We’re back. Episode 52 marks the reunion of Cecil, Gordo, Huff, and Mauro, and we’re diving face-first into the pit with 20 punk songs that shaped us, scarred us, or at least pissed someone off.

Each of us brought five tracks—from classics like the Dead Kennedys and Misfits, to deep cuts from Swingin’ Utters, face to face, and even a Butthole Surfers pick Mauro has to defend (and yes, he will).

There’s yelling. There’s swearing. There’s nostalgia. And there’s the kind of playlist that makes you want to dig out your old plaid pants and jump in a mosh pit. Punk’s not dead—it’s just been waiting for us to get our shit together and hit record again.
