Shownotes

How does everyone feel about Thom's unique dance moves in the "Lotus Flower" music video? Nick and Austin discuss that important topic while briefly touching on 90s-era Christian rock music and Homer's "Odyssey." Will they agree with the consensus that the album's second, slower second half is better than the more rhythmic first half? Or will they find a way to disagree with that narrative?
