#259: Julian, California Coming Down and WHAT’S THE BEST/WORST?!?: Album Covers

Summary
Scott Lucas and Ben Reiser discuss best album covers while Gabe Rodriguez misreads the assignment and presents worst album covers instead, including controversial picks like the banned Beatles "butcher cover" and Scorpions' "Virgin Killer." The episode devolves into arguments about sports (World Cup vs. basketball), Lucas complaining about difficult merch table customers on tour with the Toadies, and Gabe revealing his aversion to horror imagery including The Exorcist and being too scared to watch Human Centipede before bed.
