Talking about music with your friends, trying to make them laugh, and playfully arguing about albums and songs—these are some of the best parts of working at a music website. With our podcast [Waste or Taste](https://www.hearingthings.co/tag/podcast/), we capture that kind of unfiltered banter between longtime critics and friends, and invite you to listen along. 

The concept is simple: Every episode, three Hearing Things founders each bring a new song to the table and debate whether it’s Waste or Taste. Sometimes we will reach a critical consensus; other times it will be fisticuffs, absurdity, or both.

This week, our host [Jill Mapes](https://www.hearingthings.co/author/jill-mapes/) sits down with [Ryan Dombal](https://www.hearingthings.co/author/ryan-dombal/) and [Andy Cush](https://www.hearingthings.co/author/andy-cush/) to delve deep into all-star outtakes and historic recreations: SZA’s *SOS* deluxe edition (deemed *Lana*), Aphex Twin’s [recent rarities comp](https://www.hearingthings.co/an-alternate-universe-aphex-twin-album-curated-from-his-massive-new-rarities-compilation/) (aka *Music From the Merch Desk*), and Timothée Chalamet’s Bob Dylan covers (via the soundtrack for [*A Complete Unknown*](https://www.hearingthings.co/a-deep-dive-into-johnny-cash-offering-bob-dylan-a-bugle-in-a-complete-unknown-2/)). Side quests include doing mushrooms at a bachelor party in rural Virginia, the post-Luigi Mangione rise of pop songs that lust after criminals, and feeling like Jesus in the mosh pit. Get into it.
