What Wild Nothing said · 6 records

Every quote links to the moment in the episode.
Dog Eat Dog
Joni Mitchell ·1985
"I'm a big Joni Mitchell fan. This is kind of like one of the Joni Mitchell records that has a really bad reputation, but I absolutely love it. The songwriting is still there, the lyrical content is still there; there's so many good tracks on this record."

Whammy!
The B-52's ·1983
"I love The B-52s. I think like somehow even though they're clearly a very big and well-respected band, they're still kind of underrated in my opinion just for like what they did culturally. This particular record, Whammy!, not like one of their more well-known ones, but I love this record."

Love Oh Love
Leroy Hutson ·1973
"I'm so in love with you baby, I can't even remember honestly how I got turned on to this record. This record is like it's just so good and I feel like when I'm talking about this kind of music with people, this seems to be a record that not a lot of people know about."

Surrender
The Chemical Brothers ·1999
"Chemical Brothers record Surrender, this was probably one of the first CDs that I ever bought when I was in elementary school... I've been revisiting it lately and it holds up extremely well to me."
