Extended Play

The time has come. We’ve been counting down the 100 Best Albums of Our Lifetime for the past few months, and we’ve finally arrived at the Top 10. We started this project with nearly 700 albums to consider, and couldn’t be prouder of where we ended up.

If you haven’t been following along the whole time, catch up on previous episodes in our feed or on YouTube.

We’ve been counting down the 100 Best Albums of Our Lifetime, and before we get to the Top 10, we thought it was time to take a quick detour and talk about some fantastic albums that did NOT make the list. Were our choices arbitrary and capricious? Hell no! We take a deep dive on why these albums are great - just not great enough to make the Top 100.

What do you think of these albums? Any albums we’ve missed so far that you don’t think are in our Top 10? Let us know in the comments!

And just like that, we’re one step away from the Top 10. But before we get to the absolute cream-of-the-crop, we’ve got some killer albums to discuss taking up the 20-11 spots. A bunch of genres and subgenres are represented here, including one album that E thinks is essential listening (though one could argue this entire list is essential, right? 😉).

What do you think of this portion of the list? Any of these make it into your Top 20? Let us know in the comments!

Long time members of The Extended Family™️ may remember last year when hosts E and Tank committed to three music-related New Year’s resolutions. Well, it’s time to check in on their progress. Any guesses on how they did? Plus, they’ll make three more resolutions each for 2025.

Our countdown of the Top 100 Songs of Our Lifetime has reached numbers 30 through 21. So many incredible albums that our hosts are nearly speechless. Just kidding - they go on and on and on; exactly what you’d come to expect from The Extended Play Podcast.

Having recently included “A Rush of Blood to the Head” in our Top 100 Albums of Our Lifetime, we knew we’d have to review Coldplay’s latest. This one really tested us TBH. Come for the album review (we go to 20!), stay for E learning why he can’t say “pegged” anymore. 🤢

Do the words “satin crotch shot” mean anything to you? Well, they didn’t to us until we watched the video for Grandmaster Flash and The Furious Five’s hip-hop classic “The Message.” Somehow, the video is way worse - and better - than you can possibly imagine.

It’s become a show cliche at this point, but true nonetheless; the albums in our list of the Top 100 Albums of Our Lifetime just keep getting better! 😜 This time around, we move past the half-way point to discuss some classic hip-hop albums and some that deserve to be classics. Plus, we give you our un-asked-for take on Canadians.

We're back with an episode just for our non-YouTube folks! It's the return of the Playlist Challenge! Hosts E and Tank each choose five songs that have something to do with comebacks, they each listen to each other's choices, and then rate them from worst to best. It's a blast!

Which songs were your favorites? Least favorites? Let us know in the comments on Spotify.

Listen to a playlist of the songs on Spotify and YouTube.
