Latest Episodes:

Immergasm 2: Electric Boogaloo May 22, 2018

Show notes

In which a guest returns from the far reaches of the West and the boys explore their Sordid youth.

Pt 4: Love Will Tear Us Apart May 15, 2018

Show notes

In which the 70’s come to a close, the center embraces the fringe, and 1980 begins with a terrible ending. Also…during a podcast dedicated entirely to punk, I somehow manage to mix up The Commodores and The Ohio Players and THEN confuse Afghan Wigs with Fine Young Cannibals.

Pt 3: London Calling May 08, 2018

Show notes

Oh punkity punk punk punk. PUNK! Punk-O-Rama. Punkadelica. Polka Punk. Peppa Punk. Punk Rock Girl. Punky’s Dilemma. Punk Rock T-Shirt Melting. Judy! ….is A Punk. Also…..British people. And - if I’m being totally honest - I fell asleep and woke up and now my brain’s not working in the slightest.

Pt 2: All The Young Punks (New Boots And Contracts) May 01, 2018

Show notes

In which New York City and the Bowery are still the center of the punk world but new bands are arriving every day from as far away as Cleveland and San Francisco. They’re popping up all over LA as well and it’s just the beginning because, across the pond in the UK….anarchy.

Pt 1: The Punks And The Godfathers Apr 24, 2018

Show notes

In which a basketball coach comes up to Adam after a game at The Garden to talk about Death and that changes everything. So the boys decide to spend the next month discussing it. In other words, how talking about Death and Vermont leads to talking about the birth…of punk.

40 Watt Love Gods Apr 17, 2018

Show notes

In which our heroes spend a quiet afternoon talking about old friends and bands, the ones who left and the ones we left, and the ones who just found the dreams didn’t fit them any more, and left to find new ones that did. And we keep returning to a little town on the North Oconee River where, at least for me, the left of the dial was born.

Chamber Pop, Pt. 2: Forever Changes Apr 10, 2018

Show notes

In which our heroes explore the meaning of Love, the magnificent grandeur of a Soul Man, Sam and...Dave Godowsky, a Bryter haze of British sorrow, the incredible Travelogue of Vince Mendoza and Joni Mitchell, and the marvel that is Illinois. But first...something Wonderful. (PS. Dave Godowsky’s song “Here I Am” is actually on his album ALL YOU LOVE IS NEED)

Shit Or Get Off The Chamber Pop, Pt. 1 Apr 03, 2018

Show notes

In which our heroes prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that they can speak fluently in circles for hours at time. A happy journey that begins with Belle and Sebastian winds down through a magical valley of brass and strings and other up-your-ass things before finally stumbling to the semi-chilling conclusion that a life in music is sometimes a lot like asking to have a car dropped on your nuts….plus flutes!

People Say We Monk-y Around! Mar 26, 2018

Show notes

The team-up we’ve all been waiting for! The Sunshine Boys meet the Monk of Steel! Yes, it’s Immerglück, strange visitor from another planet who came to earth with powers and abilities far beyond those off mortal men. Immerglück, who can change the course of mighty rivers, bend steel in his bare hands. And who, disguised as Clark Kent, mild-mannered reporter for a great metropolitan newspaper, fights a never ending battle for truth, justice and the American way. And now another exciting episode in the adventures of Underwater Sunshine.

A Walk Across The Rooftops Mar 20, 2018

Show notes

In which our heroes post the podcast late because Adam got caught up eating ramen and watching a Japanese movie about ramen called Tampopo which you should all immediately watch while eating ramen yourselves and forgot to write the summary until now. PS. We fixed the bootleg.
