All good things must end, but that doesn’t mean it has to be a bummer. In this week’s draft, a part 2 from last week’s summer road trip mixtape draft, the guys pick the 8 songs they want to hear on the way back from the best summer road trip ever. The vibe is mellow, but not too mellow that you start drifting at the wheel.
The guys relive some great mornings and evenings in high school, get way off track with a discussion about Taking Back Sunday, and as always, almost end up fighting over the same few Brand New songs! Make sure to stream and download the playlist on Apple Music or Spotify!

There are few feelings more visceral to a teenager than the desire to pack a a 1981 Honda Civic full of Doritos Cool Ranch, Mountain Dew, and trail mix and hit the road with your best friends, not knowing where you’re going but leaving this god forsaken town in your rear view mirror. The Great Escape by Boys Like Girls captures that feeling almost perfectly, but so many people were afraid to absolutely admit they LOVED this song. They loved it so much that the ringtone, the RINGTONE was certified gold (500,000 sold) by RIAA.
The guys tell tales of their high school English teacher unironically jamming to this band in 2008, Big Dentist unleashing a global conspiracy to make punk rock kids brush their teeth after a long night of partying, how much spaghetti is too much spaghetti, and why this music video feels more like a “Just Okay Escape”.

Panic! At the Disco dropped their debut album “A Fever You Can’t Sweat Out” in late 2005 and kind of took the entire world by storm. At that time, the whole circus freak vibe wasn’t super mainstream (was it ever?) and music THAT catchy wasn’t often heard side by side with such outlandish imagery. However, Panic! had just the right amount of something that made them a massive success. This week the guys take a look back at the first time they heard the big single “I Write Sins Not Tragedies”, reveal some 15 year kept “secrets” about acquiring the album, and discuss the meaning behind the music video.
