To critique or not, that is the question. Lou says he likes criticism, then retracts. He says he doesn't edit then talks about how much he edited his new song of the week, The Waiting. Lou says songs speak to him and tell him what to do, like recording with Izzy's toy piano. The episode ends with a live, acoustic, listener request, Love Is Stronger.
