Long episode, but we had a lot of music to talk about including Tyler, The Creator's new album (5:38), artists that we are STILL waiting on (10:32), some interesting singles from Post Malone and Nicki Minaj (17:10) and a very brief examination of Olivia Rodrigo's massive success (26:27). We also spend a large amount of time discussing the state of the MCU after the release of WandaVision (32:02), Falcon and The Winter Soldier (34:10) Loki (44:20), and Black Widow (55:18). **Massive spoiler warning for anyone who hasn't seen any of these yet**. Brad and I will be back every Thursday so be sure to look out for new episodes!
