    In this episode, the curtain is peeled back and the listeners get to listen to the "process" of narrowing down a list. An original list of 36 songs associated with 1991 is cut down to 11 to be voted on next week (and it might be missing your favorite). You can listen along as Dion, Irv, Jon, and Marnie inevitably cut your favorite song from 1991. Why 1991, you might ask? Well, in addition to it being a formative time for Dion, Jon, and Marnie as they navigated through their high school years, this happens to be the year that Irv was born!
