Max and Ryan read some listener poll results and give mini reviews for the new Black Keys and Young Jesus albums while waiting on Ben to finish being harassed with work calls in his off-hours. Then in a seemingly begrudging attempt to lighten the mood, it’s time for our 2nd Annual installment of The Posi Purge (09:28) - centered almost exclusively around discussions on food.
Then it's JEFF FREAKING ROSENSTOCK (14:44) here to talk about the heartbreak of not making a perfect hardcore album at 13 years old, how that disappointment helped to re-shape his priorities as to what he hopes to accomplish as a musician, the persisting allure of giving up, which 4 songs he’d choose to personify his career, what's left on the bucket list and a series of rapid fire either/ors regarding Spider-Man versus Batman, Larry or Jerry and what was the best album of 1994: Dookie or The Blue Album?
