    As a fellow pop punk dad, I have little time to consume podcasts but this is one of the few I listen to weekly. Steve and Chris have such a great repoire, know their music, and bring in the coolest of guests!

  • Wow

    There is so much I could and want to say about this podcast, but as a fellow dad (3 young daughters aged 3-7) I know we don’t have that kind of time! All I can say is Wow! I found this podcast about 3 weeks ago and have listened to it non-stop, starting back at episode one. As someone who came of age during the late 90’s/early 2000s, a podcast about the best genre of music from a Dads perspective is so awesome! The two hosts (Wingman Steve and Chris-183) are great phenomenal and know how to make... more

  • Fun! Smart! Dads!

    This isn’t kids talking about pop punk—it’s your best friends who never stopped listening to the best music of the late 90s/2000s and they’re right there with you in the mosh pit (or, well, in the seats, because we’re too old for that). Enjoyable and engaging in a variety of levels with new themes to mix things up. Definitely worth a listen!!

  • Like a Cliff Notes booklet of my Soundtrack

    Found these guys during their Drive Thru Summer. Being from rural Georgia I’ve never really had anyone to talk to about Drive Thru, who basically released the soundtrack to my high school and college years. Love every episode so far.

  • Great find

    I love good pop punk discussion. Looking forward to new episodes for sure.

    Also, in the “hear you me” episode, you’re thinking of I will possess your heart by Deathcab 🖤
