Episode 100: Deftones 2016 Album Review

Back to School

It’s over 2.5 years late, but we finally made Episode 100!! “What makes this episode so special?” “Why Deftones?” “Wait, you never recorded Episode 100?”  All fair questions, and we explain all of that pretty quickly, so just get listening. We had a blast doing this show, so we hope you all enjoy it too!  (Also, sorry it runs long, but, like every other show, we didn’t want to cut anything.)
