Here is a FUN episode - the always great, Tucker Rule, drummer for Thursday, L.S. Dunes, Frank Iero and the Future Violents...  - Put two drummers together and what do you get?

Oh what a great convo we've got for you this week - Mike Olender fronted Endeavor, Disembodied, Burnt by the Sun, For The Love Of, River Black... and guess what? - more than one of those are back! Some great stories from the past but we didn't get bogged down there. He's got a lot going on today and a lot of wonderful ideas about hardcore, faith, politics and humanity. There is also the insane van-fire story from his very first tour.

Equal Vision Records is a label with awesome vision, as evidenced by the many of our recent guests who call it home. So after great talks with Quicksand, The Flatliners, Sparta, and I Am The Avalanche, to name just a few, we decided to go right to the man in charge, Label Manager Dan Sandshaw. He gets right into it, telling us how hardcore shows in his native Connecticut 'changed his worldview.' He gives us insight into a label that has had real integrity and a wonderful artist roster throughout its history. Equal Vision Records weblinks

Detroit in the house this week with Rich and Ryan, massive-dynamic rhythm section of The Suicide Machines. Snow tricks, Bourgeois Filth, drunk at Punk in Drublic... and what about being too broke to tour with the Foo Fighters? It's another off track classic.

This week we introduce a new special episode: the first, "Brain Edition with Doc & The Wizard".

Both are music lovers and rich souls with knowledge to offer. Enjoy.

Minor Threat, Bad Religion, Dag Nasty, Junkyard - there's so many more bands that Brian Baker, guitarist (and bassist) extraordinaire has started or shined in. The boy is still rocking hard and grinding out that SOUND! We're on track and off track and all over with this one. Come hear the legend.

On this day in 2020 - we had fucking MILO AUKERMAN from THE DESCENDENTS on the show! So while none of us want to go back to those lockdown days, we DO want to hear Milo again talk about science and PUNK ROCK!

Everyone loves The Bouncing Souls and who bounces more than Greg Attonito lead singer for New Jersey's most beloved punk rock band? You can bet there's some NJ in here but we go all over the place, discovering what a great athlete Greg once was and discussing how the presence and power of a song performed can become it's own entity.
