It's Friday...wake Them Bones up.  Dam That alarm clock, and hope it's not Raining.  We know sometimes it feels like you're Down in a Hole in that comfortable bed, but it's not like you're Sick or anything, so get up.  I'm sure your hair looks like a Rooster, but put some product Junk on your Head and style it up.  After you comb out the Dirt of course.  It may feel like God Smacked you in the face, and I know how much you Hate to Feel hungry -- but that's what breakfast is for silly!  So sit in your Chair without being too Angry...pour a piping hot cup of coffee...maybe a few farm fresh eggs, and tune in to hear your favorite bozos talk about this early 90's gem...Would you?

- 2 Twins & An Albums fans...you know it's true.

Be there as Nubs remembers 'Behind The Music'...Toph remembers the roller rink...and the gents discuss this ever-so odd time in music, and this ever-so odd moment in pop culture during the turn of the final pre-millenium decade.  And, drama aside, was it a good album?  Girl you know it's -- Girl you know it's -- Girl you know it's -- (80,000 people) -- Girl you know it's......true.

Sit Down next to us...and join as we dig into this early 90's unheralded treat.  The boys discuss alternate concepts for the show, then realize that one is enough -- so they will stick to albums for now.  Be there as Nubs discusses crushes and concert dates with elder women...Toph provides the extremely brief history of his first junior high-era band Phlox...and the gents, when not talking about how trumpets are cool, also pay a bit of homage to the passing of a comedy genius of our time.  Not six!...seven!...let's do this.

Cc-cc-cc-cc-cc-cc-C'MON..!!  Join the boys as they dive into this late 80's extravaganza...at times graphic, at times randy, at times confusing -- but, unquestionably, an artistic expression that took the commercial music world by storm.  Even though it's unclear what exactly he's doing on the album cover. Be there, as Nubs becomes Columbo and attempts to solve the accused plagiarism of his girlfriend...Toph proves that he sometimes listens to lyrics, but apparently only when they're annoying...and the gents discuss three classic, completely off-topic Chapelle show sketches and where they properly rank.  Set your monkeys free, and join us!!

Hey guyyys -- let's get serious here.  Really, really, really serious.  As we dive into the pain and agony of late 90’s Florida rock ‘n roll.  And, in between making fun of this pain and agony a bit, we strive to answer the following:  Why did the fellas take a week off?  Who does the better Scott Stapp impression?  Is Toph still salty at Nubs about last week’s episode?  What’s hotter, a girl who likes Creed or a girl who likes Rush…even though the latter doesn’t exist?  Did J.J. Fad have any good album cuts?  What is really in Heinz 57 sauce?  And, beyond those questions, we recount the rare moment where Nubs escorted Topper to a concert and all he wanted to do is leave.  Let’s try and take each other Higher.  Join us.
