On today's episode of Vinyl Fridays Brandon & AP Lindsay rate some record stores from their recent trip to Michigan and welcome back guest DJs Mike Tucker & Jeff Gilman. Just in time for a thing called the Oscars (I'm guessing that has something to do with movies) we will be playing songs from some of our favorite movies. That doesn't mean they're always good.
