  • The Very Very Best of the Nickelback
    Sep 30 2024

    I take the panel or an impromptu journey through Canada's pride and joy, Post Grunge Lords, Nickelback. We play a quick (ish) game of who knows the most about this guitar-driven band. Did you hear us say we like them? Maybe (I will admit I do), but does the rest of the panel? I did have to trick them into this episode. WHO COMES OUT AS THE WINNER?! Spencer? Echo? Rob? Dallin? Listen through the episode and see if you can beat their scores!

    Write us @thepresumptionofgeniuspodcast@gmail.com and write in an album you'd like us to review, or talk to us about your experience with this album/band (or any of our reviewed albums/bands) this thing works a lot better with you involved!

  • Blue by Third Eye Blind
    Sep 22 2024

    Did the spacman really f*ck an ape? Will we ever let you go? Hell no! You're stuck with us on this journey through Blue by Third Eye Blind and all of its alt-rock late 90s glory! This is one of Echo's all-time favorite albums, and it was an absolute pleasure to go through with the panel! We also talk about Bill Nye and his lack of credentials, drugs, sex, and the catchiest of the "do" songs. Can you guess which one we were thinking of?

    Write us @thepresumptionofgeniuspodcast@gmail.com and write in an album you'd like us to review, or talk to us about your experience with this album/band (or any of our reviewed albums/bands) this thing works much better with you involved!
