Peter, I'm so excited about today's episode. You know, it's called Unicorn

Pockets. Do you have any idea about what I'm about to hit you with? I have absolutely no idea.

But did you catch my office reference in the intro? I did, but it took some explaining, actually.

Some spaining. Some spaining. Some dad spaining. As the music was playing of what the hell you were talking about. But I fully admit that the title I gave this, Unicorn Pockets, needs some explaining. So here's the deal with today's episode, folks. I was listening, well, we've been listening to a bunch of different players on our Tuesday night sessions live on YouTube. By the way, if you want to check that out, that's 8 p.m. every Tuesday

2010s. Okay. Nobody from the 20s. Not this 20s. We just started that. We're still in. We're still in the middle of it. But we could put some nominations in at the end if we wanted to. But so the idea with this is that each one of these players totally changed the game with their pocket. They're unicorns with their pockets.

They're so special. They're so rare. They changed how the music feels. Here's the cool thing about as I was putting this playlist together on Spotify, which, by the way, we'll put a link here to the Spotify playlist. If you want to listen to all of these tracks more and listen to them in full, go to that Spotify playlist. but as I was putting together,
