Punk Till I Die

Episode 199-Jason Kottwitz (Cheetah Chrome, Sylvain Sylvain, The Bulemics)

In ep199 we shoot the shit with Jason Kottwitz. You might not know the name but I know that you know some of the bands he’s been in: Dead Boys, Sylvain Sylvain and the Sylvains, M.O.D., The Bulemics, to name a few. He’s had a long career in the punk rock and roll scene and has played with legend after legend. How did this small town Illinois kid play with so many legends? Listen and find out. 

Episode 198: Dead boys reanimated in… Lombard?

Ep198 is dedicated to the Dead Boys/Briefs/Suzi Moon/ Poison Boys show in lovely Lombard IL. Tom drove in, we all got hotel rooms, and we met Suzi Moon and band in a record store before the show.  Then we discuss the gig in great detail. What a fun Saturday it was, but wouldn’t want to do that again in a hurry! Music by Electric Frankenstein, Misfits, The Queers, Poison Boys, Suzi Moon, The Briefs, Dead Boys and Bat Hearse. 

Episode 196: Blag Dahlia (The Dwarves)

In episode 196 we visit with Blag and get down to the nitty gritty of the new side project album “Introducing Ralph Champagne”. It’s a 70s style outlaw county album but featuring some of the dirtiest lyrics you will ever hear! However, it’s not all fun and games as Blag also talks about the July 4 slaughter in his hometown of Highland Park IL, and he gets political for a minute. With music from The Dwarves and Blag as Ralph Champagne.

Episode 197: Backpacks and face masks?? (take 2)

In episode 197 Tom and Neil talk about the two gigs they were both at that week. Tom went to see Exodus and Agent Orange in Grand Rapids, while Neil went to see Amyl and the Sniffers and Agent Orange in Chicago. Let’s just say that Neil wasn’t too impressed by the Amyl show… With music by The Crumbs, Die Kreuzen, Agent Orange, Angry Samoans, Ganser, The Briefs and The Apers. 

And sorry for the messed up version 1 of this. Dunno how that happened!

Episode 195: Another visit with BA (Sloppy Seconds)

In episode 195 we visit with BA from Sloppy Seconds for the third time! We talk about whatever is on his mind really, including his impressive weight loss and his double knee replacement! But we also discuss their upcoming tour in great detail. Most of the songs are by Sloppy Seconds, but we do play songs by Ultraman and Raging Nathans too, two of their upcoming support bands. 

Episode 194: BYO top 5s

In episode 194 we focus on BYO records. Following our recent dissection of our favorite tracks on SST we decided to do a similar thing with BYO. But of course we talk about tons of other nonsense too including the swing revival, college sports, and the data of Queen Elizabeth II! With music by Youth Brigade, Aggression, SNFU, The Briefs, CH3, The Business, and 7 Seconds. 

Episode 193: The return of Suzi Moon, this time with her band!

In ep193 we talk to Suzi Moon for the 2nd time but with the band (Drew and Patti) in the interview too. After all, they are an integral part of the band! There's much talk of the new album and the recent European tour, and they all picked some of their favorite songs.

Episode 191: Rev from The Drowns 2022

In ep191 we sit down with the Rev from The Drowns again. The last time was April 2020, so it was great to talk their newest releases & their recent European tour! Music by The Drowns, Get Dead, The Last Gang, Cyanide Pills, The Cunninghams and Avengers.

Episode 192: Fan Mail (we really really read it)

In ep192 it's just the 2 of us. Neil goes off on the Taylor Hawkins overkill amongst other topics, and we read lots of listener email. With music by The Nerves, Crass, Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers, Mad Sin, Black President, Elastica, Gallows and The Fall. 

Episode 190: Casey and Chris from Slaughter Boys
