“But by the time this note arrives you will not love me anymore” I had a genuine gasp at how good that line is, like oh my GOD. Brilliant. Like I had to physically recover from how close that hit.

Bug made a somewhat sad story about being on a boat while your love remains on shore but how through your sacrifice others will not be so separated from each other. Matt wrote a song that made the American health system being a eldrich horror through corporate greed. They wrote to their types to a t.

rise up!

Imagine you get up on stage live at the explicitly not Jam Mechanics live show and Matt just comes on stage with a tissue box guitar and just only sings "Lookin' at the ocean" for a collective 9 hours. It would be the most moving performance of my life.

Ah, I'm so glad you're back! Bug, your song may be my new favorite JM song. It's amazing and a niche historical interest of mine 🤣
Can't wait to see you all soon! See you in Portland and Seattle

Hearing the lore behind Point to Prove (I Was an Ugly Kid) was the highlight of my day
I always thought the title was really funny, but Point to Prove is definitely the name

My first time listening to the podcast, I've wanted to listen since the start of season one seeing The Narcissist Cookbook's tumblr posts about it, but i just never got around to it. I'm so glad I had the time to listen today, I will be sure to go through the backlog, and I'm eagerly awaiting the next ep!

[@JamMechanics]

Season 1 is a great time! It’s not too different from this episode, either. We just challenged each other rather than having a guest!
