It's pretty simple: Justin Zeppa is trying to convince his old bandmate, Aaron Bales, that Edward Van Halen is the greatest rock and roll guitar player of all time. Why? Shhh, it doesn't matter. They start by laying some groundwork of the hows and whys, discuss their takes on what makes certain music "good," establish the idea of a revised narrative, then briefly swing by Canada to get a glimpse of the King himself. Featuring Aaron Bales and Justin Zeppa.
