Quotes and Taglines:

 * “We do this show every week. We used to do it show every day. We did it every single day for 120 days in row. That was bonkers is what that was — bonkers with a capital ‘B’ and a capital ‘Onkers.’”
 * “Mary’s writing down song requests that you guys are putting in the chat and I’ll go through as many of them as I can — whether I like ‘em or not, whether I know ‘em or not. Although if I really, truly don’t know them at all, it’s like…[pantomimes flicking sticky note to the wind].”
 * “Jessamyn is a requesting a song ‘by that hippie band.’ Good thing there’s only one hippie band, right? Jessamyn lives in Vermont, so I guess she speaks hippie. I don’t speak hippie; I’m a punk.”
 * “Did I just say something really hilarious again? Is that why you’re cracking up? Because I’m just too funny, you guys. My banter and my wit, it’s side-splitting. Look at the kind of presence I exude as the host of this show. It’s crazy. How many Emmys did we win last night? I lost count (because I didn’t count at all). If we won, I haven’t heard about it yet.” (in response to Mary cracking up at request by Mary Pannabecker Steiner: “Please play Billy Joel’s It’s Still Rock ’N Roll To Me or Piano Man.”)
 * “Honestly, for me, a perfect song is a song that I could never, ever tire of hearing. And this is a song that I’ve heard it enough times; I’ve heard it too many times. Maybe that’s because either T.J. Connolly or I ends up playing it almost every baseball game in September for the last God-knows-how-many years.”
 * “It’s great. I’ve loved it for a long time, but then I hit like the 2,000 mark of how many times I’ve heard it and it just didn’t make the hair on my arm stand up on end all of a sudden one day." (on why September is not a “perfect” song)
 * “Goodbye, Ruby Tuesday/Something, something, blues day…” (attempting to sing along to Ruby Tuesday)
 * (RPM) “If you take a break, there’s things that could happen…”
 * “What was my point?”
 * “Such a beautiful song. I don’t know it well enough; I’ve played it before, but…I’m gonna put it on my homework list because I think I can re-learn it without hurting myself and without it feeling like work.” (on Young At Heart)
 * (discussion of Live And Let Die) Josh: “Also, I don’t like when he says at the beginning, ‘And in this ever-changing world in which we live in…’ He says ‘in’ three times, when he probably only needs to say it once: ‘In this ever-changing world in which we live in.’ It’s like, ‘Dude, no.’ It’s just, “This ever-changing world we live in.’ It’s OK to end it with a preposition, because that’s artistic license and whatever; it doesn’t have to be the formal ‘in which we live.’ But ‘In this ever-changing world in which we live in,’ I don’t know what he was thinking.” Mary: “Welcome to the 7th-Inning Stretch, where Josh even critiques Paul McCartney’s lyrics. Enjoy…” Josh: “What else? What’s another horrible McCartney lyric?”
 * “I’m never gonna play that song ever again on this show. I didn’t play it for the first 128 episodes, except for like 15 seconds when we had Ted Allen as our Secret Surprise Special Guest and he wanted to hear it. And he tried to sing along and it was awesome but it was also tough do over Zoom, to do the singing and playing at the same time.” (on September)
