    "comment": "Featured on today's In Our Headphones podcast, Host Evie Stokes talks to KEXP DJ Jewel about Florida-based psych rock band Velvet Meadow and their song “The Velvet Showdown.” Jewel speculates that this might be one of the first diss tracks aimed at A.I. – setting their sights on the A.I. band The Velvet Sundown. The song comes from their 2025 self-released album, Saturday Morning Meadowlies.\n\nYou can listen to this episode, and past episodes of In Our Headphones here:\nhttps://www.kexp.org/podcasts/in-our-headphones/",
