BONUS CONTENT! Happy Grammy Week! We're stoked for this year's ceremony, and in anticipation of our annual Album Of The Year Grammy Special we decided to make our own predictions about winners in each of the 94 categories this year. The Mixtaper will teach us a little about how voting works and what's new at the 66th Grammy Awards, and then James and Connor will dive into their predictions one field at a time, and we wrap up by calling our shot for Episode 135! Timestamps for each segment are below, so you can easily find the awards you care about. Catch the Grammys on Sunday, Feb. 4, and then enjoy our special episode on Friday, Feb. 9! Recorded live at Twitch.tv/SpinItPod!
