Jason and Paul return to their Playlist series and considering the time of year use "back to school" as the theme. But it's not songs for classes....nope. It's songs that relate to the mindset and values of learning and bettering one's self. Anyone can use these songs!

**Apologies for the crickets behind Jason's audio -- unfortunately it was unavoidable**

Jason and Paul welcome "I Am No Guide" author, Brian "Stip" Stipelman and Sheehan Perera from Concertpants back to the show for a hypothetical question -- one that The Beatles had to navigate themselves: if the band felt compelled to choose one direction moving forward should it be to continue making records in the studio and abstain from touring or forego making new music to focus on playing live concerts? The Beatles chose the former. With the band getting on in age is that a question Pearl Jam may pose itself? The guys debate and discuss.

Jason and Paul launch a new series where they retroactively review past Pearl Jam albums...get it!? Due to the success of the Gigaton and Dark Matter review the guys decided it a good idea to go back in time and look at each Pearl Jam album and review them with today's context in mind. Music, lyrics, themes and social application are all applied in their 1-5 rating system. First up -- Ten!
