Good podcast but the one guy needs to stop with the stupid mouth noises over the music. Very, very annoying.
I have been listening to Mike and Adam for five plus years now. At the time I started, I was just diving full on back into the Warped Tour scene after a couple of years off. Most of my friends had outgrown that music style so Mike and Adam’s podcast became one of the only places where I could hear my favorite new albums and bands discussed at length.

Came for the Sleepwalkers review, cause I’m ravenous Brian Fallon junky, and am staying for the great shows and intro to great “ditties”. The “best songs of 2018 (6-1)” may be the best podcast episode ever. Love and sincerely appreciate the soul-baring discussion and connection to music, not to mention the gushing over L. and S.

The Skinny is the best place to get genuine discussions about music ranging from Metalcore/Post hardcore/Indie Rock/and so much more. Add in some great comedic timing and you have one of the best podcasts in the scene. Even if they’re on hiatus, go back and listen to the back catalogue, you won’t regret it. I think the best way to describe the host would be “Those perverts that talk about screaming music”-DSD’s Grandma. How can you not love this show.
Great show with consistent funny content and intelligent reviews.
