We also talk about holiday music, again, and name our favorite songs of the festive winter season. Plus, a reminder that Max and Nicky's band, Silhouette City, released a brand new EP, in August, called 'Who Do You Want to Be?' available anywhere you listen to music.

You ever hear someone talking about the dream they just had, and you think to yourself, "Man, when is this guy gonna finish talking?" We get it. Sometimes, dreams can be boring to hear about. So, does that mean that all dreams are not really even worth talking about? The boys discuss.

Max and Nicky went to public school growing up and feel that it profoundly contributed to the people they are today, in a good way! Nickon also went to public school, but he has a less positive outlook on it than the twins. Would private school have been a better option for him? In general, what's better for kids? Can we even generalize something so complex and multi-faceted as education? Let's see if we can on this week's episode of Splitting Hairs!

Video games offer us a whole world of music that we don't normally find through the traditional outlets for music. The modern world of streaming and more democratization of arts distribution has of course allowed for easier paths to discover all of these wonderful musical delights... But that's a whole other discussion to be had. Today, we're talking about something else: What is better video game music, classic 8-bit and 16-bit era video game music or modern video game music? Join us as we attempt to debate something pretty darned subjective and see if we can extract any truths from this very opinion based discussion.
