Think the party ends when the booze does? Think again. The KillJoy Afterparty Podcast is proof that alcohol-free doesn’t mean fun-free—and Season 2 just dropped a playlist that’s as catchy, quirky, and bold as the guests themselves.
Hosted by the unstoppable duo Rude and Goody, The KillJoy Afterparty is the podcast love child of Nashville storytelling and sober sass. Each episode showcases a new AF (alcohol-free) guest who shares their story, spills some truth, and usually gets a little weird—and it’s all wrapped up with a musical bow. That’s right: at the end of every episode, Rude and Goody co-create an original song inspired by their convo with that week’s guest.
And now? You can stream all 15 of those wild, heartfelt, laugh-out-loud songs in one perfectly unpredictable Spotify album.

???? What’s the Vibe?
Imagine if the Muppets started a sober band in Nashville after therapy. That’s the vibe.
The KillJoy Afterparty playlist is equal parts comedy, vulnerability, empowerment, and pure creative chaos. Each track distills a guest’s story into a quirky musical snapshot—from serious wisdom to outrageous one-liners.
Whether it’s “Faster Than Light” with Chris Marshall or “Put the Profit First” with Mike Michalowicz, the songs are a masterclass in turning conversation into a chorus.
???? Meet the Tracks (and the People Behind Them)
Here’s a sneak peek at what (and who) you’ll hear on Season 2’s playlist:

???? Why It Matters
This isn’t just music—it’s a movement. The KillJoy Afterparty lives at the intersection of sober living, self-expression, and creative community. And like everything Rude touches, it’s got a heart the size of Tennessee. The playlist proves what so many sober folks already know: the party doesn’t stop when the drinks do. If anything, the real fun is just beginning.
So whether you’re sober, sober-curious, or just looking for something genuinely fresh and entertaining—this playlist will make you laugh, reflect, and maybe even dance around your kitchen.
???? Bonus: What Is KillJoy NA Bottle Shop?
Oh, and ICYMI: Rude didn’t just start a podcast—she started a whole damn business.
KillJoy is Nashville’s first zero-proof bottle shop, where you can explore a curated selection of alcohol-free drinks that don’t suck. It’s a haven for the sober and sober-curious, run by people who actually know what they’re talking about (and won’t hand you a LaCroix and call it a party).
