The Harvard of Music: 2025 Charts & Polls, Drama vs. Passion, & Choosing Our 2026 Mantra From Songs

Welcome back, Frens! We have a good one for you this week (as usual, am I right?!)!

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is back in the news with its wide release broadcast on January 1st. The boys were HEAVILY featured in the promo materials with some even calling their performance a masterpiece! Of course we couldn't agree more!

We also get into some year-end 2025 charts and poll results, discuss a buns reaction channel that called the 'Downstairs' live video "dramatic" instead of seeing the passion and power behind it, a new personality type has entered the conversation (hello, Otroverts!), listener reactions, @coolcatspooky doing amazing things, and more!

Closing things out is a fun new twist on the Song Deep Dive where Tee gives us our 2026 mantras based on the first twenty one pilots songs we listened to in the new year - Levitate for JJ and The Contract for Tee! Let's see if we can stick to them all year long!

Thank you as always for being here and supporting us on this journey. This show is for YOU and we sure hope we're doing it justice. We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!
