This week, we welcome listener, weekly socials commenter, and all-around cool mother scratcher: Jeremy Patterson to the show for a round of our very special game called, “WILD CARD”! Robert and Jeremy go head-to-head in a very close game of: guess the band being played. Of course, we have the amazing InObscuria banner of logos as a visual aid for the players! You’ll notice a lot of double-point bands from our “Aussie” category this go round as well. Pour yourself a cup of Toka-Cola, and play along…

What is it that we do here at InObscuria? Besides conducting ridiculous game shows, we exhume obscure Rock n' Punk n' Metal in one of 3 categories: the Lost, the Forgotten, or the Should Have Beens. In this episode, we take a listen to all 3, as we let our contestants pick a randomly obscure song by the decade in which it was released from a creatively curated playlist. We’re so honored to have Jeremy join us, especially after all that smack-talking he did about being able to best our Aussie buddy Craig Elvin back on his game episode (ep. 226)! Can he back up his boasts? Find out!
