Good News: Friend of the podcast Stephanie Gunst joins Caitlin and Tanner to talk the latest tracks from Billie Eilish, Daddy Yankee, Bring Me the Horizon, and The Chainsmokers!

Bad News: The technology gods decided to prevent Stephanie's microphone from recording properly, so all of her audio comes from whatever Tanner's microphone picked up. This means a moderate level of background hiss and a few uncomfortable instances of Tanner breathing, mostly near the start of the episode. Consider it an unintentional layer of irony to the episode title.
