Episode Notes

This week, we assigned ourselves a little homework to get out of our usual TMBG listening comfort zone. When there are so many albums to choose from, some of them naturally float to the top based on individual taste, and others get overlooked. But why? As we find out, it’s not necessarily because they’re bad! In fact, maybe we’ll find some new things we appreciate about them.

Join us as we bring S-E-X-X-Y back, spotlight a few other songs too, and find out this episode's Sound of the Week and Word of the Week! (Please excuse the audio glitches in this episode, we’re doing repairs on our space capsule.)
