The podcast currently has 30 episodes available.
The one where Jean and Urkel Moe Dee take turns asking each other random rap-related questions.
The one where Jean and Marcus take turns trying to stump each other with obscure rap records released between 1990 and 1999. You know, for fun.
Editor’s Note: The audio gets screwy and scratchy about halfway through the episode. Due to the quiz-game nature, we couldn’t re-record it. All apologies.
The one where Jean and Marcus pay tribute to the 15th anniversary of Little Brother’s landmark 2003 underground rap album, ‘The Listening.’ We discuss when we first heard it, our favorite tracks, and its lasting impact on hip hop. Word to Roy Lee and Percy Miracles.
The one where Jean and Marcus review two very different rap albums released on January 26, 2018: Evidence’s (of Dilated Peoples and Step Brothers fame) Weather or Not, and Migos’ Culture II. Both LPs are (technically) each artist’s third effort, have guest appearances on six tracks, and feature songs titled “Moving Too Fast.” That’s where the similarities end, and people start getting real. Wait, that’s “The Real World.” Never mind. Just listen to the episode. Please? We love you.
The one where special guest Jesse Ducker of Albumism joins Jean and Marcus to recall their favorite rap songs and albums of 2017. Like we (and everyone else) always do about this time.
You can also watch this episode on YouTube.
The one where Jean and Marcus talk about the upcoming (January 28!) 2018 Grammy Awards rap nominees. We predict who will win, and discuss who we want to win, and why.

The one where Jean and Marcus discuss rappers in the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, the competing Hip Hop Hall of Fame Museum (and hotel, gift shop, sports bar, restaurant, concert lounge, arcade, and television studios) and Universal Hip Hop Museum projects, VH1’s once-famed Hip Hop Honors, and our own personal hall of fame picks.
The one where Jean and Marcus reach back and evaluate six of rap’s most recognized double discs. Did these albums truly need twice the space to contain their greatness, or are they merely products of pride and excess?
The one where Jean and Marcus discuss the recent, overwhelming Billboard chart success of young upstarts Lil’ Uzi Vert and XXXTENTACION, and their new albums Luv Is Rage 2 and 17, both of which were released August 25.
The one where Jean and Marcus get vulnerable by admitting that there are a few so-called classic rap albums they’ve never heard, and share their thoughts on their first listens.
