Welcome back to a very loose episode (have you noticed that Dan puts extra discussion at the end of the episode after the outro? There's some good stuff back there that is less about the songs, it was really fun discussion.)

We're back! A couple days late for Pride Month, but we needed to hit the Wednesday release day. We're going full pop on this episode with Troye Sivan. It was a great time recording, and there's some fun easter eggs at the end if you tune into those.

We're trying something new, and reactivating our feed! It's been too long, but we're back. We wanted to put out something quick and fun. Hopefully you're all still here, we've got plenty of full albums to come.

We're back with another guest! Looking at 2014's indie electronica groups Sylvan Esso's self titled album. It's fun!

Re-uploaded with the full ending! There's not much that got missed before, but it's all there now. We're back with a fresh coat of paint! Do you like Last Vestige but don't want to listen to it with the album open next to you? Good news! We've done some upgrades, and are inviting some people close to us to come by and talk about albums that meant something to them.

It's our last episode before we move to our new format! Looking at a very cool album that inspired a number of bands going forward.

In this episode we're discussing the musical comedy of what happens when a neuroscientist writes two songs based on surveys. It's...strange to say the least.

We're taking a look at Dr. House's tribute to the New Orleans sound. You've seen him diagnose patients and sometimes play piano with them, but here he shows his love by covering a whole host of songs. But seriously we're bringing back our discussions of covers or interpretations, and actors getting music deals.
