This week Shannon is out on vacation, but Zach and Justin are super stoked to talk about Spiderman Brand New Day, less stoked to talk about Beast of Reincarnation, and an appropriate amount of stoked for Shannon's selection that was made for him for the playlist this week. Check out the TPL Playlist as it evolves each episode:…
