Entertain Us (90's music)
In this episode, the boys gather in Matt's basement to talk about 90's music! We discuss grunge, nu metal and other trends in rock and metal music, hip-hop and rap, boy bands, video game music, R&B, and some other sound bits that came from the decade of Bill Clinton and Dixie cups with that blue design thing. You know what I'm talking about. We hope you're as entertained by this episode as Kurt Cobain was in Smells Like Teen Spirit!

In this episode, the boys bring on Stanley to talk about Demon Slayer! We've talked about manga and anime before, but this one is on a level of popularity not often experienced in Japan, America, and the rest of the world. And that's saying something! It's got demons, breathing, forms, a demon slaying core, and so much more - but you know what it doesn't have? Calvin. Rip.
