WHEW - are we already on month 6 of the year? With the amount of new music releases being packed into 2024, every week feels like a lifetime. Alec's back to jointly metabolize some of the new material by Dua, Becky Hill, and the recorded Chromatica Tour. And, because we haven't caught up in a while (and it's June!) we take a mid-month breather to recount pride festivities from Albuquerque to Los Angeles. This is a 2-parter, so get warmed up here for our next episode that's dedicated to the current critical darling of 2024, the brat herself, Charli XCX.
