For fans of: disco deconstruction night, close reading, taxonomy as meditation rather than organization.

Garth Brooks is a mask Chris Gaines wears. Hide behind your bangs (in the rafters, on WCW Monday Nitro) while we ask: Was Tony the talent?

For fans of: b-sides with backstories, Billy Joel's comments, Babyface without Babyface.

Santana, both band and not. Face your colleagues and ask difficult questions like: How good can you really be at conga drum in relative terms?

This is the one where we start to get our feelings hurt about certain hosts’ rankings of certain songs. But it all works out in the end. In this episode, we ask many questions, like children often do: Tell me all your thoughts on god (oops, not a question). Where the hell is Superdrag? (fantastic question). When are you two starting a family? (Never an appropriate question, please leave).

For fans of: really knowing what it’s like to have the blues, maybe; protecting the pretty babies; being glad because one kid had it worse than that (ie, Charismatic Pentacostalism).
