Kendra and I deep-dive one of the biggest selling albums ever, and an album that made history - Alanis Morissette's "Jagged Little Pill". I share a story about meeting young Alanis, the definition of irony, the Dave Coulier rumour, the song we totally forgot about on the album, a fun announcement, and the cross eyed bear that you gave to me.
