Dashboard Confessional - "Hands Down" (The Emo Diaries) *Fixed*
An earlier version of this episode was edited very poorly (automatically -- it was my fault!), so please listen to this fixed version. I'm joined by psychologist Daryl Van Tongeren for another Emo Diaries, a segment-based show that gets in its feelings about one great emo song per episode. This week, it's the white whale of 2000s emo: "Hands Down" by Dashboard Confessional. ___________________________ Dan is accepting WA state therapy clients and coaching/consulting clients from everywhere: religiononthemind.com Email Dan: prettygoodvibrationspodcast@gmail.com IG: www.instagram.com/prettygoodvibespod/ Artwork: https://www.nickryanluevano.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.
