(It's a) Departure

Intro Outro "(It's a) Departure" is the former theme song for My Brother, My Brother and Me, performed by indie rock band The Long Winters.

If the album is played backwards, John Roderick's "dark regards" can be heard.

On January 2, 2021, the lead singer John Roderick made a controversial tweet about a "teaching moment" he had with his daughter, which resulted in him being branded "Bean Dad" and caused more damaging highly anti-Semitic, racist and homophobic comments to rise to the surface. As a result, the brothers decided to use different music going forward on the podcast and Roderick deleted his Twitter account. Roderick later posted an apology on his website.
