Jane's Addiction. Troubled. Strange. Challenging. Possibly one of the greatest and most influential bands of all time, seemingly all by accident, or at least Jason seems to think so. Jane's seems to just make Jeremy mad, which is arguably a big part of the point. Listen in as we discuss the origin of Jane's Addiction, their troubled history, and their legacy.

Is it fair to compare Pearl Jam to Bon Jovi? Probably not. Dive into PJ with us as Jeremy recounts the mind numbing experience hearing his brother attempt to learn Alive on the guitar, and Jason commits the ultimate sin, calling his most favorite Pearl Jam song, Black, a throwaway Bon Jovi b-side. We discuss history, tons of trivia, our personal experiences, and what makes Pearl Jam one of the biggest and most respected rock bands of our generation.

In this episode, we somehow find an hour and a half of things that have not been said about Styx as Jeremy tells Jason about how a poorly attended Styx concert completely changed his opinion of the band, for the better. Styx. The band. The phenomenon. Fan-favorite for Dungeons and Dragons nerds everywhere, and robots. What more could you ask for?
