Welcome in flats and sharps! We’ve got quite an episode in store for you all! Get ready for some truly engaging topics, like “Bucket Hat Hardcore”, Egg Punk (NOT Chain Punk), oddly large stuff as tourist traps, universally nostalgic 80s synths, why you shouldn’t shop at the strip mall at Clark & Wellington, listening to an album again even if you didn’t like it the first time, “White Suburban Boomers”, and the most-definitely-haunted Burr Oak Cemetery! Oh, and go show Dan Stewart some love! He’s the brand new editor of this fine podcast here!

Welcome in flats and sharps! It’s the second time I’ve gotten to say that! This episode features someone who’s really neat: please welcome Tracy Conoby! Sit your ears down for a moment and enjoy as we discuss Tegan and Sara (and catfishing), Paramore and their wondrous frontwoman, MUNA’s infectious gay pop, and “crying to Julien Baker songs in my car”! Plus, a fun round of Hard Times or Real Times, the new quiz game sweeping the nation (as in the nation of In the Key of Brie; it’s in half of their episodes!) If you think you’re ready for this episode, you probably are! I won’t judge your ability to know yourself! But I will judge you if you don’t listen!
WARNING: A small discussion of addiction starts at 52 minutes and ends at 54 minutes.
