Am I strange for missing the “what are you listening to” part of the show, or just strange for other reasons?
Would get a kick out of hearing what Jon and his guests are spinning on any given week, be it cool, uncool, old or new.
Great show.
I keep meaning to ask my guests that. One of these weeks, I’ll remember!
This discussion made me think of videogames oddly enough. It’s fascinating that people who intensely love games play on hard mode. The more you love a game or a genre, the more time and energy you invest into mastering the minutia.
