Fair enough, I find myself liking the smaller more exploratory jams better. But I understand why the big ones are so popular.

Boise was about 30 minutes of meh to get to 9 minutes of awesome.

I disagree

Having to vote against the best rosewood played in 2025 hurts. PHX Drip is just too good though.

I don’t think it will make much of a difference. Keep it as is.

I struggle to re listen to this jam. During the last few weeks trying to pin my playlist down putting this jam on has felt like a chore and for that reason it’s not my JOTY.

It has a good final 10 minutes or so and I totally get why people like it so much. Just not my favorite.

Jams weren’t weak. In fact I think the top half of the bracket is incredibly strong and I would stack it up with any other years top jams. There was just less of the good stuff overall.

More of a Quality over quantity kind of year in my opinion.

My thought is there was a back door agreement between the VP and the U.S. to allow Maduro to be captured with the understanding she would work with us on oil development. There was a shocking absence of military resistance during his capture by Venezuela.

I see. I’ve also noted a bit of revisionist history when it comes to maduro that isn’t accurate.
I fear the U.S. has underestimated the ability of a dictator to hold a fractured country together. Libya and Iraq are examples that come to mind where the country is still a mess after U.S. regime change

It’s so good. I cried when I first heard it. I’ll be pulling for it in the voting.

No sympathy for Maduro, he’s the worst. But invading a country and kidnapping its ruler sets a bad precedent.

Additionally, I hoped we learned our lesson in Iraq but going into Venezuela for oil could entangle the U.S. in a long and costly affair for years to come.

It feels like most peoples top 10 are similar. Here’s mine.

I can’t believe the masses didn’t enjoy the BD Flamingos reprise as much as did. Was it a top ranked jam no but certainly worthy of top 64 in my opinion.

I have FITS ranked #4, Rockdale #9

I love the 6/27 Rockdale, I’m surprised it isn’t getting the support I thought it would. Maybe because it’s overshadowed by the Fish in the sea played same show?

Thank you @aatgoosepod.bsky.social and @hosewood.bsky.social for all your hard work!

I agree. I have a few short echos and the Grand Rapids cakes and Half step on my playlist. All of those are fairly short but pack a lot.
December 24, 2025 at 11:57 AM
But is it long enough to make the top 64? 🤷‍♂️
December 24, 2025 at 8:21 AM
You called it!
December 14, 2025 at 4:55 AM
I think the falsetto sounds ok to me

Is a great goose show the theme?
