Forget where you are and remember where you were—we are stepping into the Retro Wave Zone with the Back in Time Brothers! This week, DJ Paulie and Lou are dialing the time machine back 15 years to 2011, an absolute turning point for music where indie angst was traded for massive synths, floor-filling beats, and iconic vocals.

From the rise of legendary British vocal powerhouses to the viral shuffling craze that took over every single dance floor, this episode is packed with bigger-than-life personalities and hooks that will be stuck in your head all week. Plus, DJ Britt joins the crew to count down the definitive top 10 pop bangers of the year!

What’s Packaged in the Trunk This Week:

• The Top 10 Pop Bangers Countdown: DJ Britt takes the wheel to break down 2011's heavy-hitting anthems! We blast through everything from Foster the People’s deceptively dark breakout hit "Pumped Up Kicks" and Jennifer Lopez & Pitbull's club shaker "On the Floor" to Nicki Minaj's game-changing "Super Bass," Bruno Mars' ultimate dramatic track "Grenade," and Adele's historic, Grammy-sweeping masterpiece "Rolling in the Deep".
• 2011 Silver Screen Smash Hits: Lou and DJ Paulie count down the top 10 movies that dominated the box office. We’re talking The Hangover Part II (and the Mel Gibson casting drama) , the high-octane Fast Five bloopers , Team Edward vs. Team Jacob in Twilight: Breaking Dawn Part One , and Disney’s brilliant 3D box office heist with The Lion King.
• TV Time: A look back at a shifting era of network television. The guys discuss Charlie Sheen’s infamous "Tiger Blood" meltdown and his replacement by Ashton Kutcher on Two and a Half Men , Hines Ward dominating Dancing with the Stars , and the unforgettable era of JLo and Steven Tyler judging American Idol.
• Rock Talk (The Dark Side): Todd Snyder hops into the rock-and-roll time machine to cover the absolute chaos of 2011. From the Kings of Leon walking off a blistering Texas stage to the hilarious 55,000-signature petition to ban Nickelback from the Detroit Lions Thanksgiving halftime show. We also pause for a somber reflection on the tragic final performance and passing of the unforgettable Amy Winehouse.
• Random Facts: The final curtain call for our favorite segment! Learn about Katy Perry tying Michael Jackson's Billboard record , the mind-blowing cost of minting a 2011 penny , the introduction of zombie ants , and Kim Kardashian's infamous 72-day marriage.
• The Rips of 2011: A special tribute to the icons we lost, including tech visionary Steve Jobs , heavy-weight legend Smokin' Joe Frazier , the legendary Clarence Clemens , and Hollywood royalty Elizabeth Taylor.
