Tyler rides solo for this week's episode, but continues with the Spooky Season theme. And what better way to continue it than by talking about the band that brings the spooky vibes: My Chemical Romance. Did you know My Chemical Romance recorded the highly successful ‘The Black Parade’ album in a haunted mansion called The Paramour Estate? And, apparently, they ALL had some really creepy and messed up experiences while they were there. The experiences were so messed up that it led to members of the band leaving the house well before schedule, forcing them to find a new studio to record and finish the album. Well, here's that story.Support the show

It's officially Spooky Season, so Bailey and Tyler thought it would be appropriate to discuss and explain the wild conspiracy theory that Avril Lavigne is dead and was replaced by a look-alike actress named Melissa Vandella. Crazy, right? This conspiracy has lived on since 2005 but gained a ton of traction when details came out in 2011. Listen to them explain the ins and outs of the whole theory and at the theory's conclusion, they decide whether they believe the conspiracy is true or not.Support the show

This is a special episode where we talk to fans of the music scene, get to know them a bit more as fans of music, and dive into what they do for a living.
This week, we talk to one of you, Dr. Tom, a podiatrist (foot doctor) and a fan of the scene. Dr. Tom is a supporter of the show and (full disclosure) a long-time friend of both Tyler and John, as well as Tyler's personal foot doctor. Before moving into music-related topics, the boys interview the doctor about his work by asking him all kinds of questions, from sawing off feet to the worst feet he's seen to his craziest experiences while practicing podiatry. Tommy also shares his favorite bands, best concerts, a wild concert story, the most he's paid for a single concert ticket, and what albums and tours he's looking forward to most in 2024. To wrap it up, Dr. Tom turns the tables and asks the hosts about the most embarrassing concert they've attended.Support the show

In this episode, Tyler and John discuss how artists are gaming the Billboard charts in the lamest way possible to boost rankings. They express frustration with these strategies and question the credibility of chart achievements, particularly regarding the dominance of certain artists like Sum 41, blink-182, Drake, and Taylor Swift. This conversation leads to a discussion about today's potential influence of payola and streaming manipulation. The boys then shift their focus to Spotify rolling out music videos to its platform and whether or not it should be seen as a threat to YouTube. Finally, they round out the episode by discussing one iconic artist's unenthusiastic decision to return to Spotify.
