It's an amazing thing to be able to "re-introduce" our friends to music again.  Think about this: In a sea of Spotify, mp3's, and bluetooth, Some people under the age of 35 LITERALLY may have NEVER heard their music the way it was recorded.  You have the chance to see their face light up when they feel the energy and passion the artist intended when they recorded it.  That's what this episode is about.

I also discuss the Jabra Elite 75t and determine whether it's the best true wireless earbud on the market today. 

Keep listening to good music!
