DISCLAIMER!!! TRIGGER WARNING!!!

This episode talks heavily about suicide topics including ideations, attempts, and the mental condition that may lead to these thoughts and actions. If this topic is triggering to you in anyway, we advise that you listen with caution and/or skip this episode. Sincerely, Mr. & Mrs. Cliquebait.

Okay, you saw the warning and disclaimer so if you're still here, thank you! This is important stuff, and while we like to keep it light and have fun, we endeavor to educate when we can, and cover every song, even if it won't be all fun and games. This week is just that, and it's important, especially this month. September is recognized globally as Suicide Prevention Month so what better time to get into those topics?

This week we have a few news and notes before things get heavy with a thoughtful deep dive into "Friend, Please" - the 5th track off Self Titled. It's deep, it's necessary, and it's important. We're sorry if you have to skip this one, but we hope you don't. If you stuck around, we hope you love it and take some hope from it.

We are, now more than ever, Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens.

WHOA! What up, Clique?! What did we all just witness last weekend in the UK?! For those lucky enough to be at All Points East last Sunday, you know what we are talking about, but if you weren't (like us), we put in the work and have all the important info for ya!

First things first, there were a LOT of new things to explore at the FPE & Bandito Camp and we have all the hot takes ready for your earholes. Of course we have all the latest news and listener feedback for you too, but the real treat is a fabulous and thoughtful deep dive into the special covers of "Creep" by Radiohead and "Let It Be" by the Beatles. The always smart (and incredibly beautiful) Mrs. Cliquebait gets super deep into what these covers could mean and it is truly something else!

Thanks for listening as always. We love you all and are so grateful for you following this journey! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Welcome back or welcome to if you're new! It's your favorite day of the week and we are back with another jam-packed episode for ya!

This week we share our experience at another band's show, My Chemical Romance at Comerica Park in Detroit, MI! Let's just say we had a great time, it was "different," but also very much the same as a TØP show...like that one family member you have...you know them, but it's a little weird!

We also get into all the latest news and notes from Frequency Festival, some All Points East predictions, and then finish things up with a super insightful look into the Breach Tour costume lore. It's a good one and we hope you enjoy it!

Thank you as always for being here and following along. We love you guys and this wouldn't be remotely fun without you! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

This week, Mr. Cliquebait get into a very deep dive of ‘No Chances,’ the tenth track from Scaled and Icy. What does it all mean?! Is Nico having a convo with Clancy or are we missing the point all together? We get into it and hopefully explain everything you’ve been wondering over the years.

Thank you, as always for being here. We love you all and wouldn’t do this without you! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Hey, Frens, welcome back to another fine episode of twenty one pilots pod for your earholes! This week we have all the news and notes from the More Than We Ever Imagined watch party, exclusive Q&A with the boys, and our thoughts on the new live album. The Q& A was everything and the album is quickly becoming one of Mr. Cliquebait's favorites!

Later, Mrs. Cliquebait gets into more costume lore, this time specifically covering all the unique stylistic choices during the Clancy Tour. It's deep, it's good, it's deeply good!

Thank you so much for being here, as always! We do this for you and we love that you keep showing up for us and the only band in the world! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

You'll want to stay awake for this one because Cliquebait's not taking any prisoners with this episode! We start things off with all the latest news and notes to bless your earholes with anything you may have missed over the past week

Following the normal chatter from your favorite Clique mom & dad, we get into the deepest of deep dives (seriously, Mr. Cliquebait had to take an extended toweling off after this one) with the always elegant and eloquent Mrs. Cliquebait giving you all the angles and theories around 'Ode To Sleep,' the first track off Vessel.

It's a long (hey, you said you liked long so we went looooooong), incredibly informative and fun episode and we're so glad you're here for it! Thanks as always for joining us and being here along this incredible journey that is Cliquebait: A twenty one pilots Podcast. We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

This week, Mr. Cliquebait teases a potential theory about "Dark Josh" or "Torchbearer Noir" and Mrs. Cliquebait gets into more lore thoughts and possibilities concerning the costumes the boys choose and wear. What the heck does it all mean?! We'll never really know but we sure are gonna talk about it!

Hey, Frens, welcome to another fresh episode of Cliquebait! This week we get into some incredible theories and ideas, but not before we wish our very special Helena Guadalupe a very happy birthday! Let her know just how much you don't care in the comments this week!

Later, we explore some recent lore theories, news and notes from all the latest festivals, and Mr. Cliquebait closes things out with a thoughtful deep dive into 'One Way' with a bonus look at 'Stolen Dance' by Milky Chance and how it might connect to the twenty one pilots lore.

It's a good one, Frens, and we are so happy you're here to listen! Thank you so much for your loyalty and for being such great people, we love ya! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

We're back!!! That's right, Frens, your favorite Mr. & Mrs. are back from a crazy trip through Europe to see the boys and all the European things! It's so good to be back in the States and on the air with all of you, you have no idea. We missed you!

This week we have full reviews of our shows at the Rock Werchter and Main Square Festivals, trials and tribulations of our road trip around Europe, news and notes, and so much more! Closing the show out, Mrs. CB gets into more theories and information around the black paint and masks worn by the band during live shows past and present.

Sorry gang, we’ve been weary travelers with VERY bad WiFi! Here’s a very quick placeholder from the road. More to come very soon!

Hey, Frens, welcome back (or to) another episode of your favorite twenty one pilots podcast! We are here to bring you all the news and potential lore tidbits from the first three festivals of the 2026 European tour! What do all the clues mean? Are the boys beefin'? Why is Tyler starting to look like a vulture with his new jacket? There's so much to unpack and we have it all for ya!

Closing things out this week is the always insightful and brilliant Mrs. Cliquebait with a moving and important deep dive into 'Intentions,' the final song from Breach. As always, there is so much more to the lyrics and the music that what we already think we know, and Mrs. Cliquebait breaks it down beautifully for us!

Bear with us, Frens, the CB family is heading out on vacation and some festivals of our own! The show will feel and sound a little different over the next few weeks, but we will be back to normal soon after that! We promise to bring you the best content we can while we're on holiday, though!

We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Gotcha! You totally thought we were talking about 'Saturday' with that title but we're not! That's right, we don'e even MENTION 'Saturday' this week! This episode is all about the potential meanings behind Tyler's black neck and hands paint, when and why he paints them, and what they could mean in relation to the lore (and lore-adjacent) videos. It's a fascinating look into Tyler's mind, when we see Clancy manifest, and so much more! Mrs. Cliquebait brings it with this one and we're sure you'll love it!

To lighten things up, son of the show, Jorge, blesses our earholes with an incredible solo version of 'Levitate' complete with beat boxing, instrumental sounds, and lyrical layers. It's a real treat! We also hear a twenty one pilots fan doing amazing things with a similar rendition of 'City Walls.' Whatever happens, a good time will be had and you just might learn something!

Thank you all so much for being here and following along, we love you all! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Welcome back to another fab episode of your favorite (the only, really, let's face it) twenty one pilots podcast! This week, Mr. Cliquebait takes unique look a potential hidden meaning buried in 'Tear In My Heart' from Blurryface. Is it just the heartfelt love song we've always thought it was or is there something deeper maybe involving the lore and the Bishops? You'll have to listen to the end to find out!

We know what you're thinking...and you might be right...Mr. Cliquebait is an idiot and didn't realize we already covered TIMH, but this one is different, we promise! We also get into the latest posts and news from josh, Debby, and baby Felix, and so much more!

Thanks so much for being here as always! We hope you love the show as much as we love you! Festivals start soon so we'll have exciting things to talk about in the coming weeks so tell your friends, your dogs, and your dog's friends to subscribe and tune in! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Hey, Frens, welcome to another fine episode of twenty one pilots pod for your ear holes! This week, Mr. Cliquebait is able to keep himself together for another shot at a proper AMAs ‘Drag Path’ review. We also give a proper roasting to Billboard Magazine for their ridiculous placing of the performance at 13/14…that’s right, second WORST! What the heck were they thinking?!

Closing things out is Mrs. Cliquebait’s conclusion to her ‘Levitate’ lore deep dive where she ties it all together and explains how this one song may be THE story of DEMA, Clancy, and the Bishops. Trust us it’s good!

Thank you as always for being here and sharing this journey with us, we love you all! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

You guys, WE DID IT!!! That's right, we are reporting live (at the time of recording) from the American Music Awards (not really live, but from the live stream!) for a raw and real reaction to probably the most beautiful performance of not just 'Drag Path' but maybe any twenty one pilots song to date!

More importantly, our boys took home the hardware for Best Rock/Alternative Artist at this year's AMAs and we couldn't be happier for all their hardworking to be recognized this year! We know this is a fan-voted deal, but I think that means even more, especially to Josh and Tyler.

And then there is the performance...wow, just WOW! What an incredible arrangement, visual performance, and overall touching moment to witness. It was so good, Mr. Cliquebait was finally silenced and was even brought to tears. What was supposed to be a live reaction was nothing but a teary mess!

We also cover all the latest news on the "Battle of Columbus" and close things out with Part 1 of a very insightful lore deep dive based off the song 'Levitate' from Trench. Mrs. Cliquebait promises this will confirm the lore is NOT over but you'll have to wait for next episode to see if you agree with her!

Thank you all for your continued support. You all continue to make this a magical experience for us and we love you for it! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Enter sad trombone here...that's right, your very own Mr. & Mrs. Cliquebait lost the Ticketmaster war during the artist presale and (as of now, anyway) are not going TØ THERE...for now...

In this week's episode we tell youn all about our trials and tribulations trying to get in on the Ohio Stadium show artist presale, what we think the show will be like, what we're gonna do if we actually can get in, and so much more!

Closing things out is the always insightful and eloquent Mrs. Cliquebait with an incredible deep dive into 'Fairly Local' in celebration of the 11th birthday of Blurryface. Ig's a great one and, while we don't have tickets, at least we have each other and this incredible podcast!

Thank you all so much for listening and following along, we love you all! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

There has been an awaking! A disturbance in the Clikkie Force has been detected! The boys are at it again with all the cryptic posts for us to figure out and WE. ARE. HERE. FOR. IT! We get into what we knew at the time of recording regarding the FRØM HERE campaign taking Columbus by storm. Since recording and posting this episode, SO much more has happened so be on the lookout for a bonus episode coming out very soon! 👀

Aside from all the news and notes for the week, we get into something very new and VERY interesting later in the show! That's right, it's a full geek-out Science Sploosh with Mr. Cliquebait where we get into music's effect on the Vagus Nerve and how twenty one pilots music specifically stimulates our nervous system in ways we've never imagined! It's a fascinating change of pace that explains all those emotions and physical sensations we get when we hear our favorite band.

Thank you all so much for being here the past year and beyond! We love you and can't wait to bring more content to you! We are Cliquebait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

We also have some fun batting around some alternate album names for the entire TØP catalog, share Josh Dun's latest half marathon stats, and just how much money our streams and views help the boys achieve their dreams of financial freedom! 😂

Speaking of finances, Mr. Cliquebait wants to quit working and be a full-time podcaster for you all so keep them downloads coming! Just kidding, Frens. Being full-time for you would be awesome, but I don't want your money! 🤣

It's just a fun episode with all kinds of silliness to keep us going for the week!

Wrapping things up is an AnnaB assisted lore deep dive into some of her theories about the lore NOT being over! We know the boys said it was done but some of us are not giving up so easily. One heavy theory is all about the color purple and what it means to the storyline, hence the name of this ep!

We are also officially kicking off our campaign for a 2027 Golden Globe nomination in the Best Podcast category and we're gonna need all the help and support from the Clique!

Welcome back, Frens! We have a good one for you this week (as usual, am I right?!)!

The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame is back in the news with its wide release broadcast on January 1st. The boys were HEAVILY featured in the promo materials with some even calling their performance a masterpiece! Of course we couldn't agree more!

We also get into some year-end 2025 charts and poll results, discuss a buns reaction channel that called the 'Downstairs' live video "dramatic" instead of seeing the passion and power behind it, a new personality type has entered the conversation (hello, Otroverts!), listener reactions, @coolcatspooky doing amazing things, and more!

Closing things out is a fun new twist on the Song Deep Dive where Tee gives us our 2026 mantras based on the first twenty one pilots songs we listened to in the new year - Levitate for JJ and The Contract for Tee! Let's see if we can stick to them all year long!

Thank you as always for being here and supporting us on this journey. This show is for YOU and we sure hope we're doing it justice. We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays, Frens! We are for your cheer and are bringing all the holiday happiness for your earholes! Christmas shenanigans in the news, fan shoutouts, and a very special holiday double song deep dive featuring 'Christmas Saves the Year' AND 'Smithereens' from the album Trench!

We're a little goofy on this one but that's okay! Sometimes we need a little fun in our lives. Thank you all so much for the best gift of all - your listening for the past half-year. We love having you guys here and all the interaction and fun that comes with it! We wish you all a very happy Christmas holiday tomorrow and may you have the absolute best week! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

First things first, HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO CLANCY'S JUMPSUIT from the Spotify Clique! We missed that it was her birthday today during recording so we want to make sure everyone knows here!

Second, HUGE congrats to our favorite drummer and is best lady, Josh and Debby Dun, on their beautiful baby girl, Felix Winter! Best of luck to them and many prayers and well-wishes for a healthy and happy life with your their precious Moonbeam.

besides the big baby news, there's not a ton going on in the twenty one pilots universe this week but whatever there is, we've got you covered here! Listener Shoutouts this week covers some new friends from the socials who have been sliding into the DMs, and the creation of an all new super group in the Spotify Clique - introducing The Spoti5! These are our five original listeners who decided to comment with us every week and JJ can't remember the names so we've given them a group!

Later we feature @gobsmackeddonthesitate from TikTok who makes amazing DJ-style mashups of all your favorite TOP songs, proving that you can indeed twerk to Forest...when it's mixed with Hometown! Thank you, Adam, for this incredible public service!

We close things out with Tee's Lore Deep Dive where she breaks down some of the physical DEMA letters that were sent to fans in recent years. The details and things this band gives back to the fanbase is truly something remarkable and may never be seen again by any group out there. For that, we say THANK YOU!

Speaking of thank you, thanks so much for listening and being a part of our little fam! We love all of you! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Hey, Frens, we are back with a fresh, new episode! This week we whip out our telescope to take a look back in time, not at our reflection, but at the beauty and potential meanings of 'Cottonwood' in a very deep song deep dive.

We also get into Tee's harrowing car accident adventures, JJ's first therapy session, a trading post pop-up for the ages with our TOP fan doing amazing things, listener feedback, 2024 Jingle Ball revisits, and SO much more! We're really all over the place in this one but isn't that what we all need right now? Just some good old twenty one pilots freestyle to keep the week going!

Thank you all for listening and being part of this journey with us. We are having so much fun and it's all because of you! For those that let us know we made your Spotify Wrapped for 2025, we are just THRILLED and so excited that you're part of the Clique Bait fam! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

It's time to be comfortable with being uncomfortable, Frens! This week we wish a very happy 37th (what?!) birthday to our king, Tyler Joseph! We hope it was a good one, sir...now get back to making music already!

We also cover the West Coast Jebby baby shower heard 'round the world (don't worry, people, everything is fine...these people are indeed allowed to have other friends!), new segment of Listener Feedback featuring a "JJ was right" victory lap, and all the new festival news out there.

Closing things out is the always insightful Tee giving us a great and informative final lore deep deep dive on the dmaorg.info saga that we all know and love (a lot better now!). It's a great show, duh, with all the good twenty one pilots stuff for ya!

Thanks as always for listening and being the greatest fans around, we sure appreciate you! For now, we are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

I know it's hard to believe me, it's Clique Bait a day early! That's right, we hurried and hustled to get this one to you before your Thanksgiving travels so you can listen and let all your family and friends know the latest in the TOP universe! For our American frens, HAPPY THANKSGIVING tomorrow, and for everyone else, HAPPY WHATEVER YOU WANT! We just hope everyone is having a "Good Day" wherever you are.

This week we do a deep dive into Scaled and Icy's opening track, 'Good Day' and look at it from a few different perspectives. We also finally give some scientific answers to which twenty one pilots songs it's acceptable to twerk to (and which ones to avoid at all costs). This segment has a few surprises that no one was expecting!

We also breakdown the latest Joseph Family Halloween photos, why they heck they are already decorated for Christmas, and the latest on the summer festival front. It's another packed episode for you to enjoy on this lovely holiday eve!

What better time to share us with your family and friends?! Make this year's holiday a little bit brighter by sharing your favorite podcasters with the rest of your gang! Thank you as always for being here and we truly hope you have a great week! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Hello, Frens! What an episode we have for you this week! Believe it or not, we are not just stage 5 glazers like you may think! We actually have a few things we don't like from the boys. We get into our top 5 most cringey things that make us scratch our heads when it comes to our favorite guys. We also take things a little deeper on the Seven Nation Army tribute heard round the world...wow, do some people feel some type of way about that performance!

Closing things out is part for of our lore deep dive series on dmaorg.info. We get into the final updates on the website from 2018 and promise to get into more on future episodes.

All this and more on another action-packed episode of everyone's favorite twenty one pilots podcast! Thank you all so much for listening and following along, we sure appreciate you all! Remember to tell your dog to tell their dog friends and maybe their dog parents to subscribe, rate, review, and follow! It takes all of us, always! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Welcome back, or welcome to, Clique Bait! This week, a Seven Nation Army couldn't hold us back from getting into all the details of probably the coolest tribute performance of all time. From the veils and their potential meanings, Tyler's subtle vocal changes, to Josh's incredible drumming (as always), we cover all the goods from the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame induction ceremony.

While we do that, we get a little rock & roll history lesson from JJ, we call out some of the haters, and shoutout some amazing fans who keep us smiling all week long. Closing things out is a moving song deep dive by Tee featuring 'Downstairs' from the album Breach.

This one is a good one, Frens, and we're so happy you're here for it! We love all our fans and we are so excited to continue bringing this content to you every week. Keep the comments coming and the good vibes flowing, and thank YOU for being such loyal pals. We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Turn the volume up...can you hear that? Maybe a little louder...can you hear it now???

probably not because we have officially entered Ordinary Time! That's right, the tour is over, Breach talk has slowed to a crawl, the boys have gone radio silence on socials, and we are here left wondering what the heck is going on!

It's like part of our family has left and it's hard, Frens. But we are here for you and each other. Don't be sad, let's keep the good twenty one pilots vibes going with some light and entertaining talk about our favorite band.

This ep we get into some R&R HOF updates (we were right...again...) and breakdown how pumped we are for a White Stripes cover performance, Debby's Jebbyween post of her and Josh is just trolling us now, our thoughts on why Breach achieved such high praise and popularity, and closing things out is part 3 of the dmaorg.info lore deep dive.

Thank you so much for listening and telling your friends about our little slice of the TOP universe. We sure are grateful, and we need each other now more than ever. Let's stick together and keep this train moving! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

Happy Clique-a-ween (you'll find out later in the episode why this is funny)! We bring you this action-packed episode fresh off the plane from Southern California where we took a whirlwind weekend to see the final show of The Clancy Tour: Breach in Los Angeles.

What a great time we had back in our home state, complete with some California-only food that we have missed, a trip to Disneyland where the magic began 20 years ago for your hosts, 'Tear in My Heart' video sites, and of course THE best show of the tour!

Lots of tears were shed, screaming was had, and the third-ever live performance of 'Downstairs' had us weak with gratitude for this amazing band and community. We recap all of it for you on this episode where we skip the lore and song deep-dives to bring you our very fresh takes on all things twenty one pilots, Breach, and what may be next for the boys. We also tease the latest clique conspiracy surfacing about the missing/stolen 'Level of Concern' thumb drive!

Thank you so much for listening to us and following along. It really means the world to us. We don't have many real friends thanks to good ol' anxiety and social awkwardness, but we have connected with so many from this community and it's really just a beautiful thing that heals our souls. We love you all and can't wait to keep doing this for a long time!

For now, we are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!

We don't mind if it's lonely, we don't mind if it's fair, we have a new episode you can play anywhere! That's right, Clique Nation, we are back with another action-packed episode to bless your earholes and we hope you like it!

This week we get into our festival predictions, the fans getting a little too touchy at recent shows, Tyler's obvious sass, and the recent criticism that Breach is "rushed and under developed (what?!). We also share some 2025 Rock & Roll Hall of Fame potential performance predictions, who the heck is "her" in the lyrics 'I wish her parents would stop yelling,' and so so much more!

Closing things out is a thoughtful deep dive broken down four ways on Clancy favorite 'Backslide.' This song is so great and has SO many layers. Let us know if we got it right in the comments on our social @cliquebait_pod on all major socials.

As usual, we thank you so much for making this fun to do! Keep on listening and sharing with your friends, we sure appreciate it! We are Clique Bait and so are you, stay alive, Frens!
