The last 15 songs have entered the comeback fray, along with Nickelodeon dominance, stinky vocals in classic songs, what Clive Davis is drinking while he waits for artists at a crossroads, perfect blends of horniness and intelligence, and what happens when you drop John Belushi's Joe Cocker imitation in a vat of AI. Should Bob Dylan live in a saguaro in Joshua Tree and other questions for the ages, as we wrap up the first round of our definitive-comeback season!

Our intro is an LL Byrne J mash-up, and our outro is Sarah Vaughan. For more information/to become a patron of the show, visit patreon.com/mastas.
