14th-century English philosopher and theologian William of Ockham’s famous philosophical razor advocates that when presented with competing hypotheses about the same prediction and both theories have equal explanatory power one should prefer the hypothesis that requires the fewest assumptions. But what hypothesis would Big Bad Bill have about why Kevin is so crap at our Ultimate Catalogue Clash side games? Hypotheses a) Kev’s throwing the game because he likes being the underdog, unlikely, he’s a competitive little toad and we’d have to assume he actually knows the answers, b) Corey is cheating, also unlikely as Corey is far too principled and decent a man to do that, and Kev can see him on the other side of the screen…  c) Corey just has a better mind for working these things out. As we can see from these three scenarios, Occam’s razor definitely guides us to the logical conclusion that Corey is cheating.
Will Corey find more variety and something to love on the second acoustic side and will Kevin close the gap in The Best Of You after trouncing Corey last week?
The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and high dive into your brain.
Songs covered in this episode: "Over and Out", "On the Mend", "Virginia Moon", "Cold Day in the Sun", "Razor"

The late, great Audrey Hepburn once said “I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles. Especially when they’re included on rock n roll albums from the mid 2000s” Well Audrey, that’s an interesting perspective and we hope that we agree when we get to The Miracle on this side of In Your Honor. Will Corey be smitten with the first song that Dave ever wrote on acoustic guitar and will Kevin dig a complete change of pace from the raucus tracklist we've listened to so far?
The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, pin me down, and go another round.
Songs covered in this episode: "Still", "What If I Do?", "Miracle", "Another Round", "Friend of a Friend"

Corey and Kevin are back to talk about Side B of In Your Honor. We're including the UK/Japan/Vinyl/iTunes bonus track for this episode, so we're not ending with End Over End. So, despite all our complaining about natural end points, we're blowing right on by this one, but hey, we saw the sign! It opened up .... Corey's already told me off for using that lyric so I won't repeat it. Will Kevin be a fan of blues and blacks? Will Corey extend his already almost unassailable lead in The Best Of You?
The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, pin me down, and show me how.
Songs covered in this episode: "Free Me", "Resolve", "The Deepest Blues Are Black", "End Over End", "The Sign"

Corey and Kevin are back to talk about Side A of In Your Honor. A double album? Two sides of charged up heavy rock and two sides of acoustic numbers? What the hell is this? A reverse Bob Dylan? Joking aside, this monumentally ambitious project could have been a disaster of epic proportions, but In Your Honor comes blistering out of the blocks with six songs that tear along at a breakneck pace. Will the frenetic energy of the title track cut the mustard for our heroes without capes? What will they think of a song simply titled "Hell"? And, most importantly, will Kev's fiendish picks for this week's Best of You segment finally bamboozle Corey and close the gap in the race to be come out on top in Season Three?
The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and get out of here alive.
Songs covered in this episode: "In Your Honor", "No Way Back", "Best of You", "DOA", "Hell", "The Last Song".

Corey and Kevin are back to talk about Side B of One By One. The writing and recording of this album was a train wreck and it's been largely disavowed by everyone involved in the years since, but then again, Dave Grohl once said that Learn to Fly was his least favourite song on an album that also contains Live-In Skin, so what the hell does that guy know? Will Brian May's presence on the opening track sway Kev over to a positive assessment? Will Overdrive be the fuel, be the fire, be that which Corey desires?
The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and keep from growing old.
Songs covered in this episode: "Tired of You", "Halo", "Lonely as You", "Overdrive", "Burn Away", "Come Back"

Corey and Kevin are back to talk about Side A of One By One. "Hey Dave, the opening track from the last album was a bit of a banger, I bet you can't write anything as strong to open this record..." "Hold my beer and bring me a FRESH POTTTTTTTTT!!!!!!" This week's album side explodes out of the gate and contains two of the biggest live tracks in the Foos catalogue. Could this one be Kev's highest-rated side in the Foos canon, and will Corey be on board with a song called "Disenchanted Lullaby"?
The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and learn to live again! 
Songs covered in this episode:
"All My Life", "Low", "Have It All", "Times Like These", "Disenchanted Lullaby"
