Do You Even Music Bro!?!?

Snob - noun 1. a person who imitates, cultivates, or slavishly admires social superiors and is condescending or overbearing to others. 2. a person who believes himself or herself an expert or connoisseur in a given field and is condescending toward or disdainful of those who hold other opinions or have different tastes regarding this field: i.e. a music snob. All snobs are not created equal, and their levels of snobbery can differ greatly depending on what they are being snobby about. I think we can all agree that some of the worst snobs that one can come across in the wild is, yup you guessed it—the elusive music snob. You know, the guy that knows more than anyone else about music in general, and has to let you know about it every chance he gets? You know, the guy that thinks everyone who doesn't appreciate music as much as he does is just another moron that he has to deal with every day? We all know those guys, hell some of us have even been those guys at some point in our lives. Where does this type of snobbery come from? Passion? Arrogance? Privilege? This week we take a dive into a subject that hits especially close to home. Think of it as a bit of a roundtable discussion with a few recovering music snobs. How did it start? How bad did it get And how the hell have we've gotten this far? The bad, the good, and a funny Russ story or two. We break it all down this week.
