The Hersey boys talk about one of the first rock and roll supergroups (as far as they know, anyway): Crosby, Stills, and Nash.  They also discuss CSNY and how these four artist mix-n-matched their way to musical glory.  As always, Eric brings the research, Todd brings the snide remarks.

As many denizens of the United States of America celebrate the nation's Independence Day, some are bound to enjoy a parade.  Todd and Eric spontaneously design the parade of their dreams and ask you to come along for the (fairly ridiculous) ride.

There is NO bonus content after the usual outro.  You should definitely not stick around to hear them continue the conversation, or you'll be late to the cook out.

Pulling another debate topic from the envelopes of doom, the Hersey brothers delve into the realm of personal grooming.

The Hersey brothers dive deep into Episode V.  Tiny green wizards, bounty hunters, and the pros and cons of the special editions are discussed at length.

We are of the opinion that Pink Floyd, while awesome overall, are really more or less three different bands:  the early years (with Syd Barrett), the “middle” years (with Roger Waters), and the later years (with David Gilmour at the helm).  We like all three and talk about the band, their albums and songs, and their legacy.

It's Father's Day.  Todd is a father, Eric is a father...but in this episode they mostly talk about their dad.  Bill Hersey passed on far too soon;  his boys share stories from their youth about the gentle giant that helped shape them into the men that they've become.

Todd is once again inspired by a random prompt on Twitter, this time drawing Eric into the madness.  The concept?  A discussion of dangerous things that we did as children that we would not let our young people do these days.

Todd steps away from his usual shenanigans to address some very real problems that need to be addressed, primarily that racism and police brutality are destroying our fellow humans, particularly Black ones. Each of us needs to do our part to stop it.  Everyone is welcome to listen and share, but this is mostly directed to other white folks.  Silence equals consent and we can not continue to be silent.

Todd and Eric go back to the original and dive deep into their memories to cover the classic.  Let's face it though, none of this should really be a spoiler to anyone.  Todd proves his dork level by recalling the names and backstories for cantina denizens and young Miles makes his presence known as only a three year old can.
