With The Bends out of the way, the two wade through the remaining B-sides, a trove of recordings that find the band alternating between some of its most experimental and straightforward songs to date. Austin breaks down a couple of Johnny's guitar solos, while Nick frets about Yorke's latest anti-car track. The two also discuss the history of cursing in Radiohead's catalog.
