There’s no set timetable for how often these will appear, but the format opens the door to new ways of experiencing My Weekly Mixtape — including quick hitters when the moment calls for it, whether it’s reacting to breaking news , a surprise album release , or a story that simply can’t wait . This premiere Mixtape Moment was inspired by this week’s news that Bruce Johnston is stepping away from The Beach Boys after more than six decades with the band. So join me as I celebrate Bruce’s remarkable journey with the band, while sharing a personal story about how a simple act of mid-concert kindness — a bottle of FIJI Water — became an unforgettable memory for this longtime fan . 🎙️ LEARN MORE 🎵 Hear the Playlists / Browse the Catalog: ⁠ https://myweeklymixtape.com⁠ 💬 Join the Mixtaper Community (Patreon): ⁠ https://patreon.com/myweeklymixtape⁠ 🌐 Connect on Social: ⁠ https://myweeklymixtape.com/social-media⁠ 📧 Email the Show / Contact: ⁠ https://myweeklymixtape.com/contact⁠ 👕 Shop MWM Gear: https://myweeklymixtape-shop.fourthwall.com/","meta_description":"Welcome to the launch of a new kind of bonus episode I’m calling Mixtape Moments — short stories sparked by a recent news item or an anecdote I haven’t ye…","key_points":[],"chapters":[],"topics":[],"duration_seconds":539,"processing_state":"not_requested","actions":[{"name":"request_transcript","method":"POST","url":"https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/my-weekly-mixtape-music-discovery-nostalgia-5972905/episodes/mixtape-moment-bruce-johnston-a-bottle-of-fiji-water-and-a-beach-boys-story-i-ll-never-forget/transcription-requests","description":"Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode."},{"name":"read_markdown","method":"GET","url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/my-weekly-mixtape-music-discovery-nostalgia-5972905/mixtape-moment-bruce-johnston-a-bottle-of-fiji-water-and-a-beach-boys-story-i-ll-never-forget.md","description":"Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource."}]}}
