Welcome back or welcome to Clique Bait! We have a good one this week as we welcome a very, very special guest; our first born, son extraordinaire, "Jorrrrrrrrrrrrge" (extra heavy roll on that R) to the show! Jorge gets into his top ten twenty one pilots songs and we play along with ours as well. We give our thoughts on the stupid Grammy's, Tyler's poor driving habits (apparently), and all the other news out there this week! Oh yeah, huge congrats to our "daddy," Joshua William Dun on his recent Rock Drummer of the Year award from Drumeo! So very well-deserved for our favorite drummer! Closing things out is a super smart deep dive into 'Mulberry Street' from Scaled and Icy. Tee knocks it right out of the park with her thoughtful analysis as always. Thank you all for being here and following along with us each week, we sure appreciate and love you all! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

We're going low this week, Frens, with an all-out Bandito themed episode! I'm not sure we planned it that way but here we are. We get into the normal news and notes from the week that was, including some more observations from Alter Ego Fest, Clikkies behaving badly during the crowd walk, closure for "No Mercy-gate," & more! JJ proposes a new merch idea for all the Clique Moms out there and Tee introduces the all new Clique Bait sourdough starter, BandiDOUGH! He could be a rye dough, but he knows that he's sourdough...he is BandiDOUGH...get it?! Finally we close things out with a sploosh-inducing lore deep dive into the origins of the word/character "Bandito." Are they all escapees? Survivors? Or indigenous people of Trench? Find out in another expertly crafted deep dive by your fave podcasters. Thank you as always for listening and being a part of the Clique Bait fam, we love you guys! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Welcome back, Frens! We are back and so are the boys, FINALLY! That's right, we have some live music to talk about again and we are SO excited! This week we bring you all the usual news and notes, plus our reactions to the Alter Ego Fest performance of a lifetime. What an absolutely incredible short set by our band! The masters of transitions strike again with their ability to cram 12 songs into a 40 minute set and boy did they not disappoint! We had the regular hits, plus plenty of Breach to make it fresh and the boys looked SO refreshed and ready! We are SO back, y'all! Of course we get into our listener reactions, plenty of sploosh, and a satisfying deep dive into 'Bounce Man' from Scaled and Icy. Plus, Tee gives a bonus life lesson based off of 'Stressed Out' in case you love that song as much as JJ does! You guys, we're totally killing it with the downloads and interactions for this show and it's all because of YOU! Thank you so much for being here and making this happen, we love you guys. We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Let's all go to the movies, let's all go to the movies!!! That's right, Frens, we're getting an all new twenty one pilots movie! We hope you're as excited as we are, and we hope to see some of you there! This week, we give some predictions of what we think will be in the film, some festival set list ideas, tons and tons of listener updates, a really amazing TOP fan doing amazing things, and a new round of 2026 TOP song mantras by request from some of our loyal listeners. We are also officially kicking off our campaign for a 2027 Golden Globe nomination in the Best Podcast category and we're gonna need all the help and support from the Clique! This is a joke (kinda...)! Additionally, due to overwhelming demand, approval, and participation, the Spoti5 hence forth shall be know as the "SpotiSploosh!" Don't worry Spoti5 OGs, you will keep your "first 5" status! In case you couldn't tell, we're having an absolute blast doing this and it wouldnt be so fun (or even possible) without all of you! For that, we say THANK YOU! Thank you for listening, participating, following, sharing, and all the things! We LOVE you! Have a great week...we are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Welcome back, Frens! We have a good one for you this week (as usual, am I right?!)! The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is back in the news with its wide release broadcast on January 1st. The boys were HEAVILY featured in the promo materials with some even calling their performance a masterpiece! Of course we couldn't agree more! We also get into some year-end 2025 charts and poll results, discuss a buns reaction channel that called the 'Downstairs' live video "dramatic" instead of seeing the passion and power behind it, a new personality type has entered the conversation (hello, Otroverts!), listener reactions, @coolcatspooky doing amazing things, and more! Closing things out is a fun new twist on the Song Deep Dive where Tee gives us our 2026 mantras based on the first twenty one pilots songs we listened to in the new year - Levitate for JJ and The Contract for Tee! Let's see if we can stick to them all year long! Thank you as always for being here and supporting us on this journey. This show is for YOU and we sure hope we're doing it justice. We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

This week we get into all the twenty one pilots-related gifts we got, including a special a trip to Europe to see two festivals! All the latest news, listener comments from the Spoti5 and beyond, and so much more, including a fun little game of "What if twenty one pilots had 21 members...who would they be?!"

Christmas shenanigans in the news, fan shoutouts, and a very special holiday double song deep dive featuring 'Christmas Saves the Year' AND 'Smithereens' from the album Trench!

We love having you guys here and all the interaction and fun that comes with it! We wish you all a very happy Christmas holiday tomorrow and may you have the absolute best week!

First things first, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO CLANCY'S JUMPSUIT from the Spotify Clique! We missed that it was her birthday today during recording so we want to make sure everyone knows here! Second, HUGE congrats to our favorite drummer and is best lady, Josh and Debby Dun, on their beautiful baby girl, Felix Winter! Best of luck to them and many prayers and well-wishes for a healthy and happy life with your their precious Moonbeam. besides the big baby news, there's not a ton going on in the twenty one pilots universe this week but whatever there is, we've got you covered here! Listener Shoutouts this week covers some new friends from the socials who have been sliding into the DMs, and the creation of an all new super group in the Spotify Clique - introducing The Spoti5! These are our five original listeners who decided to comment with us every week and JJ can't remember the names so we've given them a group! Later we feature @gobsmackeddonthesitate from TikTok who makes amazing DJ-style mashups of all your favorite TOP songs, proving that you can indeed twerk to Forest...when it's mixed with Hometown! Thank you, Adam, for this incredible public service! We close things out with Tee's Lore Deep Dive where she breaks down some of the physical DEMA letters that were sent to fans in recent years. The details and things this band gives back to the fanbase is truly something remarkable and may never be seen again by any group out there. For that, we say THANK YOU! Speaking of thank you, thanks so much for listening and being a part of our little fam! We love all of you! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Hey, Frens, we are back with a fresh, new episode! This week we whip out our telescope to take a look back in time, not at our reflection, but at the beauty and potential meanings of 'Cottonwood' in a very deep song deep dive. We also get into Tee's harrowing car accident adventures, JJ's first therapy session, a trading post pop-up for the ages with our TOP fan doing amazing things, listener feedback, 2024 Jingle Ball revisits, and SO much more! We're really all over the place in this one but isn't that what we all need right now? Just some good old twenty one pilots freestyle to keep the week going! Thank you all for listening and being part of this journey with us. We are having so much fun and it's all because of you! For those that let us know we made your Spotify Wrapped for 2025, we are just THRILLED and so excited that you're part of the Clique Bait fam! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

It's time to be comfortable with being uncomfortable, Frens! This week we wish a very happy 37th (what?!) birthday to our king, Tyler Joseph! We hope it was a good one, sir...now get back to making music already! We also cover the West Coast Jebby baby shower heard 'round the world (don't worry, people, everything is fine...these people are indeed allowed to have other friends!), new segment of Listener Feedback featuring a "JJ was right" victory lap, and all the new festival news out there. Closing things out is the always insightful Tee giving us a great and informative final lore deep deep dive on the dmaorg.info saga that we all know and love (a lot better now!). It's a great show, duh, with all the good twenty one pilots stuff for ya! Thanks as always for listening and being the greatest fans around, we sure appreciate you! For now, we are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

I know it's hard to believe me, it's Clique Bait a day early! That's right, we hurried and hustled to get this one to you before your Thanksgiving travels so you can listen and let all your family and friends know the latest in the TOP universe! For our American frens, HAPPY THANKSGIVING tomorrow, and for everyone else, HAPPY WHATEVER YOU WANT! We just hope everyone is having a "Good Day" wherever you are. This week we do a deep dive into Scaled and Icy's opening track, 'Good Day' and look at it from a few different perspectives. We also finally give some scientific answers to which twenty one pilots songs it's acceptable to twerk to (and which ones to avoid at all costs). This segment has a few surprises that no one was expecting! We also breakdown the latest Joseph Family Halloween photos, why they heck they are already decorated for Christmas, and the latest on the summer festival front. It's another packed episode for you to enjoy on this lovely holiday eve! What better time to share us with your family and friends?!

Hello, Frens! What an episode we have for you this week! Believe it or not, we are not just stage 5 glazers like you may think! We actually have a few things we don't like from the boys. We get into our top 5 most cringey things that make us scratch our heads when it comes to our favorite guys. We also take things a little deeper on the Seven Nation Army tribute heard round the world...wow, do some people feel some type of way about that performance! Closing things out is part for of our lore deep dive series on dmaorg.info. We get into the final updates on the website from 2018 and promise to get into more on future episodes. All this and more on another action-packed episode of everyone's favorite twenty one pilots podcast! Thank you all so much for listening and following along, we sure appreciate you all! Remember to tell your dog to tell their dog friends and maybe their dog parents to subscribe, rate, review, and follow! It takes all of us, always! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Welcome back, or welcome to, Clique Bait! This week, a Seven Nation Army couldn't hold us back from getting into all the details of probably the coolest tribute performance of all time. From the veils and their potential meanings, Tyler's subtle vocal changes, to Josh's incredible drumming (as always), we cover all the goods from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony. While we do that, we get a little rock & roll history lesson from JJ, we call out some of the haters, and shoutout some amazing fans who keep us smiling all week long. Closing things out is a moving song deep dive by Tee featuring 'Downstairs' from the album Breach. This one is a good one, Frens, and we're so happy you're here for it! We love all our fans and we are so excited to continue bringing this content to you every week. Keep the comments coming and the good vibes flowing, and thank YOU for being such loyal pals. We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Turn the volume up...can you hear that? Maybe a little louder...can you hear it now??? probably not because we have officially entered Ordinary Time! That's right, the tour is over, Breach talk has slowed to a crawl, the boys have gone radio silence on socials, and we are here left wondering what the heck is going on! It's like part of our family has left and it's hard, Frens. But we are here for you and each other. Don't be sad, let's keep the good twenty one pilots vibes going with some light and entertaining talk about our favorite band. This ep we get into some R&R HOF updates (we were right...again...) and breakdown how pumped we are for a White Stripes cover performance, Debby's Jebbyween post of her and Josh is just trolling us now, our thoughts on why Breach achieved such high praise and popularity, and closing things out is part 3 of the dmaorg.info lore deep dive. Thank you so much for listening and telling your friends about our little slice of the TOP universe. We sure are grateful, and we need each other now more than ever. Let's stick together and keep this train moving! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Happy Clique-a-ween (you'll find out later in the episode why this is funny)! We bring you this action-packed episode fresh off the plane from Southern California where we took a whirlwind weekend to see the final show of The Clancy Tour: Breach in Los Angeles. What a great time we had back in our home state, complete with some California-only food that we have missed, a trip to Disneyland where the magic began 20 years ago for your hosts, 'Tear in My Heart' video sites, and of course THE best show of the tour! Lots of tears were shed, screaming was had, and the third-ever live performance of 'Downstairs' had us weak with gratitude for this amazing band and community. We recap all of it for you on this episode where we skip the lore and song deep-dives to bring you our very fresh takes on all things twenty one pilots, Breach, and what may be next for the boys. We also tease the latest clique conspiracy surfacing about the missing/stolen 'Level of Concern' thumb drive! Thank you so much for listening to us and following along. It really means the world to us. We don't have many real friends thanks to good ol' anxiety and social awkwardness, but we have connected with so many from this community and it's really just a beautiful thing that heals our souls. We love you all and can't wait to keep doing this for a long time! For now, we are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!
