It's time to play Pearl Jam Deprogrammed: Championship Edition! In this two part episode, we take six incredibly passionate fans of the band and see how they agree and disagree on their favorite songs. The way we do that is by playing a game called Deprogrammed, a podcast that collaboratively comes up with a starter kit for an artist. In this instance, we will be deciding on the Top 10 songs in Pearl Jam's catalog until we get down to selecting the song chosen as number one with a bullet. Since this is an expanded version of the podcast, we've taken songs from each of Pearl Jam's albums and grouped them together. There are 4 groups, each group contains 42-44 songs. From that selection, every member of the panel will pick their 15 favorites with the ultimate goal of creating a Top 10 in each group. If all 6 agree unanimously on a song, it automatically reaches the top 10 of its group. Anywhere from 5-3 votes will put a song in the conversation to advance to the top 10 and 2 or less votes will prevent a song from entering that conversation. Here are the album groups that we will be debating on: Group 1: Ten, Riot Act, Gigaton, Merkin Ball, 4 Lost Dog disc 1 tracks Group 2: Vs., Binaural, Avocado, Singles Soundtrack, 4 Lost Dogs disc 1 tracks Group 3: Vitalogy, Lost Dogs disc 2, Backspacer, 4 Lost Dogs disc 1 tracks Group 4: No Code, Yield, Lightning Bolt, 4 Lost Dogs disc 1 tracks Stay tuned for the next episode where we'll take the 40 selected in this show and whittle it down to the final ten!
