Episode 177: Free Play 29

Get pumped out with the boizz as Rob once again joins Brent in person.  This episode was recorded a month before its release, so Brent and Rob talk about things the way they might have expected them to be in the future (a month in the future, that is).  Brent also helps Rob come up with a big time money making idea for his new barbershop.  Plus, not only does Rob sing along to music without delay, he munches along to the music without delay.  Full track listing below.
