We've made it to the end of 2022, which means it's time to talk music. In this 4+ hour podcast, we dive into the games that moved us aurally in 2022, taking moments to remember some less discussed gems and complicated emotions. And, you know. There are some decent tunes in there too. We'd like to thank you all for joining us this year, and wish you all happy holidays, and a fantastic 2023.
