In this episode, Ted and Andy are once again recording remotely, although this time it's logistics and not pandemic related.  Most of the episode consists of Andy trying to explain the theme of the week which is simply this: A popular song from one of your favorite bands, but you think that particular song is garbage (See how easy that was, Andy?).  They do cleanse the palate with a suggestion of an excellent, "lesser-known" song by those same bands.  Along the way, Ted starts a new job, they introduce the "knee-cam" to the Patreon, and they invite everyone to play fantasy football with them.

In this episode, Ted and Andy are finally back together again! Not only that, they're joined by "The Podfather" himself, Travis Tubesing!  The energy is through the roof as the guys look back on the strange time warp that has been the last five and a half months, and then jump off from there to talk about three events they'd like to go back in time to experience.  Insanity ensues!
