- Best music podcast out there
I never listen to 2+ hours podcasts, but I rarely miss a Hardlore episode. I just recently got back into hardcore after mostly listening to metal for 20 years, and I feel like Colin and Bo are the best source of info to get me up to speed. As a nerd, I also LOVE how silly and geeky this show gets with its guests, and how vulnerable Colin seems to be with his guests and with listeners especially after Bo's passing. A special shout-out to the recent episode where Colin and Brody King did a walking... more

I just realized after years of listening i never left a review. I drive everyday all day for work and there are a handful of podcasts that i listen too, all tho we have never met in person i feel as tho you two are real friends of mine. The news of Bo’s passing has absolutely broken my heart and everyone in the Hard Lore camp has my condolences. I love you all very much, Straight Edge Pride!

One of my favorite podcasts, if not my favorite, that I listen to. Colin & Bo have a passion for hardcore music that shines through in each & every episode & interview they produce. Neurodivergent (endearing) levels of hardcore punk music knowledge, which is something I'm positive they've heard before, and stories that will leave you in tears of joy or otherwise. They've introduced me to music which has changed my life. Their interviews are incredibly thorough as well, you won't be disappointed ... more
