    We're Grateful For Pearl Jam's Riot Act

    Jason and Paul celebrate Pearl Jam's Riot Act after 23 years with two of their favorite segments: Write Your Own Song and What We're Grateful For. Riot Act divided opinion upon release but it was a difficult time in the United States and an aging fanbase may not have been ready for what the band were ready to put out into the world. But 23 years later the record has aged well.
