It's therapy time for Bryan as John and Bryan get personal on this one, as talking about our dads leads into Bryan's history with drug use and ends with some extreme talk about...pole vaulting. Bryan's insistence that he could very quickly learn how to pole vault turns contentious, and we swear we find some time to talk about this album eventually. And what an album it is, exploring Papa Roach's mammoth smash "Infest", as Bryan learns that he actually quite enjoys this album after nearly two decades of just assuming he hated it. We discuss Papa Roach's general corniness as dudes as John fills Bryan in on the Wye Oak incident and we read some interviews where Jacoby Shaddix comes across as a little cloying. Luckily the album is anything but, as we both love it and fawn over the 4 indisputably great singles, the bizarre yet confessional lyrics, and how it was a perfect album for the time.

 

If you want some more great singles, you can head on over to patreon.com/thepodkast, where for $4/month, you can hear us review TWO singles and ONE full-length piece of content, every single month. I say "piece of content" because last month, we watched the Disturbed rockumentary "M.O.L." with the guys from blink-155 and it was...something. We've got over 50 episodes in the back catalogue and they're all at your fingertips with a donation, so get into it! Rock on!
