Every quote links to the moment in the episode.
Absolute
Scritti Politti ·2011
"The record that this is off of, which the name escapes me currently, but it's an incredible '80s pop record that I got into. Well, Lucy actually showed me it last year for the first time and it was definitely like one of my musical obsessions."

Priest...Live!
Judas Priest ·1987
"The only thing better than Judas Priest is Judas Priest Live. All the hits, they kick ass live. If you don't like Judas Priest, listen to Judas Priest live and watch that live footage. It's iconic."

Deloused In the Comatorium
The Mars Volta ·2003
"Deloused In the Comatorium came out when I was probably in 8th grade, like 2002 or 2003, and this was kind of the first time I was introduced to any sort of modern psychedelic progressive type music. It's still a great record to go back to; so many layers, very psychedelic, very inspirational for me."

"Death, The Sound of Perseverance, their final studio record, RIP Chuck. This is probably my favorite of theirs. Controversial opinion, but I just love how it sounds. It's more sleek than a lot of the other records and it's unfortunate that, you know, that was kind of it from them after Chuck passed away."
