Draft Punks

Happy Thanksgiving! The punks are back! Well, some of them at least. Rob and Travis are joined by former guests Ryan and Holden to talk more obscure, awesome music. This time, the focus is all on the instruments, because it's, well, an instrumental draft! We hope you enjoy the episode, and we're excited to bring you more content through December and the New Year!

Preston and Brian were joined for the newest episode of everyone's favorite trivia show by O'Dell Harmon Jr.! O'Dell has worked with Game Informer, GameSpot, Game Fanatics, and is the host of the wonderful The Full Circle Podcast. Please go check it out after you listen to this episode, where we talk about traveling to Tokyo, the many regions of Pokemon, and enjoy our wildest music round yet.

Explicit Language Warning for some of the songs featured in this episode!

This week, Rob, Brian, and Travis are joined by the wonderful Alex Roque, aka Jawarhello! This episode had a slightly modified, fun format! We each picked a band to bring to this week's draft, and picked our favorite songs. The catch was, everyone had to draft at least one song from each band! So come and join us as we talk about The Killers, Aesop Rock, Animal Collective, and Garbage! We really like this format and hope you all do too. If so, we'll do it again soon with a new batch of artists! If you'd like to leave us feedback, come join our Discord for free! There's a link in our twitter bio, @realdraftpunks!

Preston and Brian are back with the most quizzical spin-off you know! This month we're joined by Wes Bates of the Great Game Debate podcast to talk about the Simpsons, Journey, and... Rodeo?

Rob, Brian, and Travis are joined by the lovely Ozzie Seshie to talk about our favorite Animal Groups, from rats to hippos, from bats to buffalo, and the biggest shambles in the episode seems to be one pick that DIDN'T get taken, somehow.

Brian, Rob, and Travis are joined by the host of the Calm Down, Nerd podcast, Eric Smith! You can probably guess what we drafted, but AKSHUALLY, you should listen to the episode if you want to find out who we picked, and *pushes up glasses with awkward asterisk text describing actions* then come join us on Discord to let us know what we got right so we can prove you wrong.

Rob, Travis, and Brian are joined in their season 2 kickoff episode by honorary Punk Ryan Stabell, making his record 8th appearance on the show! And for this one, we're tackling an oldie but goodie from the Discord server, our favorite elements. This one goes all the way back to an in-joke from our original trailer, but we're excited to finally bring it back around to a real episode. We said we'd draft science, and we did! ... Well, kinda. If you like the episode consider joining our Discord so you can vote for your favorites and let us know what we missed. There is a link on our twitter bio @realdraftpunks!

It's season finale timeeeeee! We are so proud of all we've been able to accomplish the last year thanks to the contributions of our incredible community and server, so we took an episode to reflect on lots of our favorite, funniest, and most heartwarming moments of the last year with good friend of the show (and great sport) Preston.   At the start of the show, we make a huge announcement, which I'm so excited to talk more about, but don't want to spoil. Really, you only need to listen to the opening portion to find out! But some big changes are coming to the Discord later today!   Thank you, as always, to Alex. (new CHAMPION) for our art, Greg for our opening theme music, and Drifter for our closing jam. And thank you to all of you for an incredible first year. Next week kicks off season 2, and we can't wait for what else it brings, from new friends, to new events, to new fun shows.
