Latest Episodes:

Ep040 - Leaving Through The Window by Something Corporate Nov 04, 2021

Show notes

We're all in on Something Corporate's piano-driven pop/rock/punk vibes (and basically everything Andrew McMahon has done since). Although, for some weird reason, Kyle had never listened to this album before! But he's with us, now.

Ep039 - A Fever You Can't Sweat Out by Panic! At The Disco Oct 22, 2021

Show notes

Despite the debut from Panic! selling over 2 million copies, the guys are not as impressed with it as you'd think. They think th $11k budget and 18 year old band members makes more sense as a measuring stick for the quality than the 2 million albums sold. Please don't hate us, Panic! fans!

Ep038 - White Crosses by Against Me! Sep 28, 2021

Show notes

Against Me!'s 2010 album was a departure from previous album styles, but that didn't stop 2/3 of the guys hosting this podcast from loving it. The other 1/3 is Blake, and he just honestly had never listened to the band before. Fresh ears!

Ep037 - Paper Walls by Yellowcard Sep 14, 2021

Show notes

While Yellowcard admittedly had a slight downturn post Ocean Avenue with their 2006 album Lights and Sounds, they were back to being one of the best pop-punk bands of the 2000s with the quick follow up, Paper Walls. It's one of Blake's all time favorites, and his wife has zero interest in it. It's a real tragedy.

Ep036 - Warning by Green Day Aug 31, 2021

Show notes

"Warning?", you say, confused. YES. We think this 2000 Green Day album is the catalyst for the follow up success of American Idiot. Full stop. We love everything about this album, despite it being a commercial disappoinment for the band at the time.

Ep035 - In Keeping Secrets of Silent Earth:3 by Coheed and Cambria Aug 18, 2021

Show notes

Despite 2/3 of the guys not being huge Coheed & Cambria fans, we still manage to all have lots of opinions about this record. Siri even chimes in at one point to tell us how she feels about the record.

Ep034 - Pinkerton by Weezer Jul 20, 2021

Show notes

Clocking in at our longest episode thus far, we talk about what is now regarded as Weezer's 1996 masterpiece (though it was basically hated by everyone at the time) and its contribution to the genres of the 2000s.

Ep033 - Phantoms by Acceptance Jul 06, 2021

Show notes

We really thought Acceptance was going to be HUGE back in the day. Unfortunately, they had a ton of bad luck. This album is great, anyway

Ep032 - OK Go's self titled Jun 22, 2021

Show notes

It's our podcast and we'll slightly weave outside the genre if we want to! Look, if you haven't listened to this highly underrated album (because it came out before all the crazy one-take music videos), please do so and then listen to us talk about how much we love it.

Ep031 - Beneath Medicine Tree by Copeland Jun 08, 2021

Show notes

Kyle brings fresh ears to a conversation about Copeland's 2003 debut album since he never really listened to it back in the day. Blake reveals where he stole the podcast's theme song from. Kris has a righteous mustache you can't see because it's a podcast.
