Ladies and Gentlemen, The Rolling Stones!! For our 200th episode we're hunting for treasure with their 1971 record Sticky Fingers! From rock classics like Brown Sugar to ballads like Sway to improvised jams like Can't You Hear Me Knocking, this album has a little bit of everything. We'll talk about Mick Jagger & Keith Richards' childhood friendship, the band's rise to international superstardom with the (literal) sleeper hit Satisfaction, and their weird record-setting performance at Altamont. Meanwhile the Mixtaper is talking football, driving test cheats, and a sharp-dressed slugger before a massive surprise round of Fast Fired Facts! Wild Horses couldn't drag us away from this episode, and it'd be pretty couth if you sent us Dead Flowers every mornin'.

New Person, Same Old Podcast! James & Connor are talking about Tame Impala (just one guy!) and their 2015 record Currents! Kevin Parker's self-created album is the result of hundreds of hours of work, thousands of vocal takes, and a lifetime of passion for music. With themes of change and personal growth, this album sets Reality In Motion with electronic hooks and ambient, saturated vibes. We'll talk about the abandoned power plant that inspired the record, impala enrichment activities, and more! The Mixtaper gets wiggly with facts about aural entanglement and a pet-napping bandit. Embrace The Moment and Let It Happen... but if you don't, well, The Less I Know The Better.

It's Connor's birthday! We finally remembered, but that doesn't mean things go any better... His latest pick is Flying by Cody Fry, an orchestral pop record featuring the viral TikTok hit I Hear A Symphony! In a shocking turn of events, it's an album James has known for 7 years. How will sweeping scores and saturated modern pop Hold On in the rankings? The Mixtaper has done his research into illegal trees, wooden rings, and inconsistent haircuts. Will Connor perform Better than he did last time? It's a one-of-a-kind record with a unique blend of influences from classical to dubstep. Don't miss it! (And stay tuned for a melty birthday curse at the end of the episode...)

Her unique, emotionally ambiguous polysemous lyrics paired with complex-but-intuitive instrumental arrangements bring this very gray self-made album to life in vibrant colors. We'll talk about her early life and the Sufjan Stevens connection that landed her a record deal! Then The Mixtaper will teach us about her vibe-matching voicemail butler, a few controversial outfits, a giant toilet, and "The Neon Pink Interview Cube."
