We’re back for our annual recap episode featuring Daniyel Turner, longtime friend of the show. We reintroduce Daniyel and let him share about his time in the Bay Area and what’s next for him. Then we get into our long-awaited albums of the year discussion, highlighting all the records that kept us moving forward. We transition into our favorite moments of the year including travel, concerts, and festivals. What a year for film?! Barbenheimer, Killers of the Flower Moon, and is superhero fatigue real? We’ve got a blockbuster-packed chat of the big screen’s big moments before gushing about some television standouts. The data is in…every second counted this year.
