What a Great Punk

Sean and Noah from Naarm based MUDRAT drop in for a chat about their hip-hop-to-punk originals, trading vapes for ping pong, DIY chaos, vacation zyns, going accidental viral, how they approach being an artist in the current state of the world, and why they’re donating royalties.

Close friend of the pod, Twitch and band, Isy, joins us on the pod today for a chat about the good old Twitch streaming days, how we all know each other, and the amazing new guitar Isy built Todd with his bare hands. We also deep dive further into our new single INSTINCT, including how we wrote it, the many stages it went through in the writing and recording process,  what the lyrics mean and why it's a special song to us. We also break the news on an upcoming live pod tour and our plans for episode 500!!! Tune in to find out more.

Todd and Frank pod this week and we talk all about our new single, INSTINCT — which is out this Wednesday! We also, of course, talk a bunch of shit and play a ridiculous new game called "Melody Popstars". Make sure you give INSTINCT a listen and check out the video! We'll be sharing and announcing everything on our socials and of course posting previews and news first on our Patreon and Discord. So if you're not signed up to either, now is the time!

Cricket and Chewy dive into wisdom teeth horror stories, the mysterious case of Ben's stolen Pokemon cards involving a skateboard-smashing thief, why we don't understand our own bodies (spoiler: uvulas are weird), and the fine art of stealing food deliveries. Plus, Bono's son makes terrible indie music and Kings of Leon used to be good.

Note: During the recording of this episode, the software we use fucked out and fucked up our audio, meaning we lost a few segments. I've edited it back together as best I can, and added some fun music. I personally reckon this episode deserves a Walkley. - Jamie

Chewy and The Cricket are back on the Patreon for a loose Sunday morning chat about Justin Bieber's stylist going full Hunter S. Thompson, cat-sitting (cat's fine), Jamie's new jeans that actually fit for the first time in years, witnessing a gnarly scooter accident in Greece as a first responder, and Chewy's foolproof party icebreaker that definitely won't backfire.
