Summary

The boys are back! Steven and Ian catch up after the holiday break with a quick Sportscast about college football and the NFL [2:58]. Then they do their Fantasy Albums Draft for Q1 of 2025 and discussing upcoming records from FKA Twigs, The Weather Station, Ethel Cain, and more [18:45]. (Also, is it possible that Steven didn't win the Q4 2024 draft after all [15:18]?)

From there, they review their predictions for musical happenings in 2024 — how accurate were they at anticipating the most hashable trends of last year [39:39]? Then they set about making predictions for the new year. Will this be the year that Sky Ferreira's album finally drops? Let's guess [46:17]!
