A Guest in the House

Our hosts discuss what brought them to team up to do this podcast and look for the sweet spot in discussing the music itself and the issues it raises. This episode takes on best-of lists as Dave and Mickey consider their favorite hip-hop albums and the “kwai-terria” (criteria) that puts them on the list.
