In today's episode we discuss many things: Overdrive gears, the 1934 Telecommunications Act, Chad Allen. But one thing is more important than all the others. We made it to letter B!

In this crossover Ben reviews an album chosen by Roberto, and visa versa. Those albums are One X by Three Days Grace and Hot by the Squirrel Nut Zippers. In this episode we discuss album first loves, cool school bus drivers, and the difference between a jewel case and a digipak.
Todays episode was edited by Ben instead of Andrew. I am so, so sorry.
For anyone curious, the $26.00 Roberto used to purchase this album in 2006 is equivalent to $38.93 in 2023 money.

In this exciting episode Di and I talk about America. America is a colloquial name for the western hemisphere of the planet Earth, which is itself the third rocky planet in the Sol system. It was named for Italian map maker Amerigo Vespucci over the course of the sixteenth century due to oh wait I did it again.

It is a lame hipster thing to say you like everything except rap, country, and classical. Personally I think classical is fine, except that also it is annoying and I hate it. Todays episode is a bunch of music by Brahms who lived in very interesting times but who was not really a showy person himself. Andrew helps us talk about romance.

I have a complex relationship with this album. I suppose this is what most people would call a guilty pleasure? But the reasons for such lingering guilt as I have about enjoying this record are complicated and probably not obvious to anyone who is not a record store guy. Sadly, I am a record store guy, so I can’t just enjoy things.
