For the first time this year, Brandito, Mel, and Bob are all back together — and they’ve got a stacked episode to make up for it. This week, they’re diving into three new albums: Against the Dying of the Light by José González, Ambiguous Desire from Arlo Parks, and THIS MUSIC MAY CONTAIN HOPE by RAYE.

From introspective slow burns to emotionally loaded moments and everything in between, it’s a lineup that feels thoughtful, a little heavy, and surprisingly hopeful — listen along and let us know where hope found you.

While Brandito is busy buying a house and pretending to be a responsible adult, Mel and Incredibob are left unsupervised to hold down the pod. This week, they’re going track-by-track through Cloud 9 by Megan Moroney, The Romantic by Bruno Mars, and The Mountain from Gorillaz.

With Brandito off signing papers and carrying boxes, the vibes range from dreamy to dramatic to full-on chaotic — basically what happens when you leave Mel and Bob home alone with the aux.
