Today we're joined by innovative worship collective Elevation Rhythm! Plus, while Derek is in LA pitching some new music projects, Marty for some reason lets it leak that he thinks everyone over 40 only listens to the Gaithers (which doesn't go over well), and then Jesse starts advocating for some major changes to the concert-going experience (which does go over well). Plus, Emily brings the week's RELEVANT Buzz, covering the new Mike Todd movie, the Nickelodeon scandal, and some crazy niche Bibles that, yes, are very, very real.
