S5E225 - Ween 'Chocolate and Cheese' with Josh Medsker

When <strong>Aaron Freeman</strong> and <strong>Mickey Melchiondo</strong> - better known by their respective stage names <strong>Gene and Dean Ween</strong> of the band <strong>Ween</strong> - were given full reign of a professional recording studio for their 4th studio album, they rose to the occasion and crafted 1994's <strong>"Chocolate and Cheese"</strong>.
