Summary

Gooood morning!For the 20th episode, we take a trip down memory and discuss everything from what we've been watching to why 1998 was such a pivotal cultural year. Here's a shortlist of some hot takes...Jordan finally watched Thor: RagnarokLed Zeppelin never had a bad albumFor some reason Jordan started watching Blue BloodsJoe's distaste for what would become known as the nu-metal A brief eulogy for Anthony Bourdain (RIP)Yes the theme of the 20th episode is what happened 20 years ago. The numerology connects like Corsican Brother. After the break, we sit down with Jose Torres, a producer/filmmaker, who worked on a documentary for Tidal about Big Pun's classic debut album Capital Punishment. The album, which was released in, you guessed it, 1998, stood out as a huge moment for Bronx, NY hip-hop, with its influence still being felt in other variations today. So if you're feeling nostalgic and/or in the mood for a great interview, fire up those Bluetooth speakers or headphones and listen to this episode.Shout-outs to the following…The PointBronx River Art CenterThe Bronx Is ReadingBrook England Hosted on Acast.

    Description: Forget sweater weather, for the 8AM Boys it's the time of year we pull out the knit hats indoors when it gets cold. Nothing says professional more than looking like you judge how paying customers like their coffee at the third wave coffee shop you barista in. We recorded this a while ago and are only posting it now because, as we all know, the best content creators only sporadically put our new content. It's about quality not quantity. We should have a Christmas episode out soon; so fret not, you'll be able to sit around the fire with family this holiday season and enjoy the calming and always family-friendly content of the 8AM Boys.
