This is a special month for us at The Pod Punk Show because it’s… SKA’tober!! (Aaron’s idea but © John Brian, 2017).
It’s time to welcome in the crisp Fall weather, hang up your girl pants and then cheer up emo kid (pick it up! pick it up!). This episode Aaron & John Brian use Reel Big Fish and their album, “Turn the Radio Off” as fodder to pay tribute hands down one of the best sub-genre’s in all of music... Ska. So close your eyes and allow the trombones, trumpets and rude boys to skank into your inner sanctum.
Also, the boys break a potentially mind-bending theory involving Love and death. If this turns out to be true... it changes everything. You need to hear it. And of course, our pulitzer prize winner and resident French Bulldog, Bronx gives a shocking exposè on the differences between ducks, geese and why it matters.

www.podpunkshow.comThis week Aaron and John focus on Long Island's, Brand New, and their unexpected 5th full-length, "Science Fiction". They go over why this band is not just another staple of the 2000's pop punk/emo music scene. The well-received, Science Fiction (2017), securing a number one spot on the "Billboard's Top 200 Chart" and the overall feel and direction of, what could be, the band's final release.
Also, the boys trade stories over the candy warheads, talk Bruno Mars, Kevin Smith, and try to understand the enigma that is... Nick Cage. Finally - Bronx, the show's resident French Bulldog, surprises everyone with a well thought out segment on what neighborhoods really mean when they post a "Curb Your Dog" sign.
All of that and more on this week's episode of The Pod Punk Show!

This week Aaron & John use Underøath and their mega-breakout hit album, "They're Only Chasing Safety" as fodder for their soapboxes. We cover the Christian Hardcore scene, the explosion of their album, & how successful this band was with their amazing chart-topping feat with the legendary billboard top 100 chart.
They also answer the age-old question, "How many charismatic believers does it take to front a metal-core band?". And finally, our show's producer Bronx weighs in with his thoughts on the latest trends in Poodle cosmopolitan living and the large coastal elitist cities they reside in.

This week Aaron Haag and John Brian travel back to 1994 and discuss just how pivotal The Offspring's album Smash was to Punk Rock, Grunge and Pop Punk. We lay out how the success of this album touched every band from Blink 182 to Rancid, from Bad Religion to Fall Out Boy. From their uncanny rise and bitter divorce from Epitaph Records, their story is anything but dull.
