Jason and Paul welcome a titan of the Pearl Jam fan community to the show to discuss and celebrate the Voters for Choice concerts in Washington, D.C 30 years later. Kathy Davis started the Footsteps fanzine in 1992 and was co-editor/founder of fan website Two Feet Thick until its shuttering in 2013. She's been to nearly 200 shows and has stories for days. She discusses the significance of these two concerts which began a new chapter for the band amid a new dynamic with Dave Abbruzzesse's exit and Jack Irons entrance, plus Pearl Jam's ongoing fight for fair ticketing with Ticketmaster. The context for the shows is massive as well considering America's current abortion climate.

Jason and Paul are joined by Pearl Jam Radio's Rob Bleetstein and engineer/mixer Brett Eliason to look back Pearl Jam's unique 4+ hour syndicated radio broadcast Self-Pollution Radio.

The show, hosted by Eddie Vedder with Pearl Jam bandmates Jeff Ament and Stone Gossard featured live performances from Pearl Jam, Mudhoney, Soundgarden, Fastbacks, Mad Season and more plus a bespoke playlist of studio cuts of bands rarely seen on radio including early demos from Dave Grohl.

The tone spotlit activism, change, and awareness including, but not limited to, women's rights.

It was a significant moment in Pearl Jam (and radio) history and began a tumultuous yet definitive year for the band.
