In this episode of "Beat Motel," Andrew Culture and _Spamuel Rage_ (because who else could conjure up such bizarre music choices?) return to the long-anticipated second half of their chaos-fueled breakdown: _Great Band, Terrible Decision_. Naturally, things get out of hand, with deep dives into bands that alienate their own fans, riffs that make zero sense, and Devon Townsend’s baffling alien coffee addiction (yes, seriously).

Expect more music geekery, deranged anecdotes, and Andrew’s rants about Finnish milkmen’s stiffy-shaped bottles—because why not? They also explore what happens when you ask your partner, mid-act, “Who’s making love?”—results vary.

Highlights:

- ASMR misfires and a thorough misunderstanding of the purpose of _ASMR_ (what even is it?!)

- Andrew Culture’s near-confession about allotment-based dogging (we're all left hanging, thank God).

- How _King Prawn_ went from experimental brilliance to “WTF were they thinking?”

- The horror of strapping young lads deciding to ditch metal for ‘comedy’. Spoiler: it wasn't funny.

- Why asking random bus-stop strangers “Who's making love?” in Finland leads to awkward silence and not much else.

It’s a wild ride as always, with random bouts of technical difficulties and Andrew Culture monologuing about _Spamuel Rage_’s suspiciously symbolic tassels. Oh, and they manage to insult at least three beloved bands (because that's how they roll).

Listen for laughs, questionable musical taste, and a slight risk of learning absolutely nothing.
