Today CJ and Spenny attempt to help Emily create a playlist for an upcoming emo-themed party she and friends are planning. Emily didn’t grow up during the height of the emo music scene like CJ or Spen, so her playlist includes a lot of anomalies. This leads the three to discuss the history, meaning, and essence of emo music in general. Is lyrical content the only thing you consider when calling something emo? Or do you think only “screamo” counts like CJ believes? Does Spenny get to educate them on the actual history of emo since he knows way more than both of them combined? No, he’s just the producer. Don’t be silly!

Also, A.I. is getting way too advanced when it comes to catfishing people online. New A.I. can now create completely human-looking faces of people that don’t actually exist. Matt explains the details and horrifying future we now live in on today’s Weird or Wired.

And it’s Hot Dog Day! Celebrate some wieners with CJ and Spenny, as they highlight some of the best places to get a hot dog in Austin and the surrounding area. That’s on today’s CJ is Fat. 

Ok, bye.
