Podioslave Podcast

Episode 72 is all about Nu Metal! What better way to celebrate the genre than to bring back the wheel! This time around we brought a few friends with us — Aaron, KC, and Dan from The Itch Rock Podcast are our guests of honor this week. You probably know the drill by now, but the premise is simple: spin the wheel and tier the band that it lands on - GOAT status, Hall of Famer, All Star, 6th Man, or Benchwarmer. Plenty of banter in this one!  We’d love for everyone to hear this episode! Support the Podioslave family by rating, subscribing, sharing, storying, tweeting, etc — you get the vibe.

In our 70th episode, we’re joined by Aaron “P-Nut” Wills, the bassist of 311.

In our 69th episode, the pod goes full tinfoil hat and dives into music conspiracy theories. These could be theories that we’ve concocted in our brains or even lesser known conspiracies floating around the music world. Is Taylor Swift really signing all of those CDs? Is Post Malone the ultimate industry plant? Does Record Store Day pump the numbers on releases?! We discuss all of these and more! We open this episode with: A reaction to a couple new music announcements - Halsey + Trent Reznor collaborating and new music coming from Big Red Machine (Justin Vernon, Aaron Dessner).  Announcement: We were recently guests on The Itch Rock Podcast to talk about the 20th anniversary of Jimmy Eat World’s Bleed American. We had a blast with those guys. Check it out on all streaming platforms!

In our 68th episode, the pod re-visits album reviews for a number of records that are now deemed classics by today’s standards. Did the review age well? Did the review age poorly? We take a look at three separate Radiohead albums (Completely by chance. We were stunned!) as well as classics from Led Zeppelin, Daft Punk and Nirvana.  We open this episode with: A reaction to Dave Chappelle joining the Foo Fighters on stage for a Radiohead ‘Creep’ cover and a reaction to Metallica re-releasing the Black album with 53 guest appearances (Corey Taylor, Phoebe Bridgers, Jason Isbell, and more).  If you like what you hear, please rate, subscribe, and share!  (On the episode: (0:00) Podcast and episode intro.

In our 67th episode, the pod discusses a number of great songs that never found their way on to proper full length albums. These could be songs from movie soundtracks, compilations, live recordings only, etc. Some of these are well known, while others are deep cuts only the nerds know about. Either way, we’re here for it! We open this episode with: A reaction to the anti vaxx protest outside of the Foo Fighters club show, a new music announcement round up (Slipknot, Thrice, Code Orange/Billy Corgan), and one of Nate’s ideas coming to reality (the club to arena tour - Twenty One Pilots)  If you like what you hear, please rate, subscribe, and share!  (On the episode: (0:00) Podcast and episode intro.

In our 65th episode, we dive head first into comeback albums. Our definition of “Comeback Album” is not simply new music after a long break - it could be a new member, a rebound after a flop, or certain band dynamics shifting.  In true Podioslave fashion, we dissect the why and the how. Do comeback albums always live up to the hype? Listen and find out!

In our 64th episode, we bring back the one and only Greg Bergdorf (Guitarist of the Bourbon Brothers and Zebrahead founding member) for a full episode on touring. Greg is no stranger to the road (having toured for nearly 20 years), so who better to have on for this episode. Want to know about pre-show rituals? Coolest thing he ever bought on tour?

In our 63rd episode, the pod talks all things festivals. This is the perfect time to talk festivals, as not only is festival season approaching, but this year marks the anticipated return of live music. We take a look at a number of the recent announcements and react to them. Is Lollapalooza worth going to this year? How about Riot Fest? Is Bonnaroo back and better than ever? Where does the Pitchfork Music Fest fit into all this? We open this episode with: a live music round up - which shows we are most anticipating, and a ‘guess the price of this musician/artist’s Cameo’ game — over/under style!
