We get a call from Matt's mom, we talk about the path the Rolling Stones took to get to this point and whether or not this album has the greatest bookend songs of ALL TIME?  Aaron talks about how he is addicted to shoplifting squarts (sp?) and how he loves watching live sports from about 20 years ago. We play another round of Aarin or Aarout. We give out some dating advice and then Matt schools us on Mick, Keith, Brian, Charlie, and the gang.   Russell gives us the best fiddle songs of all time and we discuss "Waiting on a friend", one of the worst videos of all time.  Email us at beckdiditbetter@gmail.com and follow us on Insta and Twitter.   call or text at 802-277-BECK

(bubble noises)  We are talking G-Funk, Nate Dogg, Warren G, and that west coast gangsta rap with Snoop and Dr. Dre. We play the hit new game Aar-in or Air-Out and then talk about our favorite weed songs and where Afroman stands on Mt. Marijuanamore. The only problem is that this episode is a bit of a ligma.  We discuss going a retreat to India like the Beatles, more Billie Eilish, Peloton streaks, and Russell's newfound love for Beats by Dre.  We talk about the influences of Parliment on Dre, how much this album shaped our youths and how this probably could not get made today.    Email us at beckdiditbetter@gmail.com and follow us @beckdiditbetter on Instagram and Twitter.  Call or text the bext line at 802-277-BECK   NEXT UP is OFF THE WALL!
