A podcast centered on going beyond the music to dissect song lyrics and how they relate to philosophy, data, anecdotes, current events, and more. What do these songs have to say about the world and what does that mean for our lives? It's a music podcast for academics. It's a TEDx series for punk rockers. We focus primarily on lyric-driven artists of all genres.

On our first conceptual album breakdown, we tackle this challenging and emotional classic released in 2016. It's an album about grief, but it's not merely one of playing the victim. Frontman Jeremy Bolm writes from an honest perspective of his own failures and misplaced priorities. It's an album of earnest wrestling that might not give us clear answers on how to overcome our own grief, but it definitely gives us a candid look at one account of grief that might at least help us frame our our thoughts.
