Album #61: Beyoncé, Part 2 (with Ashlyn Ruth)

This week is the second half of The Guys' conversation about Beyoncé, and her self-titled fifth album Beyoncé. And once again The Guys welcome Ashlyn to the pod.

Ashlyn Ruth is a marketing leader in New York City and longtime pop culture enthusiast (and yes, Drew’s daughter!). Off mic, she’s probably walking through Central Park with a Beyoncé playlist on repeat or convincing anyone who will listen that “Rocket” is an absolute masterpiece.
