Every quote links to the moment in the episode.
"Unwound, mid-90s Pacific Northwest punk rock, but kind of more like a mathy punk rock. Really one of my favorite bands ever, but I've never seen this record. It looks like it's from '97, which means it would be late Unwound, which is when they got kind of moody, a little sleepy in my opinion."
