This Is Hardcore Podcast

Episode 103 The More Things Change... On the eve of the Fool's Game Record Release show I felt like diving into the cesspool discussion of the commercial viability of hardcore presented on altpress.com. This is a short episode and more of a rant than anything. Opening Track of the Episode Fool's Game " Not Like Me" off of Trials of Life, courtesy of TakeDown Records

A Short Cast for the Holiday I had a short amount of functioning time to make a podcast before I traveled across country and back, so I got a few words in about Keystone Jam and the best Local Band Fool's Game. I hope you all have a great holiday and I look forward to future episodes due to the kindness of Bob Wilson and the rest of the group who gifted me a new laptop which will make all the podcasts come out quicker, sooner and less bullshit to them. Merry Christmas or at least hope you are alive and well Opening Track of the Episode Fool's Game " Fading Away" from their new release Trials Of Life www.instagram.com/foolsgamehc www.linktr.ee/takedownrecs

Episode 98 Mike Ryan of Missing Link. I had a great conversation with Mike who fronts that absolutely ferocious newer NYHC band Missing Link. So much of his story is rooted in the far out woods of Upstate NY that it was awesome to hear about the scene there and his story goes further. In promoting the new track for his band, I was able to connect with him and get a deeper background and hear some great stories from the road and what he experienced.
