Episode 4: When we were young and impressionable - bands we got boob to & music that made us who we are

2023-05-02

In this episode, the boys finally determine if Metallica’s St. Anger is the best album of all time across the multiverse or just basically the best music that the human race can deliver in this current timeline. Hint: Yes. Who touched their first boob listening to Dave Matthews Band? Third Eye Blind? Who touched their first boob listening to whatever band Mike said? You’ll have to listen to find out! Speaking of touching boobs, Jase gets turned on. But not sexually. Well, yes, sexually, but also not sex...

Who touched their first boob listening to Dave Matthews Band? Third Eye Blind? Who touched their first boob listening to whatever band Mike said? You’ll have to listen to find out! Speaking of touching boobs, Jase gets turned on. But not sexually. Well, yes, sexually, but also not sexually. It’s complicated. Sexually complicated.

Mike talks about his discovery that he's his own independent human and confesses his childhood crimes to a captive audience, against his FBI guy’s advice and is promptly detained by police. More beer for the rest of us, I say! Before he is arrested, however, he teaches us about Gibson guitars, PAF pickups, and Green Day’s pre-fame albums.

Presidential candidate Sandy Wesserson returns in hopes of garnering a few more votes: Justice for front axels! We also discuss Millard Seymour Hoffman’s critically acclaimed supporting actor role in Dred Ragon.

From pirating music to our primitive and recent musical inspirations, the guys discuss the gamut of their early musical influences. There are a lot of surprises, too, from Nick’s love for NWA and indie music to songs that got Jase through his deployment to Afghanistan, to Mike’s video game music history. They also discuss their musical listening habits in the age of Spotify.

Guy, I heard you talking shit about Hanson behind my back when I went to the bathroom. By the time you read this, your tires will have been slashed. Also, for some reason I’m typing this: “Straight Outta Condom: The NWA Drive-Through Experience of a Lifetime.” Idea for a film, maybe?
