It’s launch week, and in the first of three episodes, Dave and Caleb present their picks for the Best Album For Starting a Podcast. They find a not-so-deep cut from 1995 that captures all of their hopes and dreams for this new venture, and then discuss what to do with albums that once fit the topic perfectly but now are shrouded in controversy and scandal, and try not to touch the third rail as they parse out if anything should be off limits for two white guys hosting a podcast in 2023. Also, what are they listening to this week?

Hosts: Dave Sandell & Caleb Gardner
