Danbert Nobacon has seen the full range of it all - from the streets of Manchester UK in the 70s to the wilds of eastern Washington state; from 80's anarchist punks to anarchist major-label, big-hit darlings in Chumbawamba. Along the way he never sold out his ideals and quite literally put his money where his mouth is. A super interesting conversation with a very real dude. Check out his new album, Kochtopus's Garden with the Axis of Dissent.

The Gaslight Anthem's FOH engineer, Tiffany Hendren on a "Road Dogs" episode that was actually taped on the road! Benny sits down with their wonderful live-mix engineer between gigs in Europe to chew the fat about what she does and how she got there.

What better time than now to revisit the mountain man himself, the honorable Chuck Ragan of Hot Water Music fame along with solo artisting and of course... mountain manning.

Drummer for The Bouncing Souls and Joan Jett, just to name a few, Michael McDermott is another Jersey treasure. From his early ska days and Murphys Law, to Budokan, the kid's got stories and he's telling! And be sure to check him out in The Kilograms with Joe Gittleman and Sammy Kay.

Hardcore NJ drummer for Ensign, P.E.D. and many more, Chris Ross has known Benny since the latter was a wee punk. We go deep into the lore of New Jersey punk & hardcore, from the magic of 67 Hardy St. and the Bouncing Souls house basement shows to The Melody & The Roxy. There are also many fun, (some embarrassing) young Benny moments.

Coliseum singer/guitarist, Louisville native, Ryan Patterson gives us the lowdown on 'zines, throwing shows and managing a record label. He talks about pushing forward to escape his small town and how "everywhere is a creative outlet". Be sure and check out his new band, Fotocrime.

Dan Andriano of Alkaline Trio joins us this week to talk mustaches and basketball. Oh yeah, he's got an awesome day-job too. We get deep into AT's new album and drummer as well as going back to those VFW gig days and the beloved Fireside Bowl, Chicago!

Senior NBA Writer for The Ringer and contributor to the NY Times, LA Daily News and Sports Illustrated, Howard Beck also knows a thing or two about music. Benny has a blast talking hoops with him and comparing basketball positions with band members.

In another, 'pal-of-the-podcast' episode, we talk to the 2nd nicest drummer in the biz, The Menzingers' own Joe Godino. Yoga with the Descendents' Bill Stevenson, muscle maintenance with Hot Water Music's George Rebelo and hangin' with Kevin from The Office. It's all in there.
