Craig and Kevin fire up Two Albums, One Year with a return to the not-so-distant past: 2021. Each brings an underrated or overlooked album from that year — gems that got lost in the noise of algorithmic overload and pandemic playlists.

Then it’s the return of the Schizo Music Shuffle — the reimagined format where each host shuffles their personal collection, shares five tracks with the other, and listens throughout the week. They return ready to place those songs into three distinct categories:

🎧 Highlight – The track that stood above the rest
🪞 Reminder – A song that stirred a memory
🚪 New Introduction – Something new that left a mark

But just when Kevin thinks the episode’s cruising, Craig unleashes three surprise segments designed to test musical instincts, memory, and taste:

  1. 🎯 Either/Or: Album Edition
    • 10 rounds of album-versus-album showdowns
    • Winner moves on to the next round
  2. 🧠 First 3 / Last 3
    • Craig names a band or artist
    • Kevin chooses whether to name their first three or last three albums
  3. 🎨 Album Cover Challenge
    • 5 rounds of visual battles
    • Kevin picks the stronger cover art in each matchup

It’s music discovery, nostalgia, and pure Schizo unpredictability — all in one jam-packed episode.
