Perhaps to the chagrin of some, today's chapter celebrates the birthday of our cipher, so he invited returning guests August West and Vater Boris on to talk about some of their favorite records of the year so far. They also diss on man buns, see Jason Voorhee's band, smoke out the cops, figure out Trump's inner body defense, do Celebrity Jeopardy impressions for the millionth time, toke up with cool uncles, dine pretentiously with T-Rex's, reveal Frank Reynold's theory of how Trump got COVID, go to the Primitive Man pool party, find some crack pipe life hacks, dismiss Portnoy's (camera) complaint, and get quietly excited for the new Macabre album.
