Part 2 is here! (Part 1 aired last week)

Get comfortable, focus on your breath, slowly close your eyes, and imagine you are looking at a Hot Topic wall of band t-shirts circa 2008: My Chemical Romance, Blink-182, Yellowcard, The All-American Rejects, The Used, Dashboard Confessional. It used to just be you and your friends who knew bands like this, but now you hear them every time you turn on the radio in your 1999 Toyota Camry (which doesn't have a working CD player, hence the radio). The Plain White T's own Mike Retondo joins me to pit these bands against each other in a March Madness-style bracket tournament, as well as to share with me what is was like for his own band to enjoy worldwide radio success with "Hey There, Delilah."
