Wait…what?! The legendary Jack “Choke” Kelly?! The guy from SLAPSHOT, Negative FX, Stars and Stripes and Last Rights?! Yeah, that guy.

Jesse from The Satire also stops by to talk about their new E. P., as well as drop a new track from them. We should have called this episode the Exclusive Episode with these track drops!

Of course the fellas have 3 amazing album reviews of SideStep, Moral Law and Loose Ends WBMD. Last by not least, Wiley starts a conversation about faith, deconstruction and throwing divisiveness in the trash which gets Mic all riled up and Stephen has to calm everyone down.

It's episode 3 of season 3 and this is an insane episode. INSANE!  Mic & Stephen have Aaron Dalbec of Be Well and you know a few other "little" bands (Bane, Converge, Only Crime). They talk about the latest Be Well single "Treadless" and the new "Hello Sun" EP. Aaron also shares about his other adventure as a coffee roaster with Essex Coffee Roasters. Up next the Boys review the Big Laugh EP "Manic Revision" as well as the upcoming LP by Subsist "The Rhythm Method".

But this episode is so insane that the boys also talk about Matt's other band band Bares His Teeth and Adam Baker (the bands singer) drops in to chat about their two singles as well as a future LP. Adam and Mic spend a few moments talking about the positive impact punk & hardcore have had on the discussion of mental health lately as well. Last but not least. the boys get back to business and review some coffee. Man - This episode is bananas! You never know you might just get an extra surprise as well. Let's Go!

It's a new episode of the Coffee and Hardcore Podcast so you know what that means. It's a sad and happy episode because it's Wiley's last show until April of 2022! He's taking maternity leave to be with his wife Libby and welcome their baby boy into the world. But have no fear because the one and only Stephen Scopa from Straight Edge for Christ is stepping in to help. He's actually jumping in on this episode to introduce himself and help Mic with our interview with Joel Otte from Worst Self. We talk about their brand new, just shy of 15 minutes, behemoth of a single "Servant of Death" and also about sobriety, fatherhood and the future of the band. Wiley jumps back in the mix and we talk about the good, the bad and the ugly of the coffee picks we have for this month. Wiley also grills Mic about the Prompt Journal he put together called Reflections. We also review 3 new albums and bid Wiley adieu as he and Libby start their new adventure. It's a jam packed episode, so buckle up buttercup. Here we go! - Don't forget the Coffee & Hardcore Setlist featuring bands and artists mentioned on this episode.
