Season 3 Episode 32: #FreshCuts Vol. 72

Wellington Davis, Nathan Ferrell, Jesse Morgan, Travis Boots, and Bryan Mosby join your host Burke Wasson to break down our songs of the week from #FreshCuts Vol. 72. Wellington shares a big piece of his personal journey. Nathan ponders nominating songs to mess with people. Jesse shares his concern for people who nominate sad songs (even though he did, too!). Travis marvels at 2025 being a great year for new rap. And Mosby questions how Burke doesn't know a certain song that made our countdown this week. It's a good time.
