If You're Listening

"If You're Listening" is all about one person's mission to force her friend to listen to all the music he missed in high school. Sometimes it goes well and Heather broadens her friend's horizons just a little bit. Often times it doesn't go so well and Ramsey spends the episode wondering why anyone would listen to this music, or in extreme cases, launching empty threats at the band that recorded it.
