Hosts Erin and Jacob stuck to the theme this week and made a short episode all about short songs! As you may know, Jacob has been detesting the trend of songs getting shorter and shorter over the years. Erin thought the only medicine for this would be to spend 30 minutes celebrating short songs, intros, and interludes. Did it work? Only time will tell!
