This is the second episode of In Between Spins - the monthly new music portion of the eduPUNX Podcast! If you remember from January, it's a collaboration with my friend Jaclyn O'Connell - who is launching her project, In Between Spins VERY SOON! Read below for more information!

This week, we welcomed our friend, Christine Varialle, the editor-in-chief of Allston Pudding, to the podcast to discuss our current favorite albums of 2018 - we know, we know, the year is still very fresh, but there have been plenty of great releases so far! AND we discuss some of the albums that are yet to be released this year and speculate on some that may or may not come our way this year.

You get to learn A LOT about us and our interests on this episode, and there is no shortage of exciting new music that some of us weren't even aware of before recording this episode. But some are now in constant rotation for us - and we hope they will be for you!
