Show Notes

We're outta here! More accurately, our longtime buddy Tony Ross is outta here. Tony's leaving LA after many years and we'll miss having him around. We've always enjoyed having on the pod, going as far back as 2012! Tony's getting out, which inspired us to celebrate the art of getting out with our latest, TOP TEN SONGS ABOUT GETTING OUT. We needed more fun so we recruited Tony's partner in crime, the great Matt Dinan to join us. Things go off the rails quickly, but in a good way, as picks 10-6 in our epic countdown are featured here in Part 1.
