In Stranger Things, Jonathan Byers posits “You shouldn't like things because people tell you you're supposed to.” Well, I tend to agree, unless it’s your mom telling you you’re really gonna like this new song by the Foo Fighters that she’s been listening to…

This is the album that was Kev's introduction to the Foo Fighters and Corey only knows three songs from it. Is the balance of acoustic and rock going to work for the latter and is nostalgia going to rose-tint Kev's glasses on this one?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and get up to shut it down.

Songs covered in this episode: "The Pretender", "Let It Die", "Erase/Replace", "Long Road to Ruin", "Come Alive", "Stranger Things Have Happened"

14th-century English philosopher and theologian William of Ockham’s famous philosophical razor advocates that when presented with competing hypotheses about the same prediction and both theories have equal explanatory power one should prefer the hypothesis that requires the fewest assumptions. But what hypothesis would Big Bad Bill have about why Kevin is so crap at our Ultimate Catalogue Clash side games? Hypotheses a) Kev’s throwing the game because he likes being the underdog, unlikely, he’s a competitive little toad and we’d have to assume he actually knows the answers, b) Corey is cheating, also unlikely as Corey is far too principled and decent a man to do that, and Kev can see him on the other side of the screen… c) Corey just has a better mind for working these things out. As we can see from these three scenarios, Occam’s razor definitely guides us to the logical conclusion that Corey is cheating.

Will Corey find more variety and something to love on the second acoustic side and will Kevin close the gap in The Best Of You after trouncing Corey last week?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, and high dive into your brain.

Songs covered in this episode: "Over and Out", "On the Mend", "Virginia Moon", "Cold Day in the Sun", "Razor"

The late, great Audrey Hepburn once said “I believe in pink. I believe that laughing is the best calorie burner. I believe in kissing, kissing a lot. I believe in being strong when everything seems to be going wrong. I believe that happy girls are the prettiest girls. I believe that tomorrow is another day and I believe in miracles. Especially when they’re included on rock n roll albums from the mid 2000s” Well Audrey, that’s an interesting perspective and we hope that we agree when we get to The Miracle on this side of In Your Honor. Will Corey be smitten with the first song that Dave ever wrote on acoustic guitar and will Kevin dig a complete change of pace from the raucus tracklist we've listened to so far?

The only way to find out is to turn on, tune in, pin me down, and go another round.

Songs covered in this episode: "Still", "What If I Do?", "Miracle", "Another Round", "Friend of a Friend"
