Mark O'Connell and Eddie Reyes join Caught On The Mike to discuss the formation of their new band, ME., and the journey behind their debut album, ALL GOOD THINGS. After spending nearly a decade apart following their departures from Taking Back Sunday, Mark and Eddie reconnected with no expectations beyond making music together. What began as a creative experiment evolved into an entirely new band built on trust, growth, and a shared desire to move forward rather than revisit the past. In this conversation, we discuss the emotional story behind their debut single "Special," the process of writing without a frontman, bringing vocalist Mike Jansen into the fold through an open casting call, and why ME. represents a fresh start instead of a reunion. We also dive into creativity, accountability, personal growth, and what it means to build something new after years of experience in the music industry. This is an honest conversation about reinvention, friendship, and finding purpose in the next chapter. Listen to ME.'s debut single "Special" now and watch for their debut album ALL GOOD THINGS, arriving July 24, 2026.

Chapter 728 - "Warped Tour DC 2026" ...as read by Bryan Patton Today I have a recap of my time at Warped Tour in DC, including interviews with Cory Brandan of Norma Jean and Kelly Ogden and Luis Cabezas of The Dollyrots!DiscordPatreonSubstack Email: asthestorygrows@gmail.com Chapter 728 Music: Thrice - "Gnash" Norma Jean - "I The Planet" The Dollyrots - "Hot Mom With The Skinny Pants On" Initiate - "Waste Your Life"  

"It's not cool to be sad. Like, there needs to be light at the end of the tunnel. And at the end of the day, we get to play something like Warped Tour. So while we are united in the fact that we all share similar experiences, you do have to still view life with optimism and know that it gets better."  As we wrap up our coverage from this weekend at Warped DC 2026, here's a rewind to our talks with acts such as Arrows In Action, The Home Team, Huddy and more from Orlando Warped 2025. Episode Highlights The Home Team's R&B Infusions: The band discusses how their heavy background (prog-metal, hardcore, and deathcore) paradoxically mixes with modern R&B vocal styles to create their unique alternative sound. They emphasize their commitment to giving independent local bands openings slots on their sold-out dates. Derek Whibley's Walking Disaster Launch: Whibley details the origins of his new apparel and creative brand, Walking Disaster, which rolled directly following the conclusion of Sum 41. He highlights how the designs are highly collaborative, using direct fan feedback and references to past lyricism. Girlfriends' Nostalgic Inspiration: Travis from Girlfriends dives into the emotional weight of their record There Goes the Neighborhood, describing it as a sobering realization of growing up, acknowledging parental imperfections, and capturing youth nostalgia. Senseless Fail & the Emo Mantle: Buddy from Senses Fail shares a candid perspective on the genre's history, claiming the band proudly carried the "emo" mantle during a time when other third and fourth-wave bands actively resisted the label. Arrows in Action on Balance and Coping: The band details how their personal music style balances dark, brooding lyrical topics surrounding mental health with vibrant, upbeat instrumentation and dynamic live humor as a primary coping mechanism. Oxymorons on Representation: The group highlights the massive significance of racial diversity and representation in the alternative scene, pointing out the explicit pride that fans and personnel of color express when seeing them perform on stage.

Lured Up Podcast 396 Live Streamed on - 6/9/2026 Publish Date - 6/12/2026 To all the new listeners: WELCOME and THANK YOU for checking out LURED UP! We are back home from GO Fest Chicago and we are both in agreement that this was the best IRL GO Fest that we have ever attended. There is plenty to unpack to back up our sentiment, beginning with how the introduction of different gameplay “Districts” put you right into the gameplay, as soon as you stepped off the plane. It was an amazing feeling to have the event come to life as soon as arriving in Chicago, and the barrage of geo-based Timed Research kept Trainers tied to their games as the grind through a flurry of tasks. Even moving from the airport to our hotel kept us immersed in the game, making the gameboard come to life. If really make Trainers feel like they were looking at an in-game world map at their feet. The geo fencing of districts paired with associated Timed Research had players covering a serious amount of territory. If this is any indication of how IRL events can curate and shape real life gameplay behaviors, than this is just the tip of a very exciting iceberg. We had a full weekend of gameplay, including countless Raids and an insane amount of walking. Both of our Adventure Sync numbers were above 120km. In typical Lured Up fashion, we had stuff going on all weekend. On Friday nights we hosted our meetup at Monk's Pub, the same place as our 2019 meetup. You all SHOWED UP and we had double the turnout than we expected, and we are so grateful to have been able to spend time with all of you. Next year we will need a new venue! Saturday night was Adam's idea, with a Pokémon themed Pop-Punk night. All of the bands on the bill were incredible, with Midway Down headlining and absolutely brought the house down. It was so much fun to hang with the community in that setting. We will absolutely be incorporating live music/entertainment into our plans next year! Finally on Friday we met up with our good friend JT Valor for a final push of Raids at the end of the weekend. In typical Raid Train Fashion, we ended up picking up Trainers at every stop. It was VERY cool to see JT in action. He gives so much of himself to his fans and spends heaps of time with everyone. JT's combination of hardcore gameplay, travel, and approachability is PGO video content at its best. In typical live-service fashion, it seemed that about as soon as we stepped on the airplane to come home, new news was dropping about the events happening through the end of the month. We blast through the news and cover all of the new event info released post-Chicago.

The boys are back to discuss if social media is killing pop punk!

On this episode of Good Noise Podcast, I'm joined by WALWIN to talk about the beginnings of his new era, centered around “Fresh Prince of Pop Punk.” We dive into what this new creative chapter represents, how the sound and direction are evolving, and what fans can expect from upcoming music.We also talk about artistic reinvention, building momentum into a new rollout, and how this era reflects where WALWIN is at creatively right now.WALWIN Socials:Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/walwin.mp3/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/walwinofficial/TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@walwin.mp3YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@walwinApple Music: https://music.apple.com/us/artist/walwin/1089294672Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/25I3ONjJhbX1mE62i57djG?si=WJNqib64QYGSLx7IuafhXQ

For more than 20 years, Mayday Parade has been one of the defining bands of the pop-punk and emo scene. From packed clubs and Warped Tour parking lots to sold-out venues around the world, they've built a career that has stood the test of time while continuing to connect with new generations of fans. On this episode of Caught on the Mike, guitarist Brooks Betts joins me for a conversation about the band's incredible longevity, staying creative after two decades together, the evolution of the scene, life on the road, and the challenges and rewards of keeping Mayday Parade moving forward year after year. We also discuss the band's ambitious anniversary era, the collaborative songwriting process behind recent music, the return of Vans Warped Tour, and what it means to still be creating and performing at a high level twenty years into the journey.

2001 haben die amerikanischen Punkrocker von Blink-182 ihr Album "Take Off Your Pants And Jacket" herausgebracht, auf dem auch Hits wie "The Rock Show" oder "First Date" sind. Nach ihrem internationalen Durchbruch mit dem Album "Enema Of The State" hatten sich die Möglichkeiten für Mark Hoppus, Tom DeLonge und Travis Barker vervielfacht, was die (finanzielle) Umsetzung ihres nächsten Albums betraf. Über die musikalische Ausrichtung war die Band sich jedoch nicht immer ganz einig. Sänger und Bassist Mark Hoppus wollte im Grunde genommen nochmal ein zweites "Enema Of The State" schreiben, während Tom DeLonge sich zumindest in Teilen eine musikalische Weiterentwicklung erhoffte. Musikalisch durfte es für DeLonge etwas ernsthafter und düsterer werden. Damit wurden die Spannungen innerhalb der Band größer, aber das Album "Take Off Your Pants and Jacket" auch deutlich vielfältiger. Inhaltlich beschäftigen sich Blink-182 auf "Take Off Your Pants and Jacket" wie auch schon auf dem Vorgängeralbum hauptsächlich mit pubertärem Humor. Es finden sich aber auch Themen des Erwachsenwerdens auf der Platte. Als Beispiele seien hier Themen wie jugendliche Unsicherheit, Einsamkeit oder eben auch traumatische Erlebnisse genannt, wie die Scheidung der Eltern – ein sehr persönlicher Song von Sänger und Gitarrist Tom DeLonge. Blink-182 gelten heute oft als die Band, die wie keine zweite das Genre des Pop-Punk definiert hat. Dabei haben sie mit ihren persönlichen Einflüssen aus legendären Punkbands wie NOFX, The Descendents, Bad Religion sowie Bands wie The Cure ihren Sound geschaffen. Dafür haben sie eben die Energie und das Tempo des Punks mit der Melancholie und Eingängigkeit von Popmusik vereint. Das Rückgrat der Musik – und wenn man so will auch des Erfolgs – von Blink-182 ist das Schlagzeugspiel von Travis Barker. Der begleitet die Band mit seinem Drumming nicht einfach, sondern er spielt so ausgefeilt und kreativ, dass die Drums nicht nur der Pulsschlag der schnellen Songs sind, sondern auch gleichzeitig Leadinstrument. Das Timing bei "Take Off Your Pants And Jacket" war perfekt für Blink-182. MTV war groß, Skateboards und Highschool-Komödien hatten ihre Hochzeit, und für all das konnten Blink mit ihrer Musik sozusagen den Soundtrack liefern. Damit konnten sie genau diese Generation von Jugendlichen und jungen Erwachsenen so stark prägen, denn sie haben mit ihrer Musik ein Lebensgefühl eingefangen. __________ Über diese Songs vom Album "Take Off Your Pants And Jacket" sprechen wir im Podcast • (11:25) – "Anthem Part Two" • (40:03) – "First Date" • (42:41) – "The Rock Show" • (48:11) – "Stay Together For The Kids" __________ Alle Shownotes und weiterführenden Links zur Folge "Take Off Your Pants And Jacket" findet ihr hier: https://x.swr.de/s/link182akeffourants __________ Ihr wollt mehr Podcasts wie diesen?

"It didn't feel like I'm watching a show or I'm watching these members play these songs. It felt like I was in a one and a half hour thrill ride."   Brian breaks down why Bring Me The Horizon's Next Gen tour is a PS1-fueled thrill ride, and the hosts discuss the scene's reaction to Beartooth's Caleb Shomo coming out as gay. Plus, Brian and Lizzie get into the controversial new Ozzy Osbourne interactive AI avatar—is Sharon Osbourne just securing his legacy, or is this the ultimate metal cash grab? And to cap it off, they review Drake's attempts to recover from the Kendrick Lamar fallout, noting that none of his newest tracks pass the song of the summer test. It's another auspicious day of infotainment on idobi Radio. We're teaching you things you didn't know, even if you wouldn't pass a college course with this info.   EPISODE HIGHLIGHTS: • BMTH's Live Show Evolution: Why the Next Gen tour feels like a 90s video game fever dream. • Caleb Shomo Comes Out: Navigating the metalcore community's response to the Beartooth frontman, and addressing lingering homophobia in the scene. • The Ozzy AI Avatar: Debating the Osbourne family's latest IP move and the weird future of legacy acts. • Drake Post-Kendrick: Why none of Drake's new drops are claiming the Song of the Summer title.

Lured Up Podcast 395: Forward Progress Live Streamed on - 5/27/2026 Publish Date - 5/28/2026 We are less than 2 weeks away from GO Fest Chicago! This window of time is the funky period where some are getting ready to travel to GO Fest, while the majority of others are still ready to play and grind at home! We break down some of the details of the Chicago event as well as the Team Leader Summer Quests that we will have globally over the next few weeks. Being a live service game, Pokémon GO definitely doesn't have time to rest on its laurels, as Season 23 of the game has been unveiled. Forever Forward will be our next season, and by the look of the promotional video, Niantic is doubling down on their core value of exploration. From Trainers walking an adventuring, to images of remote Pokéstops, the game has positioned itself as a key motivator in keeping Trainers moving forward. We unpack what we know so far, and how GO Fest season will drive the first few weeks of the season, leading right into Global in mid-July. We also have our June Content Update, bringing back some Raid favorites like Necrozma and some Ultra Beasts. Frigibax has been announced as the June Community Day Pokémon, and we have a few events called out for the month. If IRL GO Fests are not in your future, there is still plenty to do in game and from home, which can be considered a long, winding road to GO Fest Global. We cover some random notes like the Pokémon Fossil Museum in Chicago and the release of Excavator Pikachu. This will likely be on all Chicago Trainer's bingo cards for the weekend. Pokémon GO has once again partnered with 100 Thieves to release some killer Mewtwo merch. We are hoping to get our hands on it, and ultimately give it away to the community.  We also run through our announced Chicago plans so far, including our Podcast Community Mixer with the GO Cast Podcast and our Pokémon Pop Punk night. We hope to have even more news to share by next week, and GO Fest will be here before you know it! Finally we reflect on how it has already been a year since the Scopely acquisition. We discuss our experiences working with Niantic and how our confidence in their goals has only increased since Scopely came in. If their 1 year promotional video doesn't get you going, I am not sure what will!

That is JT Woodruff, the ultimate emo wife guy. In this episode of the Make Me a Fan series, Lizzie selects five tracks from Hawthorne Heights to prove to Brian that the band is more than just early-2000s scene stereotypes. They discuss the band's history, their modern evolution, and whether Brian is ready to join the fandom. If you had five songs to convince your friend to love your favorite band, what would you choose? In this episode of the Make Me a Fan series, Lizzie tries to convert Brian into a Hawthorne Heights believer. Despite being in the thick of the mid-2000s scene boom, Brian originally wrote the band off as a skeptic. To prove him wrong, Lizzie brought 5 specific tracks spanning their entire discography to see if she can change his mind: "Ohio Is For Lovers," "Niki FM," "Saying Sorry," "End of the Underground," and "Cardinal." We break down the undeniable edge-core grip of "Ohio Is For Lovers," revisit their Victory Records TRL era with "Saying Sorry," and look at their modern evolution. Plus, we talk about the nostalgia of the local scene, whether "Ohio Is For Lovers" was destined to be the soundtrack to every Matt Cutshall meme on the internet, and why frontman JT Woodruff is the ultimate "emo wife guy." Can five songs overwrite 20 years of scene stubbornness?   Episode Chapters: 00:00 - The Make Me A Fan Challenge 03:15 - Breaking Down Ohio Is For Lovers & Scene Stereotypes 15:40 - Cardinal & Their Modern Sound 22:20 - Niki FM: JT Woodruff is the Ultimate Emo Wife Guy 33:10 - Saying Sorry & The Victory Records Era 44:30 - End of the Underground & Brian's Final Verdict JOIN THE CLUB!

"Teen angst doesn't go away just because you get older. I think as an adult, you have less and less ways to relieve that stress of everyday life."   Multi-platinum artist Bryce Vine might be known for massive hip-hop crossover hits, but his musical DNA is pure Warped Tour.   Multi-platinum artist Bryce Vine might be known for massive hip-hop crossover hits, but his musical DNA is pure Warped Tour. From hunting down Blink-182's Dude Ranch on the radio as a kid to obsessing over the Tony Hawk's Pro Skater soundtracks, Bryce has always been a scene kid at heart. He sits down with Lizzie to talk about blending those early pop-punk influences into his mainstream sound, navigating the reality of industry expectations, and what it's actually like collaborating with scene heavyweights like John Feldmann and Travis Barker. Looking ahead to summer, Bryce talks about his placement on the Warped Tour 2026 lineup and getting to play alongside legacy acts like Third Eye Blind and New Found Glory. Stick around after the interview as Brian and Lizzie unpack the modern festival landscape, debate the mixed online reactions to the recent Warped Tour announcements, and question whether today's scene artists still get unfairly pigeonholed by outdated genre expectations.    "Teen angst doesn't go away just because you get older. I think as an adult, you have less and less ways to relieve that stress of everyday life and the things that are going on in your head, and then you just end up overthinking." "There's a lot of pressure in the music industry... you kinda gotta consider it in a different way. So I really try to tell up and coming artists not to worry too much about that and just lead by example by putting out music because it's what makes me feel good." "I just wanna make dope s***, and I think my fans get that. So if it's a punk song this time, then they learn all the words because they're invested now." JOIN THE CLUB!

"For me, it's just like I write the song so that I could get it off my chest, and I think it's the coolest thing in the world."     LØLØ stops by the club to discuss her jump to Hopeless Records, the power of hyper-specific lyrics, and double standards for women in pop-punk.     Canadian artist LØLØ joins Brian and Lizzie to talk about her upcoming album, god forbid a girl spits out her feelings! She explains why treating her songwriting like a personal diary actually helps fans connect more deeply, rather than alienating them, and what it was like making the move to a new label.  The conversation also tackles the reality of being a woman in the alternative scene. LØLØ breaks down the double standard of women getting criticized for writing 'I hate this man' tracks, while male pop-punk artists have built entire careers on the exact same premise.  Plus, Brian and Lizzie debate whether Ashlee Simpson's Autobiography era actually qualifies as an underrated scene record.    "For me, it's just like I write the song so that I could get it off my chest, and I think it's the coolest thing in the world." "I feel like a lot of women are writing that kind of song, honestly. And I see a lot of people commenting like, oh, like, imagine a guy wrote this about a girl." "That kind of stuff is important as an escape when there is so much going on in the world." JOIN THE CLUB!

Is pop punk for losers? Are we all losers? Let's find out!

Brian McShea of Good Terms joins Caught on the Mike for a conversation that captures a band right in the middle of their breakout moment. From humble beginnings writing and recording in bedrooms to headlining their own national tour and landing a spot on the iconic Vans Warped Tour, Brian walks through the evolution of Good Terms in real time. We dive into the impact of Burnout Deluxe, the explosive growth of “Progress,” and the emotional weight behind the music—especially in a year shaped by both personal challenges and major wins. Brian also shares what it was like working with an outside producer for the first time on “All In,” how the road has influenced their sound, and why connection with fans has become such a driving force for the band. With momentum building and “the biggest years ahead,” this episode is all about resilience, growth, and what happens when preparation meets opportunity.

"Listen. If 9/11 didn't happen, we wouldn't have My Chemical Romance. We wouldn't have Twilight. We wouldn't have this entire Tumblr core era of girly pop."   We took the podcast to C2E2! In front of a live Chicago audience, we are unpacking the pipeline between My Chemical Romance, early 2000s pop-punk, and the comic book industry. Lizzie officially steps into her role as our resident Gerard Way historian to explain how The Umbrella Academy and The True Lives of the Fabulous Killjoys took the intricate, non-linear storytelling of MCR and translated it into graphic novels that spoke directly to scene kids. Plus, we talk about the bizarrely perfect era of 2000s superhero movie soundtracks, and yes, we actually connect 9/11 to the creation of My Chemical Romance and Twilight (we told you it was a live show).   What we cover on the panel: • Why The Umbrella Academy is essentially a family trauma story dressed as a superhero comic • Gerard Way's transition from the Black Parade era into comic book writing • The emo lore behind Patrick Stump and Max Bemis entering the comic space • Why movies like Daredevil and Spider-Man had memorable scene soundtracks • The infamous 9/11 to MCR to Twilight domino effect"      "Is Umbrella Academy an emo comic book? I would argue yes. It's acknowledging family trauma and abandonment in a creative way that makes people draw that inwards, just like listening to My Chemical Romance or Paramore." "The Danger Days era was a vibrant, loud shift... having these big bright colors and being whimsical again. It's joy as an act of resistance." "There were a lot of artists and a lot of songs that I found specifically from comic book movies of the early 2000s because there was clearly some crossover of, like, well, if you like Spider-Man, you're gonna love Dashboard Confessional."

On this episode we are joined by Jordan Pundik of New Found Glory. We discuss his early bands, New Found Glory's formation, playing with MxPX in 1999, their rise to fame in the early 2000's, "My Friends Over You", their "Coming Home" album, working with Mark Hoppus on "Not Without A Fight", and their new album "Listen Up!"Host/Produced by: http://instagram.com/poppincurbsFull video interview available on YouTube:https://youtu.be/zgC_VqnwwRE

"Well, you've been waiting this long for a white guy to explain a Mexican band to you. It's very upsetting for all involved." In this episode of the Make Me a Fan series, we're tackling one of the biggest blind spots in Lizzie's scene history: Pierce The Veil. While Brian was championing the band's "Mexicore" roots and heavy guitar work, Lizzie was busy dodging the 2010s Tumblr fangirl hype.   "In this episode of the Make Me a Fan series, we're tackling one of the biggest blind spots in Lizzie's scene history: Pierce The Veil. While Brian was championing the band's ""Mexicore"" roots and heavy guitar work, Lizzie was busy dodging the 2010s Tumblr fangirl hype and listening to Hollywood Undead instead.   Now that PTV is gearing up for their massive 2025 tour with Sleeping With Sirens, it's time for a proper retrospective. Brian tests Lizzie with five defining songs spanning from A Flair for the Dramatic to The Jaws of Life. We discuss Vic Fuentes' distinct vocals, the aggressive perfection of King For A Day, and whether the band's theatrical energy actually works for a first-time listener today.   Plus: The hilarious irony of a white guy enthusiastically explaining a Mexican-American band to a Mexican woman, and why the scene desperately needed non-white representation during the Warped Tour era.   Tracks Discussed In This Episode: • King For A Day • So Far So Fake • Besitos • Yeah Boy and Dollface • Bulletproof Love   "Well, you've been waiting this long for a white guy to explain a Mexican band to you. It's very upsetting for all involved." "I want my anxiety to make me feel like I'm constantly under attack. If I don't feel that I am always playing a DDR game, I don't know what to do with life." "Me always not listening to white men. More for me." JOIN THE CLUB!

Throwback Radio #369 - DJ Digital Dave (Emo Mix) Mixcloud: mixcloud.com/djdigitaldave Bookings: dave@djdigitaldave.com Website: djdigitaldave.com IG: @djdigitaldave1 Facebook: /djdigitaldave

This week, Alex & Dan wander down to the Nostalgia Beach to discuss Alex's new album (not THAT Alex - Alex Melton!).Discussing where Alex Melton came from during the COVID-era Covers on YouTube to the polished anthemic songs lovingly crafted for his first proper full length studio album, there's plenty to breakdown; from band influences to song composition, this short episode dives into the Pop Punk and Country roots of the artist and how the dynamic duo of the South Coast believes delivers a wonderful first album!#GITS

On this episode of Caught on the Mike, Mike sits down with guitarist, songwriter, and producer Greg Bergdorf. Greg spent more than 15 years as the lead guitarist and songwriter for Zebrahead, helping shape the band's signature blend of punk, rap, and rock while touring the world and performing on festivals like Warped Tour. Greg shares stories from the early Orange County music scene, the moment the band realized their music was reaching fans around the world, and what life was really like during the nonstop touring era of the late ‘90s and 2000s. He also reflects on the decision to step away from full-time touring and how he redefined his identity after nearly two decades in a globally successful band. Today, Greg continues to stay deeply involved in music as a producer, engineer, and collaborator, helping artists bring their creative visions to life while also performing with his current project, The Bourbon Brothers. This conversation dives into the evolution of the music industry, lessons learned from working with top producers, and what still fuels his passion for creating music today. If you're a fan of punk rock, the Warped Tour era, songwriting, or the behind-the-scenes side of making records, this is a conversation you won't want to miss.

The Warped Tour, launched in 1995, became a defining force for emo, pop punk, and post-hardcore music, propelling bands like Blink-182, Green Day, and My Chemical Romance into the spotlight. It fostered a sense of community and DIY ethos, influencing youth culture and offering a vital platform for emerging artists. Though it ended in 2018, its legacy endures, inspiring new generations of musicians and fans.

For more than two decades, Story of the Year have remained one of the most influential bands in post-hardcore and emo. From the massive success of Page Avenue and the breakout anthem Until the Day I Die, to a catalog that's continued to evolve with every release, the band has built a legacy that still resonates with fans around the world. On this episode of Caught on the Mike, I'm joined by drummer Josh Wills for a conversation about the band's 20+ year journey, the pressure that followed their early success, and how they've continued to evolve their sound while staying true to what fans connected with in the first place. We also talk about the renewed momentum the band experienced with Tear Me to Pieces, how a new generation of fans began discovering the band through that record cycle, and the creative process behind their newest album A.R.S.O.N.. Josh shares insight into the songwriting process, recording with producer Colin Brittain, and how the band continues to balance family, creativity, and life on the road after more than 20 years together. It's a conversation about longevity, reinvention, and the passion that keeps Story of the Year pushing forward.

Send in your music story!A lot of music interviews stay on the surface. We didn't. Dom from July Crowd joins us for a conversation that starts with everyday life in Calgary and ends in the kind of honesty that makes you sit still for a second. We talk about growing up on pop punk, how marriage changes your priorities, and why the older you get, the more you notice which songs still feel true when the lights are off. Dom breaks down the story and meaning behind “The Same Way,” July Crowd's acoustic ballad about closeness, distance, and learning to accept what won't happen while still honoring the love that was there. We get into the songwriting moment that sparked it, plus the craft behind the recording: stacked vocal harmonies, intentional space, and production choices that make an acoustic track hit with real weight. If you're into pop punk songwriting, emo lyrics, and music production details, there's a lot to steal here in the best way. Then the conversation turns toward grief and “Like Home,” a song shaped by losing Dom's dad and the complicated emotions that come with it: love, anger, betrayal, memory, and the weird emptiness of a home that no longer feels the same. We also hit influences (Weezer, Blink-182, Green Day, Sum 41), collaboration dreams, and we end with our Mixtape game for a lighter landing. Subscribe for more long-form music conversations, share this with a friend who needs a song that understands them, and leave a review with the lyric or moment that stuck with you most.Please check out our merch page! : https://hookandbridgepodmerch.printful.me/ Become part of our community! : https://www.patreon.com/cw/TheHookandBridgePodcastPremiumSupport the showPlease give us a quick rate and review.

Brian Joyce and Nick Trask of Major League join Caught on the Mike to talk about the band's long-awaited return and the journey that led them back to the stage together. Formed in 2009 in New Jersey, Major League built a passionate following through relentless DIY touring and emotionally driven pop-punk and emo anthems. Their early releases — including The Truth Is…, Variables, and the 2012 full-length Hard Feelings — became staples of the early 2010s scene and connected deeply with fans who grew up in the era of VFW shows, Tumblr culture, and cross-country van tours. In this episode, Brian and Nick reflect on the band's rise, the challenges and growth that came with lineup changes, and the emotions surrounding their 2016 farewell. They also dive into the conversations that led to their reunion, celebrating 15 years of The Truth Is…, and what it means to reconnect with fans after nearly a decade away. The conversation bridges the past and present — from the raw early days of the band to this new chapter as Major League hits the road again and revisits the music that defined a generation of pop-punk and emo fans.

Ska-punk lifer Chris DeMakes joins Caught On The Mike for a conversation about longevity, songwriting, and three decades of turning punk shows into full-blown celebrations. As guitarist and vocalist of Less Than Jake, Chris has helped define the sound and spirit of ska-punk since the 1990s — blending big hooks, horn-driven chaos, and an unmatched connection with fans. In this episode, we talk about the upcoming Wake & Bake hometown celebration in Gainesville, the anniversaries of the classic albums Losing Streak and Borders & Boundaries, and why Less Than Jake has managed to keep the party going for over 30 years without ever slowing down. Chris also shares stories from the road, insights into the band's songwriting process, and how projects like his podcast Chris DeMakes A Podcast have given him a deeper appreciation for the craft behind the songs we love. From sweaty club shows to massive festivals, Less Than Jake has built a career on energy, consistency, and pure fun — and Chris breaks down how they've kept that momentum going for generations of fans.

"If Paramore and Cute Is What We Aim For only released one album, I think Cute Is What We Aim For would have gone down as a more popular band." Fred Cimato joins the podcast to set the record straight on the legacy of Cute Is What We Aim For. He discusses the "indefensible" behavior of frontman Shaant Hacikyan, the stalled 2026 reunion plans, and why he hated recording 'Rotation' with John Feldmann.   Fred Cimato is finally talking. After blowing up on TikTok with the real story behind Cute Is What We Aim For, the founding bassist joins us to set the record straight on one of the most chaotic bands in Fueled By Ramen history. He opens up about the "indefensible" behavior of frontman Shaant Hacikyan, why the 2026 reunion tour is stalled, and the painful reality of watching their labelmates Paramore become superstars while his band imploded. Fred also details the disaster of recording 'Rotation' with John Feldmann ("a dog sh*t record"), why 'The Same Old Blood Rush with a New Touch' was a bigger debut than anyone admits, and the secrets behind "Curse of Curves."    "Nobody has more reason to hate that guy than I do. Nobody... But, like, a lot of people have it wrong, and people add stuff onto him that he doesn't deserve." "I thought that Feldman was a terrible producer. I thought he was the worst guy ever for the job... I thought we were making a dog s*** record." JOIN THE CLUB!

Tre RussoTake a walk with me down Fascination Street as I get to know Tre Russo. Tre is the bass player and front man for the new band out of San Diego, Soundivision. Tre is also the son of pop punk legend Scott Russo; but we really focus on Tre and his new band. In this episode, we chat about his getting into music, and what made him and his friends decide to put a band together. Then we talk about their writing & producing style, and some of the previous incarnations of the band before they settled on this lineup. Of course, Tre shares stories of growing up around his dad and Unwritten Law, and the impact that environment and the array of musicians that were always around. Soundivision consists of Tre Russo, Kerek Martinson, and DJ Hernandez. Soundivision's debut album "Invincible" is available everywhere, and Tre even lets le play my favorite track from the record. We go all over the place in this one, and Tre gives some peeks behind the curtain of what it is like to not only grow up with musical inspiration and support, but how that support manifests itself even into his adult years. Follow Soundivision on Instagram and catch one of their live shows if you have the chance.

Episode 360 features Thanks! I Hate It from Hollister, CA. I spoke with Joel and Ryan to talk about their recent Midwest tour, traveling in an RV, balancing remote work while on the road, and what it really looks like to grind as an independent band in today's music landscape. We got into their songwriting process, the emotional themes behind their music, and how they have carved out their sound in the modern emo and pop punk scene. Thanks! I Hate It is a self described Mid Westcoast Emo band blending the heart tugging vulnerability of Midwest emo with the high energy punch of pop punk. Drawing inspiration from bands like Real Friends, Hot Mulligan, and The Wonder Years, they have developed a sound that feels both nostalgic and fresh. Their sophomore album Scatterbrain, released in fall 2025, has been praised as a major step forward in both songwriting and production. The band is also known for their creatively bold song titles, and on this episode I featured the track “Tonight's the Night You Hit Your Dad.” Thanks for listening and for continuing to support independent and local artists.   UPCOMING TOUR DATES    SUNFO + THANKS!

I think that a lot of people argue about what emo is because they're trying to protect their own identity as part of it.   The Emo Social Club debuts on Idobi Radio! Brian and Lizzie discuss the Warped Tour 2026 lineup announcements and the reality of festival budgets. Brian argues that while fans want My Chemical Romance, the price tag might be impossible for the tour to sustain.   The Emo Social Club has officially moved to Idobi Radio! For our debut episode, we look at the only news that matters right now: The Warped Tour 2026 lineup announcements. Brian and Lizzie debate which heavy hitters are likely to take the main stage—from the return of Fall Out Boy to the potential for a Bring Me The Horizon headline slot. Brian argues that while fans want My Chemical Romance, the price tag might be impossible for the tour to sustain. Plus, we tackle the internet's favorite argument: Gatekeeping. We look back at being "called emo" in 2005 vs. 2026, and why the term "Midwest Emo" might just be a weather pattern rather than a genre. Whether you were in the pit in 2005 or discovered the scene on TikTok, this episode covers the past, present, and future of pop punk.   "I think that a lot of people argue about what emo is because they're trying to protect their own identity as part of it." "I think what happens in the Midwest is generally more influential on emo music than what happens on the coasts." "Realistically, I'm like, Warped Tour cannot afford My Chemical Romance. That is millions of dollars." JOIN THE CLUB!
