The Voice is back, and so is “The Day After” podcast with my co-host, Voice Season 9 top four finalist Jeffery Austin — along with a snazzy new  theme song by our good American Idol friends, Blake Lewis and Brandon Rogers.

Today, Jeffery and I eventually get around to discussing the final Knockout Rounds of The Voice Season 15, as well as our general thoughts about where the teams stand going into next week’s Live Playoffs. But of course, given our overall lack of enthusiasm for this weak season, we spend the FIRST THIRTY-SIX MINUTES talking about other things, like Bobby Bones’s new full-time mentor gig on American Idol, the cancellation of “Neon Dreams” (and the cancellation of our long-planned Vegas road trip), the Hotel Café, and, most importantly, our predictions, hopes, and neon dreams for the upcoming, soon-to-be-announced cast of RuPaul’s Drag Race All-Stars 4.

If you prefer just The Voice chatter, skip to 36:00 to hear all that jazz — from what went wrong for Colton Smith to what went wrong for Jake Wells. And if you prefer the (much more succinct) written word, you can check out my Voice recaps on Yahoo Entertainment right here.
