Mike, Max and Shane discuss their time apart, Arkells’ trip to Korea for the Olympics, Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir, cover songs and Mike’s California road trip. Chris Carrabba of Dashboard Confessional (“Hands Down,” “Vindicated”) tells Mike about his Connecticut upbringing, moving to Florida, teaching, building a fan base, trusting instincts, avoiding new music when songwriting, the term “emo” and famous fans. For dessert, Shane describes a passion for managing maternity blogs, his heated interaction with “The Nut” and shares an update on his quest to interview Nathan Fielder.
