Finally....FINALLY we wrap up our 2018 episodes.  Kris and Alex decided to get a little jazzy, a little jammy, and just a tad weird in this episode with three 2018 releases that are easy on the vocals and heavy on the not-radio-friendly.

Alex is here with the first Round-up of the year and he has a lot to cover.

Alex and Kris do something they almost never do...discuss modern albums! For reasons beyond explanation they decide to get contemporary, which also leads them to going postal on a few kids from Michigan, discuss their complete lack of awareness of the Lil Wayne discography, and the pros and cons of being half-human and half-machine. Find out how these conversations go as they review:Lill Wayne -Tha Carter VGreta Van Fleet - Anthem For The Peaceful ArmyDeantoni Parks - Homo Deus
