Stretching the limits of the witty banter, Sam plays only three songs. Izzy Reel (she/her) considers parental involvement, seeing the scale of musical repetition.

YuJing Chen (she/they) falls victim to the first genre/taste clash on the show. A brief interruption throws off Sam's timing.

Songs played:

• Spoon by Cibo Matto
• Live & Learn by Crush 40
• Katchua by Ya Levis
• Water Puzzle by Earsnail

Do we like the music we like for a reason? Sam tries to divine order from chaos. For their part, Ben Rotko (any pronouns) creates chaos.

Songs played:

• Sprinter by Dave & Central Cee
• By Being with You by Cosmo Sheldrake
• At This Point in My Life by Tracey Chapman
• Boho Days by Jonathan Larson
• Ebb Tide by Tim Waurick

The previously-referenced Bijan Taheri (he/him) gets spooked. Silence and Sam build and release tension; Sam goes silent.

Songs played:

• Parandeh by Martik
• The Old Witch Sleep and the Good Man Grace by The Amazing Devil
• Excitable Boy by Warren Zevon
• At the Zoo by Simon and Garfunkel

Songs played:

• Sawed off Shotgun by The Glorious Sons
• Exmilitary by JPEGMAFIA

Carlos Benavides (he/him) definitely describes a meme over the radio. He and Sam explore different kinds of censorship in preparation for an episode without it.

Songs played:

• Common People by Pulp
• Alone As Ever by All under heaven
• Get the Gang Together by Gerard Way
