Welp, we survived the election, and it didn’t go the way we’d hoped! Rub some dirt on it, listeners dear, and tune in to hear the BANTS bois discuss the new hotness in pop culture to distract from the gnawing void! This week, G+J discuss the *questionable* casting of Jeremy Allen White (JAW) as the Boss himself, Bruce Springsteen, and the already iconic NYC Timothée Chalamet lookalike contest. Most importantly, Grammy nominations have dropped, and Geoff is itching to get ahead after his loss to Justin in their Emmys competition! Our hosts discuss the snubs of Dua Lipa, Jack Antonoff, and Megan thee Stallion, and noms for Taylor Swift, Billie Eilish, Beyoncé, Sabrina Carpenter, and perennial pod favorite Charli xcx. Who will come out on top??
