And Top 5 is arbitrary, if you got 10 great ones please share them.
I just somehow managed to hear the MC Serch one for the first time and it was one of the best podcast music episodes perrod! ALso remember loving the Q-Tip one.
What are your favorites?

I hate that COVID has pushed the show to a virtual space. While it's probably easier to get guests via Zoom, the chemistry in the studio with the guest was unmatched.
This one surprised me! I liked his bit about the other Commissioned folks not wanting to check out Paisley Park on some I'm-worried-about-my-soul shit and Fred is like, are you kidding? That episode really gave me a deeper respect for Hammond and his influence.

Yeah, me too, and I feel like they've had a lot less room/time to let the conversations unfold naturally -- because most interviewees aren't going to push beyond an hour and a half on Zoom. (TBF, Quest's schedule is probably a lot harder to clear big blocks of time for these days.)
And because the timeframe/dynamic is different, I've felt like some of the flaws of the show are a bit more noticeable, too.
(Quest, I love you, but sometimes a straightforward question is better than a five part question, lol --- the question itself gets lost in the mix. And stop cutting off your guests when they answer (and your co-hosts when they try to ask a question!!!))
