  • Ep11: Turn it up to 11 (GNR, PUP, Deep Purple, KGATLW)
    The Groovy Guys take a page out of Spinal Tap's playbook and crank it all the way to 11 for this headbanging romp into albums that are best played LOUD.
    It's a deep dive into some classic heavy hitters, featuring the hard rockin', top hat wearin' downright dirty grooves of Guns N Roses Appetite for Destruction, the somehow both upbeat and downtrodden punk of Toronto band PUP's Morbid Stuff, the masterful chunky, groovy jams of Deep Purple's epic Machine Head and the incredible heavy metal homage that is King Gizzard and the Lizard Wizard's Infest the Rats Nest. 
    The hot take wheel dishes up a doozy as the Guys try to nail down the greatest riff off all time.
    Turn this one up to 11.
    1 hr 14 min
  • Ep10: Take Those Old Records Off the Shelf (CCR, Dr Dre, Wes Montgomery, Uriah Heep)
    The Groovy Guys kick off 2022 with a shout-out to a much-loved place celebrated by record collectors the world over - Not Papa Bezos’ online emporium, not Marky Mark's funky market, not even Discogs, we’re talking good ol’ fashion, bricks and mortar record stores.
    From a DJ paradise to a dank dungeon filled with 250,000 slabs of wax, the Guys share their favourite stories and memories and the albums that bring back that nostalgia, including Creedence Clearwater Revivals ‘Green River’, Dr Dre’s ‘2001’, Wes Montgomery’s ‘A Day in the Life’ and Uriah Heep’s ‘Demons and Wizards’.
    The ‘hot take’ wheel delivers its first challenge of the year… Greta Van Fleet, love them or loathe them?
    We also share some recommendations from Redditors, who share their favourite stores from around the world.

  • Ep9: Leftovers - bonus episode
    The Groovy Guys wrap up season 1 by knocking off the final items left on the hot take wheel - Rogers Waters v David Gilmour, best 90s pop song, best one-hit wonder and a popular band you can't get in to.
    45 min
  • Ep7: On the Road to the Holy Grail (The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Eminem, The Tragically Hip)

    The Groovy Guys do a deep dive into their most sought after and treasured items - their ultimate Holy Grail records, with appearances by The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Eminem and The Tragically Hip.

    They also spend far too much time chatting about 'Get Back', the incredible Beatles documentary by Peter Jackson, and are surprised to hear everyone's choices in an epic hot take which forces them to contemplate the best song of all time.

  • Ep5: Saturday Night's Alright (Kanye West, Curtis Mayfield, Rolling Stones, Dave Brubeck Quartet)

    The Groovy Guys dig deep into their collections to try and settle on the ultimate Saturday night spins. It's an ecclectic bunch of albums, featuring Kanye West's hit machine 'Graduation', Curtis Mayfield's soulful sophmore album 'Roots', a tribute to the late, great Charlie Watts through the Rolling Stones' 'Exile on Main St.' and a passionate declaration for Dave Brubeck Quartet's timeless classic 'Time Out'. Glen sets the gang the unenviable task of trying to settle on which AC/DC singer did it best - Bon Scott or Brian Johnson.

    1 hr 33 min
  • Ep4: Giggity Giggity - bonus episode
    The Groovy Guys got so excited chatting about live music in ep 3, we decided to dedicate a bonus ep to talking about some of our experiences at gigs. We spoke about our first-ever live music experiences, the last gig we went to pre-pandemic, the first we went to ones things opened up and the best and worst we've ever been to.
