    Great show with consistently good guests.

    Would be awesome to see one with Mike Lohrman from the Stitches, the dudes from the Briefs, or I know it would be super tough to track down and convince her but Ivy from the Cramps would be maybe the coolest guest ever.

    Thanks for making the show you guys

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Everlast from House Of Pain and Warporn Industries is here
Q: When you finish recording and you hear “Jump Around” for the first time, did you know right away that this was going to be the single?
The group knew it was a strong, catchy record, but did not foresee its lasting impact. Everlast recalls Danny Boy calling it the “Louie Louie of the 90s.”
Everlast from House Of Pain and Warporn Industries is here
Q: Everlast, how'd you get in a punk? Do you remember the first time you ever came across the genre?
He says his earliest exposure was hearing the Ramones, though he did not know it was punk at the time. Danny Boy later introduced him to Bad Brains and other bands, shaping his interest in punk.
Tom Stern from The Butthole Surfers Documentary and Freaked is here
Q: Was Freaked originally, it's like originally supposed to be about The Butthole Surfers, right?
Stern says the project began as a low-budget, transgressive film conceived with Alex Winter as a Butthole Surfers vehicle. After the original script was rejected, it was rewritten, though Gibby Haynes appeared and the band contributed music.
Tom Stern from The Butthole Surfers Documentary and Freaked is here
Q: Tom, how did you get in a punk? Do you remember the first time you ever came across it?
Stern grew up listening to the Beatles and Wings, then discovered the Ramones and became interested in punk and related bands including Elvis Costello, Talking Heads, and Gang of Four.
Jules Massey from Side By Side and Alone In A Crowd is here
Q: Was Side By Side ever like a Youth Crew band? Do you consider it a straight edge band at any point?
Massey says straight edge was part of the band's early identity, but they resisted being pigeonholed and wanted the band to encompass more than straight-edge songs or a single scene label.
