This week, James, Jeremy, Kyle, and Larry, the Grateful Dentist return to compete in the Tournament of Champions: Heat #1. The winner will continue on to the semifinals. Thank you to Phish and Grateful Dead outfitter Section 119 for providing the prize pack. And, as always, thanks to 30k ft for drawing the poster.

In addition to the competition, we discuss Frank Zappa, Trey vs Jerry’s guitar playing, why ’83 is an underrated year for the Dead, and much more.

For those interested in jumping into Frank Zappa, Kyle made this Spotify playlist. And here's the mentioned Charlie Rose/Trey Anastasio interview.
