To kick-off our 2021 series, Justin begins this new chapter by looking back on his Favorite Albums (& things) from the dumpster fire that was 2020! Explaining his broken thoughts, feelings, & process on why these 20 albums (and 11 Honorable Mentions) meant something to him during that crazy time period.

In this week's episode, Justin chats with two thirds of UK indie band in earnest... Sarah Holburn & Thomas Eatherton... about their newly released - deeply personal - buzzworthy debut self-titled EP, some behind the scenes info about its construction, insights on the second half's tracks ("fables", "in between", & "the house"), being ambassadors for Mental Health alongside My Black Dog, and so much more!
