Happy New Year to all of you! We'd thought to try something different to ring out 2022 and ring in 2023 with a free-form talk about all things music currently swirling around our respective noggins. And yes, those delightful curmudgeonly exchanges you've come to love make an appearance or two. It's a show without a playlist or script we hope you enjoy.

And give those necks and fists a workout by listening to our Autoreverse Entombed playlist: https://spoti.fi/3FLeH5f
