The Super Bowl itself wasn’t much, but there was plenty to talk about on the music side. This episode runs through the halftime performances, some ongoing band drama, and a few stories that stood out this week.

I get into Bad Bunny’s halftime show, Green Day’s performance, a new rock-meets-hip-hop book that sent me back to the Judgment Night soundtrack, and Shinedown stepping away from a tour they shouldn’t have been on. There’s also the passing of Brad Arnold of Three Doors Down, plus thoughts on West Borland, a Norah Jones and Joshua Homme collaboration, and a few recent records I’ve been spending time with — including Jay Buchanan.

New episodes every Tuesday and Friday.
