A perfect album—one with no fillers, no bad songs, all greatness—can be pretty hard to come by. But, after decades of meticulous searching, Jared has found those happy few. This time, he features the alternative country group, Uncle Tupelo, and their perfect album “Anodyne.”  

Next up, Jared welcomes the esteemed Joe Patrice to discuss legal journalism, law firm horror stories, politics, and whether objective reporting still exists. 

And, this time on the Rump Roast, Joe quizzes and Jared takes the hot seat for a round of obscure Simpsons trivia. 

Joe Patrice is a senior editor at Above the Law.
