The Throwback Podcast episodes:

June 20, 2019 FRANZ FERDINAND - Franz Ferdinand
Great band name? CHECK. Tremendous hit single? CHECK. Incredible album from start to finish that somehow, 15 years later, feels kinda forgotten and underrated? CHECK and CHECK. Buckle up babies, it's Franz Ferdinand time.

June 13, 2019 STONE TEMPLE PILOTS - Purple
Happy birthday to us- The Throwback Podcast celebrates its 2nd birthday by finally pushing play on STP's 2nd album. Twenty-five years ago this month, the DeLeo brothers and their buddy Scott dropped a hammer with Interstate Love Song, Vaseline, and that song from the old MTV News intro. Hold onto your meatplow -- it's Purple time.

May 30, 2019 WPLJ SIGNS OFF - Soft Rock Countdown
Michael Bolton, Rick Astley, and Paula Abdul may not be the first artists 90's kids think of when we talk about "the music of our youth"... but back when Mom controlled the car radio, they were. In New York, 95.5 WPLJ was the ultimate "Mom Rock" station. They played adult contemporary music and promised "the biggest hits of the 70's, 80's, and today." On May 31, PLJ is signing off for the last time. To honor the genre of music that soundtracked car rides to basketball practice and family breakfasts on Sundays, we're counting down the Top 10 Adult Contemporary Hits from the last week of May, 1991. So get out of our dreams... and into our pod.

May 23, 2019 TOM PETTY - Full Moon Fever
The night Tom Petty passed away, Dan and Bob recorded an emergency podcast to celebrate the life of one of their all-time favorite artists. Nineteen months later, they're back in the garage to give Thomas Earl Petty the proper Throwback treatment by tackling his 1989 multiplatinum selling album, Full Moon Fever. Avoid the ultimate La Reveal Magnifico by pushing play now.

May 09, 2019 MAY '97 - Top 10 Countdown
Tell us what you want, what you really really want. Well, if it's to revisit Billboard's Top 10 songs from May '97, you're in luck. Let's go back 22 years (22 years!) to the days of notoriously big rappers, barenaked ladies, and stunning singer-songwriters who may or may not shave their armpits. Get ready to rumble.

May 02, 2019 TRAVIS - The Man Who
Travis' sophomore album The Man Who turns 20 this month, which means Dan and Bob have both been gushing over Fran (their favorite singing Scotsman) for almost half their lives. Now it's time for the guys to dig into the sleepy (and sexy?) Brit-pop classic, and finally figure out what's a wonderwall anyway.

April 18, 2019 THE BILLY JOEL CHALLENGE - 10 Songs To Make Dan A Fan
Bob likes Billy Joel. Dan doesn't. Special guest Jason Zumwalt REALLY doesn't -- but that's not going to stop Bob from trying to change their minds. He's dug into the Billy Joel archives to compile a playlist of 10 tracks to sway his friends from Joel-haters to Joel-appreciators. Let's see how that goes.

April 11, 2019 NIRVANA - Nevermind
Nirvana's seminal 1991 LP has been lauded, pored over, dissected, and over-analyzed by Gen-X rock fans for over two and a half decades... so what could Dan and Bob possibly add to the conversation? Butch Vig cheap shots? 9/11 flash-forwards? Tales of middle-aged Walgreens employees procuring pornography for awkward young boys in the 90's? All of the above? We'll see. But the Patreonies voted so the Throwback Pod has answered: it's time for Nevermind.

March 28, 2019 GARDEN STATE - Soundtrack w/ Jason Zumwalt
This podcast will change your life... maybe. More likely, it'll just entertain you as Dan, Bob, and their buddy Jason revisit the soundtrack to Zach Braff's 2004 indie classic. The guys all did their homework and watched Garden State for the first time in over a decade to prepare, so they've got a lot to say. Now push play and join them in the infinite abyss.

March 21, 2019 GARBAGE - Garbage
The latest Patreon poll was total garbage, which is why it's time to dig into the 1995 LP from Wisconsin's (Wisconsin??) finest. Dan and Bob do their best not to come off like total pervs as they reminisce about an iconic 90's sex symbol... but, c'mon, when you're talking about Butch Vig what do you expect?
