After another decently sized break, Dov returns to Hot Cakes from a 90s Stan to share Bo Burnham’s role in the healing process of his pandemic mental health issues. He then discusses what it means to be a sad boy singer-songwriter before a fairly deep dive into three tremendous 90s albums by three sad boy singer-songwriters; Jeff Mangum of Neutral Milk Hotel, Elliott Smith, and Jeff Buckley. After his spiel, Dov gives random categories awards to the singer-songwriters, mainly for his own amusement. Following the monologue, Dov is joined by his friend Zach who previously was a guest on the Cranberries episode. The two of them pay tribute to the late Ozzy Osbourne and then subsequently fawn over Elliott Smith and Jeff Buckley, but not really Jeff Mangum though. Rude.
