June 02, 2020 14. Traditional Heavy Metal - Part 1
All this month we will be talking about Traditional Heavy Metal! This episode is what we like to call "Terms and Definitions." We talk about what exactly we mean when we say "Traditional Heavy Metal" - some major components of the sound, the lyrics, the art, and the attitude of the bands that we put in this category. Especially for this episode, grab your favorite beer (or 8) and listen up!
If you disagree with us, you would like to buy a t-shirt, or (most importantly) you would like to send in your own suggestions for Traditional Heavy Metal bands for the 4th episode this month, please email us at [email protected].

May 26, 2020 13. Our Instagram Album Challenge
What's up! Lucky episode 13! Today we have decided to round out our "introductory period" by talking about the "Instagram Album Challenge" we did back in February! We were asked to post 10 albums that made particularly big impacts on us, so we thought we would do an episode about them too! We will not be linking a playlist for this episode as they are just straight albums so please pay attention for the names and titles so you can enjoy them too! Grab a drink and listen up!
As always, please like, subscribe, rate, and review so you know when we release episodes and to help us out!
