Awesome keyboard (Hammond B3?) driven rock. Sounds like Strawberry Alarm Clock. Their hit song, Incense and peppermint barely sounds like the rest of their music.

People have always pegged them as a one hit wonder but they only had that hit to prove they could. All of their other music is much better and they along with bands like The Doors were your first "Jam Bands" inspiring bands like The Grateful Dead and The Allman Brothers.
 
Bright Like Neon Love and Zonoscope are decent too (although Zono is very uneven - and I never bother with the final 15 minute track that is at least 13 minutes too long).   I skipped Free Your Mind for some reason but just bought Haiku from Zero a few weeks back and enjoying it a lot lately.

Jimmy Eat World's "Clarity" turned 20 last week, and upon revisiting, I realized how much I loved this record.

I lost interest in their pop-focused later releases, but this one still holds up:

 
Wasn't listening to podcasts before, but I recently found Potterless - A ~25 year old reading Harry Potter for the first time, not knowing almost anything about the series, which I myself haven't read in ages. And it's priceless. Him and guests are over analyzing so much. But, also explore some nice details and give interesting commentary. Lot's of fun.
 
Revisiting some albums I bought on CD during a phase where I was moving around a lot and not buying LPs. Forgot how lovely this one was:
