Dave Hause is a great songwriter, singer, performer and an awesome podcast guest, especially for this show. Benny and Dave dig into their shared past, the rewards and pains of being a professional musician and Fat Mike's over-reaction to Dave's article on how punk-rock Taylor Swift was.

Listening to Donovan Woods talk is almost as good as listening to him sing. The lyrics are there! Maybe the backing track of Benny and Brad cackling at his stories isn't quite as nice as Donovan's sweet acoustic guitar but hey, it's storytime. Tim McGraw in a garbage can, check it out.

Deep thinking drummer, podcaster and renown singer/songwriter, Emil Amos joins us gets way deep with Benny. "Melt down this whole machine so people can see what's inside the Matrix." Then he tells us about how hid dad used to be sailing pals with John Oates of "Hall and". It's a very Emil episode.

Hot on the heels of finishing up his brilliant new album, Hellmode - our most popular, and represented guest of all time, singer/songwriter, music maniac, nice guy, Jeff Rosenstock! This is Jeff's 11th or 12th appearance on the show, his 4th solo episode and he is very happy to have coincidentally made episode #420. Please enjoy, we did.

The amazing and talented Jesse Malin, from July 2022 - PLEASE DONATE to Jesse's SweetRelief fund. This guy has given so much to others in need and he needs some help now himself. Please give what you can.

Dynamic hardcore frontman, Brendan Garrone of Incendiary joins us this week from Long Island to talk about the scene, local pizza, the evils of social media, and making friends with Skynet.

The amazing Chris Pierce has been "the adult in the room of punk" for a while now, as the founder of Doc Hopper, drummer in School Drugs and the "man behind the glass" in the studio, he's essential to his adopted Jersey scene and the whole scene in general. This was a fun convo.

The legendary Gentleman Jim Norton kept us going so long, he became a 2-parter! We'll just drop names for this one... Fred Schneider of the B52's, The Mighty Mighty Bosstones, Evan Dando - Madonna didn't even make the cut because the other stories were so good!
