  • 38: Modest Mouse | Lucy Dacus | Tyler, the Creator

    Three artists that we feel The Website is a little scared to admit they don't quite know what to do with.

    Note: At one point in the show we inaccurately claim that Tyler, the Creator's 2019 album IGOR won a Grammy in the "Urban" category. It in fact won the Best Rap Album Grammy and, for the record, we did know that. We simply forgot it for about 30 minutes. Best New Podcast regrets the error.

  • 37: black midi | St. Vincent

    In this episode we discuss two artists with origins in very prestigious music schools, where they presumably do very prestigious music things. Does all this prestige guarantee a BNM? Absolutely not. That's ridiculous and, frankly, I'm embarrassed for having suggested it.

  • 34: Live Reading - The 50 Best Albums of 2020

    The time has finally come. Listen along as we read through The Website's year-end top albums list and determine the winners of this year's draft. That's about 10% of it. The rest, as usual, is mainly us mispronouncing things.

  • 33: Draft - Best Albums of 2020

    With the year slowly starting to fade and with the release of The Website's year-end lists imminent, your Best New Hosts gather to do what they do just fine: draft. This episode we pick the albums we think will top the 50 Best Albums of 2020.

    First, however, with judgement in our hearts we take a look back in a year-end installment of "Stuck It or Suck It."

    And, yes, you saw that runtime right, Listener. This is an obscenely long one. Pour a drink, get to work.
