Jack Black Wisdom: Chrono-Marathons

The Ben and Skin Show

When was the last time you listened to an entire album—start to finish—just to feel something real again?In this introspective and unexpectedly hilarious episode of The Ben and Skin Show, hosts Ben Rogers, Jeff “Skin” Wade, Kevin “KT” Turner, and Krystina Ray dive into the soulful side of music fandom, sparked by a surprisingly profound moment from none other than Jack Black.Fresh off his appearance on Amy Poehler’s podcast, Jack Black shares his love for “chrono marathons”—listening to a band’s entire discography in chronological order. That simple idea sends the crew spiraling into a passionate, nostalgic, and often hilarious conversation about the music that shaped them, the bands they discovered too late, and the joy of rediscovering forgotten tracks.This episode is a love letter to music nerds, vinyl junkies, and anyone who’s ever sat in a rocking chair with a glass of Scotch and let an album wash over them. It’s about slowing down, tuning in, and remembering why music matters.
