HAPPY VALENTINE'S! We're not doing anything romance-themed, sorry. 

This week, Dave and Adam are joined by freelance journalist Tessa Ndjonkou to celebrate 20 years of YouTube, and to ask - has it been a blessing or a curse for society at large? 

Throw in a lovingly composed news section and there's a LOT to discuss.

As for this week's episode... 

ACT ONE (5:45): Kendrick Lamar's Super Bowl Half-Time show reviewed and debated, Rolling Stone's questionable Liam Payne cover story analysed, and Samantha Mumba versus the Eurosong panel - it's the week in music news. 

ACT TWO (1:01:54): Top 5 YouTube Videos.
