# Episode #116 – Rock of Ages

What’s more rock ‘n’ roll than a bunch of Hollywood stars singing karaoke covers of overplayed hair metal hits of the 80’s? NOTHING. Nothing at all. Meanwhile, Elliott gets a few things off his chest about Encyclopedia Brown, Dan proves himself master of the segue, and Hallie is much more interested in talking about Olive Garden than demons.
