. Don’t be dismayed by our faces! The mix is pretty awesome. This episode was summer themed and hopefully that translates to the mix. A description:

Wife Material and Tough Love are both born and bred Chicagoans, but even they can admit that Chicago winters are brutal and to continue to stay in the city during the 5 to 6 months of below freezing temperatures is masochistic. But now summer has arrived and with it, all of the glorious perks of those few months in the middle of the year: sweet lake breezes, cold drinks, lots of daylight, and the pleasure of extended laziness. On the 5th episode of I Love My Wife, listen to some of the duo’s favorite noise and weird-oriented summer tracks. It’s perfect lazy leisure listening.

And the tracklist:

1. “Percussion Gun”//White Rabbits
2. “Wet Hair”//Japandroids

4. “Shoplifting”//The Slits
