065: Top 6 Slayer Songs

So, we apologize in advance for lying. We were “planning” to pick our respective Top 6 Favorite Fucking Slayer Tracks. One problem: it’s REALLY hard for us to nail down our personal “Final Six” Favorite Fucking Slayer tracks, because quite frankly, it’s Fucking Slayer. Which means that we could do this episode in a million different ways in a million different multiverses across a million different dimensions and they would ALL be unique. And they would ALL be awesome. Because they would ALL have one thing in common: (you already know…) FUCKING SLAYER!!

Having said that, we DID try to nail down what we’ll call the “rough draft” of our respective Top “Final Six” favorite FUCKING SLAYER tracks. As usual, anytime we’re talking about FUCKING SLAYER, you KNOW it’s gonna be a good time. We did actually get into the logic that would ultimately drive our Top Favorite Final Six, but if we’re being honest, it kinda turned into an orgy of Fucking Slayer. (I know, right? Guess what? There’s absolutely NOTHING wrong with that. Ever! In ANY dimension or multiverse!! Especially THIS one!).

So turn on your “out of office” notification (technically, that’s NOT lying), roll another bowl of your favorite relaxer (“work/life balance requires more life and less work”), maybe throw in a few shots of fun (just for fun, and just because) and JOIN US as we try our gosh darndest to construct our list of our Top “Final Six” Favorite Fucking Slayer tracks.

PLUS, enjoy the complete left turn we took later in the show that still managed to tie everything together and stay 100% within the acceptable realm of relative tangentionalalityismness as it relates to bolth this particular episode ass swell as The Mighty and Powerful Fucking Slayer.
