When this Ex Hex album came out, I bought it. Whenever I listen to it, when song #2 starts, I flip back to Tough Enough and listen to it again, and then just put it on repeat until I get sick of it, which is never. I only hit stop when I have to stop listening to music. I've haven't actually listened to whole album, except when I've been too busy to hit repeat on track #1, and then I'm too busy to pay attention, so I've never really listened to the rest of the album.

Maybe WFMU needs a Tough Enough stream that just plays Tough Enough on repeat forever.
