This week, Mark and Alan take a look back at 2025 and reveal their favorite concert, album, and song of the year—and then turn the spotlight over to our listeners’ picks. Alan reviews shows by Susanna Hoffs and Joe Bonamassa, and recaps new documentaries about Counting Crows and Taylor Swift. In music news, the members of Jane’s Addiction apologize to each other and formally break up, Cher gives a controversial performance on SNL, and James Hetfield gets in the holiday spirit.
