7. Gentleman
01:55:00||Season 3, Ep. 7Tonight, this week (x100) we celebrate our 100th episode (aaa) by talking Fela Kuti's 1973 Afrobeat classic, Gentleman. The cover of the original makes a salient point about colonization and culture, so was it ignorant to thoughtlessly slap our cat on there? I hope not!Also up for discussion: We wishcast that one Arcade Fire brother has a soul (not the criminal one), none of us can name a single woman (we are trying to be woke but too stupid to do it good), and we return to an early BevCheck in honor of us having done this 100 times and run out of ideas around ep 6.10/10 You’re Great is presented by The Alternative.

5. Chitty Chitty Bang Bang
01:48:00||Season 3, Ep. 5CONTENT WARNING: Chris is loudly eating Doritos (nacho) into the mic for the first two minutes, and we are talking like morons about Sidney Sweeney and North Sentinel Island(?) for the first ten, so skip that far in for a better listening experience. Also: this week we decided musicals are albums so we watched Chitty Chitty Bang Bang with our partners and boy... it is a film and it is somehow 2.5 hours long which is insane. There's flying cars, an old man living in a toilet, and a boomercore "I hate my wife" song that absolutely whaps-- TONIGHT!

1. Best of 2025
02:01:10||Season 3, Ep. 12026 is here and you know what that means-- 2 months ago all the music publications listed their favorite records of the year! Bravely and hotly we waited until the year was done before deciding our favorites, which happened to turn out to mostly be the ones from the publications you already read, but said with our voices!Also up for discussion: Movies are the new talkies and there were many this year per Lucas' ranking, Chris razzles and or dazzles with 10 different album of the year categories, and Charlie just does a top 5 albums because no one discussed what the rules of this thing would be beforehand.
