              Side note from Jesse: I’m intentionally not putting links to these. Look, I don’t know where you listen to music. Spotify? Apple Music? Tidal? Are you like Nat and only do vinyl? I don’t know. But if you’re listening to this podcast I trust your ability to plop this into Google or DuckDuckGo or whatever and find the album. I believe in you.
