Radio Toilet ov Hell

This week we're talking about the shifts in culture and the musical economy that have brought us to these dire straits. First up: Nuking your successful band to make money off aggrieved uncles. Tommy Vext got kicked out of Bad Wolves and now he's making more dough than ever. Next up: Onstage nü metal breakdowns from one of Jordo's favorites and Christian metal meltdown over the dreaded pussy word. Next: Joe pulls a Chris Jericho by getting mad at the Grammys despite never, ever giving a shit about nor watching the Grammys. GWAR is selling fake drugs instead of huge crack rocks, SAD! We're looking at statements from Spotify CEO Daniel Ek promoting new revenue projections for artists and comparing it with the FUCKING BRUTAL reality of artist payouts using math. Finally, we're reconsidering flat Earth with Stephen Carpenter using science. Don't forget: NEXT WEDNESDAY IS EPISODE 300 SO GET YOUR CALLS IN NOW.

Our dark powers of prediction have once again come true. Psychosexual is back and they're just gonna pretend that first record didn't happen. Huh. Join us for a spirited discussion of this, a killer story of a Houston punk band that became the #1 enemy of the police in the early 80s, a memorial for LG Petrov, pulling out the AV cart in high school, and a chat about British "people" featuring Sharon Osbourne.

Joe's back and he's ready to party. On this week's sode your boys are talking about the total destruction of Texas, how Chris Adler got his groove back, the eternal zombification of Motley Crue, a dramatic reading of n anti-vax "cancel culture" themed hardcore band that can't sell more than 2 digital downloads, and THE MORTIS NEWS NETWORK. Ol Nergie is back. When we last left him he was selling $25 tickets for a livestream performance in a church (OOOOOH) and lying about being kicked out of a YMCA. Now he needs your money. Sure thing, Nergie. Finally, we're talking about my enemy, and your, LiveNation. Nothing can kill Ticketmaster.

Once again we are finding ourselves in a sad state of No Joe. We assure you he is alive and well, but in his stead, you're once again getting these jams kicked out courtesy of Microphone Mosh Masters, 365 Days Of Horror and Breno. We discuss Mortiis posting relevant news items on his Facebook, Atilla getting sued over sucker punching venue staff, Metallica getting their live stream dubbed over because of rules they started in the first place, and how the internet lost its once lawless, wild west charm. You could listen to a different podcast if you want to, but you're here already here, so you might as well enjoy this one.   Don’t forget to rate, review, and subscribe to Toilet Radio on iTunes so you’ll get new episodes automatically. Or use Stitcher if you don’t fuck with Apple.

Breno and 365 are doing the thing sans Joe this week, as Thrashnkill deals with the ThrashnChills of the current Texas winter woes. We're discussing what bands you need to mention by name on social media without doing much of anything else to get numbers. We talk about metalheads their unique proclivity to listen to the same exact shit forever. Of course there's more Iced Earth news that we have to get into as a couple members of the band finally bow out. Also, does a major metal publication utilize bot farms to spread content? We confirm it as a maybe. Listen to this episode and I promise you're going to hear it.

A few things happened in 2020—things that may have taken precedence over scouring the innernette for new black metal (and the subsequent obligatory slog through Metal-archives to search for the "dark heathenism" tag). This week, Rolderathis and Hans have the recap on some whipsaqq BM tracks from yesteryear that may not have been covered on this here water closet. We play new (olde??) music from Montuln, Svrm, Katavasia, Porenut, Fortið and Vital Spirit, as well as [being new at podcasting noises], signing Greek BM petitions, ornamental folk metal instruments, Assassin's Creed jank and a cat named Adam screwing with our production. Big ol' P.S.: Thanks to Lacertilian and Leif Bearikson for the rough format idea and the solid chunk of 'sodes they made under the Riff-Raff name. We'd like to open up the format to any contributor duos who'd like to try it out, but we'll keep the spot warm if y'all get the itch to record again. <3 2020 Music Featured This Week: (intro) Jars - 'Mr. Visionary' from ДЖРС III Montuln – ‘Arquetipo’ from Arquetipo Svrm – ‘Розпад’ from Розпад Katavasia – ‘Hordes of Oblivion’ from Magnus Venator Porenut – ‘Manifest’ from Postnihilera Fortið - 'Insignificant is the Wormking's Throne' from World Serpent Vital Spirit - 'Face of the Suon' from In The Faith That Looks Through Death

It took 290 episodes but we finally did a Good One. Join Breno, Jordo, and Joe as we scour the depths of Cameo to determine the best way to deepen our parasocial relationships with Celebs - They’re just like us! We check out some of our favorite metal musicians, voice actors, and hideously washed up 90s movie stars. If you've got between $20 and $500 we've got a confused, slurring Cameo for you. If there was ever an episode to tune in to, this is the one.

On this week's show we offer a preview of JOEY DEMAIO'S WORDS OF POWER podcast, we do a little ONLINE GAMBLING and take a few lessons from Trading Places, we ask the real question this week: why isn't Creed playing the Super Bowl halftime show???, metal dudes whining about being on the road in a time when they can't get on the road (feat. Randy Blythe punched in the nose), getting a rare COVID variant at a Toby Keith show, we reflect on the Dead Kennedy's praise of Senate Republicans, and we have BIG QUESTIONS about Nightwish bassist Marko "Marco" Hietala leaving the band citing concerns about the Saudis (?) and also probably John Finberg. Boy this is a strange one.

This week your boys decide they need new names, so please welcome Brenocide, Joe Thrasnkool, and uhhhh... 365 Days of Horror. Breno remembers Alexi Laiho (1979-2020) and music that impacted us in high school. We're delving into the punk rock donut shop union busting going on by former Drive Like Jehu drummer and punk producer Mark Trombino. Not very punk rock! Joe tracked down an old external hard drive and we're talking about the CANCELLED MySpace-era shit we used to listen to that is thankfully lost to the sands of time, old MP3 players increasing in value, and other Old Ways in Music. Finally, we're talking about Jon Schaffer getting arrested and speculating WILDLY on what will happen next (with a musical contribution). It's a good one.

Joe and Jordo hop on the mic this week to talk all kinds of shit: Tommy Vext got kicked outta his band and got rewarded with $118,000. We're, uh, being censored too? Psychosexual appears to have been cleansed from the internet. What comes next will surely be worse! The guy from FFDP deleted all his tweets, the smartest thing he's done in a quite a while. BLAST FROM THE PAST: That guy from King 810 was briefly relevant again when he showed up in a vintage Pelle Pelle jacket to storm the capitol. Weird! We're also talking about contradictory feels when it comes to death metal and Joe threatening to record a bad album. Overall, pretty good episode IMHO.

We tried to do a fun, silly show last week and then a bunch of jetski dealers stormed the capitol and killed a cop. So much for keeping it light in 2k21. This week we’re talking about Jon Schaeffer (and to a much, much lesser extent Michale Graves) and the bizarre, ahistorical petit bourgeois riot in DC. We’re also talking about the end of Tommy Vext (rest in piss) and reflections upon Jose Mangin, a man that brings us together with our collective hatred. Boy is this a show, folks.

New year, new show! This week your boys are talking mad shit on a lesser podcast hosted by some rich limeys, Fleshgod Apocalypse covering Blue (Da Ba Dee Ba Ba Dah) and the rich vein of 90s german technopop we're hoping gets covered next, and Danzig finding love in a hopeless place (the set of Verotika). It actually seems very sweet! Good on the happy couple. Finally, we're trying to find the origin of a 33-year old power metal demo that has mystified everyone and discussing our white whales of songs that don't exist on the internet. It's a very good one!

Happy New Years, folks. We're talking about all kinds of shit on this one. First up, New Years Eve! Will you be wearing an adult diaper in Times Square this year? Tim Lambesis went and set his dumbass body on fire with gasoline: maybe the year wasn't all that bad! Tommy Vext: He sucks! Inside baseball: Pulling back the curtain on the magic of metal blogging! Lambgoat tells us all what it takes to make a dollar after 20 years in this industry. Not great! Finally, we hit you all with our metal predictions for 2021. It's a good un folks.

It’s Christmastime. Your boys are bullshitting about the various complications this particular holiday in a year of plague. Joe and Breno are hypocrites but at least Breno got his wife a tarantula. We’re talking about crimbo movies that are actually pretty fucking siqqqq, people in countries that aren’t the US that listen to us for some reason, metal Xmas records pt. VIII, Do They Know It’s Christmas?, feeling totally unruffled by bad metal opinions, and a desperate need to see the shittiest local show we can imagine. Then we open some mf presents. Jordan always gets us the nicest shit. God we love Jordan. And we love you. I hope that you’re able to find some joy in this joyless time.

If you've been listening to the show for a while you know what this is. It's time to count down the 20 most popular metal tracks of 2020, each with at least 2 million views on YouTube. As far as we can tell, this is the most accurate system for understanding what your cousin listens to when he hangs out at the muffler shop on a Saturday night. Quit swimming around in the underground and take a deep dive into the mainstream with us on this week's show. You'll laugh, you'll cry, and you'll definitely want to argue with us on some of these selections. It's a good 'un!

We’re doing the whole year-end business right now. On this week’s episode of Toilet Radio your Toilet Boyz are choosing their favorite tracks of this miserable fucking year. Also, I guess we’re telling jokes and such in between. We got good jokes and pretty good songs so, overall, pretty above-par episode if you ask me. Tune in and lemme know which of these tracks you jammed on, which tracks you hated, and then rank each host on their respective qualities in the comments below.

Hot damn! This episode features the return of your Toilet Boyz to discuss the Thanksgiving, Black Friday, and Xmas amid pandemic. The nominees for Grammy best metal performance dropped so you know we gotta discuss our predictions for the eventual winner. We're also talking about the career arc of Diamond Head. But we're just three clueless assholes born in the late 80s so our boy IAN steps in at the 30 minute mark to interview Brian Tatler of Diamond Head! The guitarist and founding member of Diamond Head talks about the re-recording of Lightning to the Nations including their cover of Metallica's No Remorse. (If you're too young to understand, Metallica owes a bit of their early success to Diamond Head). The two talk about the original recording, DIY'ing in 1980, and the evolution of the band's style as they tried to make sense of a senseless industry. Brian talks about the band's late-career surge and DIY'ing here in 2020. It's a delightful interview and you all ought to tune in right now.

You might know Bobby Jarzombek as the virtuoso behind the drum kit with Riot. Or Fates Warning. Or Arch/Mattheos. Or Sebastian Bach. Or Halford. Or, hell, maybe you've seen him at a South Texas dance hall playing with The Texas Jamm Band alongside George Strait's Ace in the Hole Band players. Bobby has been around the block. This week Ian, the fourth mic of the Toilet ov Hell podcast, stepped in to interview Bobby about his insights on playing drums across four decades, how styles and technology change, compartmentalizing his playing approach through genres. I gotta tell ya, it's an absolute joy to hear a metal mainstay like Bobby talk about his experiences playing country music when he's not on the road. It's also a sadly unsurprising to hear that some of his fans don't like country music! Ian gets Bobby to talk about his experiences as a young gun with Juggernaut partly as a response to his brother playing with S.A. Slayer. You'll hear how Bobby's PAINSTAKINGLY recorded a MIDI drum pack at Sound City, the nuances of cymbals, and a tale of his dogs catching a squirrel while doing the interview. RIP squirrel. I hope you enjoy listening to this episode half as much as I did. Fates Warning's latest album, Long Day Good Night is out right now. Get it here.  Music featured on this show: Juggernaut – Burn Tonight Don’t forget to rate, review, and subscribe to Toilet Radio on iTunes so you’ll get new episodes automatically. Or use Stitcher if you don’t fuck with Apple.

Folks, we've got a very different show for you today. Our resident old school scholar Ian stepped in to interview the Queen of Heavy Metal, Doro Pesch! We're keeping it brief - all killer, no filler. Ian and Doro discuss playing drive-in shows and headbanging cars, uptight 80s parents, recording with Warlock vs recording albums now, and... wait for it... Dungeons and Dragons. It is a genuine joy to hear Doro's incredible energy as she shares her tales from a lifetime in heavy metal. Big ol thank you's to Ian and Doro for putting this one together. It's a good one. You can get Doro's latest record, Forever Warriors, Warriors United over at Nuclear Blast. On November 13th, 2020, Doro released her long-awaited best-of album Magic Diamonds - Best Of Rock, Ballads & Rare Treasures through her own label Rare Diamonds Productions. Featuring 56 songs on three CDs, the album features an all-around impressive showcase that spans four decades of Doro music, and with 20 rock songs, 18 ballads, and 18 rare treasures, and more.

The election’s over and lord willing you won’t ever have to think about it again. To commemorate the event, let’s remember some musicians that threw their whole careers into a bottomless pit by tying their brand to a loser like Donald Trump. We’re also talking about System of a Down, my total inability to understand global conflicts, and a Hampton Institute take down of heavy metal millionaires pretending to be working class guys just like you and me. Finally, we get to have a fun chat about Season of Mist and how criticizing their French asses is CANCEL CULTURE. It’s a fun one. Come have fun with us.

Happy Wednesday folks. As of 9 AM today no one knows anything, same as it was when we recorded this show last Sunday with our predictions for today. We wrapped up the Halloween Spooktacular last week and the entire time we were enjoying those sweet, sweet horror movies there were two stories tucked in our minds that we were aching to talk about. First up: the quest to crowdfund $33K to restore Vinnie Paul’s piece of shit limo. We got a little heated on this topic so I would like to remind you that this show is a work of parody and is not actionable. Then: we discussed the full fash transition of Five Finger Death Punch. Again, nothing within this week’s show is actionable. There’s a lotta laffs on this one and absolutely nothing that any one of us could ever get in trouble for. It’s a good ‘un.

On this, the final non-Patreon episode of the Halloween Spooktacular, I'm joined by Will Jameson (ex-Redbait, current Barren Branches, Wretched Empires) and Forest Bohrer of Adzes to talk about the pair's extremely dope Tom Petty cover. Oh and we're talking an extremely dank 2018 Indonesian horror movie called May the Devil Take You. If you'd like to get caught up before joining us, the movie is streaming on Netflix. For the rest of you, tune in and hear us talk about a full-on Sam Raimi-worshipping, blood-vomiting, fingernail-ripping, jump scaring, rooting AND tooting horror film. We're talking about the rules of making a deal with the devil, when to get out the dang house, and what we think Chekov's Gun is. Bonus: If you dig this movie, the sequel is out THIS WEEK.

We're watching a surprisingly stylish 80's flick stuck firmly in the 70s. This week, it's mob-money-laundered 1983 possession horror gem Mausoleum! We're joined by Real Queen of Horror, Zena Dixon, host of the Bloody Disgusting Podcast to talk the swarthy perverts, stylish yuppies, and head-exploding practical effects of Mausoleum. In addition to the gooey details, we discuss Marjoe Gortner, a formerly-4-year-old Pentecostal preacher who left his churchy ways to star in weird shit like Mausoleum. Also: LaWanda Page, extremely blue comic and Sanford and Son actress who has a scene-stealing performance in this movie. It's a good one, folks.

Making his triumphant hat trick appearance, The Black Dahlia Murder's Trevor Strnad made us watch a depraved Italian flick for our continuing Halloween Spooktacular. Beyond the Darkness (a.k.a Buio Omega) is a Goblin-scored 1979 horror movie that, to quote Trevor, "Sucks!" That's ok, we're gonna keep watching garbage anyway. Join us as we talk nonsense plot points, unnecessary gore scenes, and plot points involving embalming that leave us all perplexed. Additionally, we talk about knuckledragging death metal, his band's changing production ethos, and a mom hiring him on Cameo to scold a bad son. It's a good one, folks. Btw, Trevor's gaming Twitch stream will return soon. Follow him on Twitter to see get the latest. Next week: We've got a very special episode for you. Wanna be prepared?

Welcome to the first show of our star-spangled Halloween Spooktacular. We're joined by Doktor Ross Sewage of Exhumed to talk about dead presidents, G.I. Joe, Ghoul artwork, and Frankenstein's Army. This week we all watched the 2013 found-footage horror film Frankenstein's Army and were honestly blown away by a movie NONE of us were excited to watch. It's on Shudder right now so if you haven't seen it yet, I highly recommend going and watching that shit right now, then come back and hear us break it down. Ross fills us in with the making-of details as we talk about a doomed Soviet battalion investigating a mysterious distress signal from the coolest abandoned mine in the Czech Republic. I cannot stress this enough: Watch this movie. In addition to being chock-filled with insane practical effects and buckets of goo, it presents a more accurate depiction of WWII than your average film. It's a GWAR stage show come to live in video game form. I loved this movie and you will too. Get the Ghoul comic book here, and find Exhumed hot sauce here. NEXT WEEK: We're joined by Trevor from TBDM for his triumphant third show to talk about Beyond the Darkness (A.K.A. Buio Omega) which is available on YouTube right now.

This week your boys discussed the new Deftones album and all the strange events of American youth culture that led us to this point. We're getting into he TRL wars of the late 90s, the endless desire for a 7-string guitar, and the cultural battle over the name Nü. It all leads us to the standard bearers for modern nü metal, Five Finger Death Punch, and the modern fascist mindset. Zoltan Bathory suggests that the only reason you're alive today is because your ancestors committed acts of incredible violence. We... disagree. And in even-older person news, we're checking out Van Morrison's COVID anthem and how it all connects to shadowy government plots to promote terrible music. Also, we agree with an Ozzy conspiracy.

This is kind of a strange one but I'm feeling kinda strange so maybe it works. We lost a legend yesterday with Riley Gale's untimely death. Unfortunately, we recorded this episode before his passing so this episode is mostly things we find amusing. On next week's episode we'll pay proper tribute. For this week, we're talking about: Sturgis Rally 2020: UPDATES / Being Jesus Aged / Limp Bizkit: Origins / Every band was a boy band in the 90s-2000s.

This week your boys are examining the superspreader event of the summer: Sturgis Motorcycle Rally 2020. We’re looking at a cavalcade of washed up has-beens, never-beens, and fuckin’ Fozzy. Eat shit, Chris Jericho. We’re also in stitches with the Satanic Warmaster furry’s plea for social justice in the wake of Metal Archives accurately describing his label as “NSBM”. Finally, UADA wrote a novel about radical centrism and it is exhausting. Tune in for the laffs, stay for the graphic descriptions of bikers swinging in piles of their own sick.

Your three main boys are taking the week off from our dumb bullshit. Instead, you get to listen to a damn fine interview with Portuguese heavyweights Moonspell! Toilet ov Hell reporter Ian stepped in to talk with Moonspell vocalist Fernando Ribeiro on the occasion of the re-release of their 1999 hit record The Butterfly Effect. The two discuss the effect of COVID on the band and taking some time to reflect on the things that really matter in life. They're also talking maintaining a degree of privacy in a world of endless streaming possibilities, focusing on writing the best record they can, the rationale for releasing older material for younger audiences, Y2K, and recording in the early days vs. recording with a digital setup. Fernando takes us through the band's live setup and the decisions they make regarding props, sets, and all the outlandish live production that goes into putting on a professional metal show. This is a damn fine interview and we hope you dig it! Music featured on this ‘sode: Moonspell – Angelizer Have something you wanna say to us?

Our buddy Stockhausen plays bass in OKC metal band Dischordia. He's also a public school teacher. He joins us today to talk about the wild ass shit our nation's teachers are facing as school resumes in a couple of weeks. Underfunded schools, hungry kids, a deadly pandemic, and a federal government dead set on killing public education. But it's not all doom n' gloom. We're also talking about beer in Oklahoma, nu metal bands writing diss tracks, terrible advice from shady industry people, joining the Demon Hunter street team, touring against conventional wisdom, Linkin Park wasting a ton of money in the studio, new Dischordia material, using non-metal instruments to write metal, and getting a PhD in noise music. FOLKS, it's a good one. Check out Dischordia here. They got new music coming soon. Music featured on this ‘sode: Pyrrhon – Human Capital Have something you wanna say to us?

We're talking about failing car inspections, Godsmack's Sully Erna being a normal Boston guy and a discussion on the halcyon early days of the Iraq war, Iced Earth's Jon Schaffer and the COVID-19 HOAX (feat. the endless InfoWars menace on Austin), Great White trying to one-up their fan kill-count in another insanely stupid stunt, missing/not missing going out to shows, figuring out your immigration score and realizing you're stuck in America, getting a PPP loan for Crotch Monster cuz Metal Blade got one, the metal we've been listening to recently, and the grim realization that all your favorite bars, restaurants, and venues just aren't gonna make it through this.

We're joined by longtime Toileteer Simon Phoenix to talk trad metal, thrash, and trashy rock n roll. Sit down for a spell because we went all over the place on this episode. From a discussion on the finer points of trad, we ended up talking about our favorite forgotten UPN shows, people being mean as fuck to customer service workers FOR NO GODDAMN REASON, Kirk Cameron, and racist ass cops. There's a lotta good music and a lotta good talkin'. In other words, It's a Good One.

We saw all the other Toileteers stepping up to share their recs for Bandcamp Day and we got mad jelly. This week's episode is focused on some of our picks for Bandcamp releases from 2020 that we think you oughta give a listen to and possibly purchase this Friday. We're also talking about alternative investment strategies, Spirit Halloween closing for the year, adult acne, and other things that we are very, very wrong about. The music's good tho. Listen to it!

On this week's show we wish your dad a happy belated Father's Day. Also, we're talking about a rash of revelations about predatory dudes within the WarpedTourCore scene (and the industrial scene and the modern thrash scene and academics and wrestling and politics...) Why are news outlets too chickenshit to name names? We're trying our best to figure out why dudes use their power and influence to prey on young women and how those power structures shield the perpetrators from any consequences. Then Jordan makes us examine more brilliant Tommy Vext thoughts. Ugh. Finally, Joe goes down the rabbit hole of some claims that Hendrik Möbus of Absurd has turned informant on his nazi buddies. You're in for a show, folks. Whether you like it or not. Music featured on this ‘sode: Dearth – Writhing in Cellophane Cages Have something you wanna say to us?

This week we're joined by Vic and KW of Canadian experimental doom band Vile Creature! We're talking about stuffing worms in our mouths, VHS tape collections, hockey, police violence across the globe, inspiring redneck interactions, and lactose intolerance. Sit with us for a spell and enjoy some very rare Providence, RI appreciation as well as a definitive ranking of the worst places to live. It's a good one.

Fuck yes. We got our boy from way back in the old times, J. Steve A.K.A Hessian Hunter A.K.A THE Pumpkin Baby, to join us to talk about Minneapolis. He took a break from kicking a lot of ass behind the drum kit in bands like Birth Order to practice some serious mutual aid as his community fought back against the police, the national guard, and some pretty heinous white supremacist groups. Hear Pumpkin Baby talk about the week in Minneapolis following the murder of George Floyd, the violence of the police force, and how a community comes together. We're also talkin' protest in the time of COVID, the guitarist from Disasteratti saving people from a molotov cocktail, and learning when to shut up and listen. I think it's a pretty good episode, tbh. Music featured on this 'sode: Disasteratti - Rolling Blackouts Have something you wanna say to us?

Jordan turned me on to an incredible movie. Tribute: A Rockumentary was released way back in 2001 and is available for you to watch at your leisure for free on YouTube. We follow the trials and tribulations of four tribute bands based on the original material of Judas Priest, Queen, KISS, and The Monkees. Me and the boys gave it a watch so we could discuss it in fine detail on this week's show. We're talking about refusing to give up on your dreams and/or refusing to grow up, forming parasocial relationships with musicians, a total misreading of Gene Simmons as a person, bitter jealousy of Tim "Ripper" Owens, and a literal army of Tool cover bands. IT'S A GOOD ONE. Music featured on this episode: Slip-Not – “Before I Forget” Have something you wanna say to us?

Covers! Bands like to do them! Sometimes they're good, even! But most of the time they're not. On this week's episode we're talking a dive through some notable covers from and by your favorite heavy metal bands. We're talking about recent covers from Inter Arma and Behemoth as well as some old 'uns from bands like Evergreen Terrace, Brujeria, and Metallica. (This fuckin' Suicide Silence cover of AIC's Them Bones will make you furious) We're also talkin' bout unemployment benefits, Ghost lawsuits, Shadow's Fall, pro audio grifts, Jordan's kitted out Supra, and ODD EDITORIAL CHOICES when reporting a death.

Or, the episode in which Joe succumbs to brain sickness. We're talking about: Good dogs vs bad dogs, bands making goofy quarantine music videos, the former FFDP drummer's horrible new project, Little Nicky, subscribing to Emmure's Patreon, sodas for athletes, the only good YouTube guitarist, and a lamentation our various failures. This episode's commentary is colored a bit by the recent decisions of various U.S. governors to go ahead and open up their states so we can lube up our economies with the blood of the working class SO I APOLOGIZE FOR BEING IN A BAD MOOD.

What's the DEAL with airplane food? And comedy, for that matter? We're joined by comedian Andrew Mayer to talk about stand-up and the many painful quirks of the artform. We're talkin': trying to tell jokes while failing to break a stupid world record, almost opening for Rage Against the Machine, The Scorpion King soundtrack, recording live albums, non-premium Spotify, pay-to-play schemes, shit-ass roommates and embarrassing college stories (feat. Jordan), Joe hating improv, the impossible goal of success, class solidarity among artists, and scoping eBay for vintage Bob Saget t-shirts. This one's a change of pace, but goddammit, it's a good one. Music COMEDY featured on this episode: Andrew Mayer's - Having a Nice Time available now on Spotify and iTunes. Follow Andrew on Twitter.

Now sucks. There's a plague. We didn't have those before. So for this week's show we're going ~~~back in time~~~ to remember some long-forgotten local bands that made an impression on us as young bucks. We're talking about novelty punk bands, nu metal, psychobilly, deathcore, weirdo mathcore, and much much more. Join us as we hand out our band's CD-R's outside festivals. Let's bitterly remember the Rigs of Dad uncles that ruined our playing experiences. We're going back in time to a place where label reps might appear at a show (but probably not!) and sign your friend's band instead. This is the most fun I've had on the show in forever so I assure you, it is a good one.
