  • 70s Punk Deep Dive & Tournament (Part 2)
    ** Part 2 of 2 ** The Sex Pistols, Misfits, Clash, Ramones, Stooges, Damned, Black Flag & more... This is where it all began for punk rock, and this week I'm joined by returning guest Roman Honeycutt (Weezer episodes) and our old bandmate and dear friend Jon Hwong. We pit the top bands from this era against each other in another winner-take-all tournament; we also discuss the aesthetics and graphic design of punk rock, how our love for these bands has changed as we've gotten older, and tell some funny stories. Part 2 drops next week.

  • 80s Punk Tournament (Re-Broadcast)
    ** This is a replay of an older episode, in anticipation of the upcoming 70s Punk & Proto-Punk Tournament ** Grab a 6-pack (or don’t if you’re Straight Edge) and get in the van! Your buddy’s copy of Book Your Own Fucking Life doesn’t have too many pages stuck together, and it looks like there’s just enough gas to get to Bakersfield for tonight’s basement show. Comedian Sam Tallent joins me as we pit songs by Black Flag, Bad Brains, Descendents, Dead Kennedys, Minor Threat, Circle Jerks, and more against each other in a winner-takes-the-only-clean-towel tournament. This music has played a massive role in Sam’s life, and this conversation contains both lots of laughter and some pretty heartfelt moments. Part 2 drops next week. https://www.samtallent.com/ https://www.instagram.com/samtallent/ https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/chubby-behemoth/id1527656616 Spotify playlist for today's episode: https://open.spotify.com/playlist/0rDmujcrBIKA8mv0aFESVi?si=1db09849cc5f44f1&pt=2fe533356ef2bd50cddc301609ba1409 Dan's music licensing library: https://dankoch.net/library Email Dan: [email protected] IG: www.instagram.com/prettygoodvibespod/ Artwork: https://www.nickryanluevano.com/ Learn more about your ad choices.

  • 90s Tooth & Nail Records Tournament
    MxPx. Slick Shoes. Project 86. Plankeye. Craig's Brother. Dogwood. Starflyer 59. Chances are good that these band names either 1) mean nothing at all to you, which makes you an average American, or 2) meant EVERYTHING to you for a few years of your life and probably still mean something. The rest of you have probably heard MxPx, but maybe nobody else on this list. For my longtime friend and guest Jon Havens and I, these bands meant pretty much everything to us at one point, and although we've moved on from most of them musically (not all of them!), listening back through the 90s catalog of Seattle Christian indie record label Tooth & Nail was the perfect excuse to revisit the years of our early friendship. We were Christian rock subculture kids, spending a lot of time at Evangelical youth group and swapping discs we got at Berean or Lifeway Christian Bookstore. And how did we not talk AT ALL about using rotary phone cords as wallet chains...? Listen as we pit 16 of these artists against each other in a bracket-style tournament.

  • 70s Pop & Rock Mega Tournament (Part 3)
    **THIS IS PART 3** Ben Bishop is back! This time, we bask in the glow of the FM radio dial as we pit 70s pop and rock superstars against each other. We're talking Bowie, Zeppelin, Jackson Browne, Fleetwood Mac, Billy Joel, Elton John... Episodes will continue to come out during this hectic next year of my life, but not on a weekly basis. A '90s Tooth & Nail Records tournament has been recorded but not edited yet, and we'll see what else gets added to the queue... Thanks everyone for listening!
