Hobart Reveals the Insane Story Behind I Am Ryan and Hollywood's Weirdest Fame, Game, Musician, actor, and creative wild card. Hobart sits down with Keith Reza for a funny, strange, and genuinely fascinating conversation about breaking into film, building a movie around an outrageous premise, and finding comedy in the absurdity of modern Hollywood. His official site describes a career spanning over 1,000 concerts, Warped Tour, acting, and live hosting — and this episode feels like all of that energy crashing together at once. The conversation dives into I Am Ryan, a comedy about a Ryan Reynolds doppelganger navigating Hollywood chaos, plus the role of improvisation, the power of sound design, the weirdness of celebrity culture, and the kind of big questions that turn a normal interview into something way more memorable. Guest Info: Hobart According to his official site, Hobart is a performer with a background that spans music, live entertainment, and screen work. His website describes him as having played over 1,000 concerts, being a Warped Tour veteran, a film, TV, and streaming actor, and the host of Live Play Bingo. His film I Am Ryan is listed on IMDb as a comedy about a Ryan Reynolds doppelganger and his manager causing chaos in Hollywood while navigating celebrity events and red carpets. IMDb lists the release date as May 22, 2026.

"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!

Gary gives Tyler homework: listen to three songs from Dead Poetic's New Medicines and come ready to talk. In this episode of All Consuming Podcast, we dig into one of Gary's favorite albums, why New Medicines stood out in the Tooth & Nail and Solid State era, and whether Dead Poetic fits the “Christian band” label or something more like Christians making music.We also get into the bigger conversation around what we consume, how music shapes us, parenting kids through music choices, Warped Tour-era sing/scream bands, comparisons to Underoath, Emery, Saosin, Chiodos, and why Taste the Red Hands is such a killer album opener. Tyler may not be a full Dead Poetic convert yet, but he walks away with a new respect for the album.Songs discussed: “New Medicines,” “Taste the Red Hands,” and “Vanus Empty.”

The Mimsies were an underground band associated with the late 1990s and early 2000s DIY music scene. Their sound combined straightforward melodic elements with a raw, unpolished style typical of independent releases from that era. While they did not achieve widespread commercial success, they developed a small following through word of mouth and local performances. The band is often noted for reflecting the aesthetic and approach of the broader underground punk and indie communities.

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!

Mikey, Tom, and Justin talk music, hockey, and anything else that gets in their way. Tom and Mikey are lifelong friends that grew up on Long Island during the glory days of alternative music where our local bands were As Tall As Lions, Brand New, Taking Back Sunday, Bayside, The Sleeping, Envy on the Coast, you get the point. We spent many nights together at The Downtown, catching any pop-punk, indie, hardcore, or emo band that came through. This was not a phase, Mom! Fast forward 20 years and we are still just as passionate about the scene as we were during our girl jeans and youth XL band tees days. Tom and Mikey are diehard New York Islanders fans, but Justin (Bolts fan) likes to remind us that we are not an Isles podcast. As we got older we realized we can like more than one thing and running beside our love for music has always been our love for hockey. We have realized we are not alone in this thinking, actually there are many of us that love these two things! This podcast explores just how connected they are!
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.

"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!

On this week's episode we were joined by BMXer, entrepreneur and music lover Coco Zurita! Fun fact Jess has technically known Coco for years, but she hadn't seen him in over 17 years when she was watching the vert ramp at Warped Tour in Orlando last year and saw a familiar face! So of course she had to say hello and decided to invite him on the podcast. That being said we had a fantastic time chatting with him about riding at Warped Tour, music he's into, cars and the park he's taking care of in his home town of Santiago Chile. Coco is an all around amazing human being and he's doing great things for his community and beyond. You should definitely check him out on all social media platforms after you've listened to this interview. That being said, I hope you enjoy the conversation we had with Coco as much as we did!
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.
"We do not look like the bands that we sound like, and we don't sound like the bands that we look like, which is what I'm kinda going for." Lee Jennings of The Funeral Portrait boards the tour bus to talk active rock, the rising cost of touring, and the operational reality of paid VIPs. Recorded live from their tour bus outside Allstate Arena, Lee Jennings of The Funeral Portrait joins Lizzie right before opening for I Prevail and Three Days Grace. Lee breaks down the band's aesthetic and sonic shift from 2010s scene core toward active rock, a move that recently culminated in a No. 1 Billboard Mainstream Rock hit for the band. He details the importance of bringing theatricality back to heavy music with their "Devotion Ceremonies," drawing direct inspiration from early-2000s acts like My Chemical Romance and his love for Hawthorne Heights' Skeletons album. The interview also tackles the harsh modern realities of being in a touring band. Lee provides a candid look at why the Warped Tour era of free meet-and-greets is over, explaining how paid VIP packages have become an operational necessity for bands facing skyrocketing merch cuts and travel costs. Back in the studio, Brian and Lizzie debate the cultural weight of "divorced dad rock" in relation to Three Days Grace, and recap the talking points for their upcoming panel exploring emo and comic book history at C2E2. "I think so much of it is our worlds are now meshing. Getting to form our own way has been really cool because I love being theatrical. I grew up being a theater kid, so of course it's gonna shine no matter what." "We grew up going to Warped Tour and standing in line and meeting our favorite bands for free. There was never a paid wall... Now I'm charging for VIP, and it's hard because paid VIP pays for us to actually be on tour because it is so much more expensive to be on tour now than it ever has been." "Those are the bands I grew up listening to... I loved lore-driven bands, and I think that's something that I really wanted to focus on. I want my own version of that." JOIN THE CLUB!

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.
Step into Episode 204 of On The Delo as Delo sits down with Teddy, a fifth-generation Arizona native and co-founder of Pretty Decent Concepts, for a wide-ranging conversation about music, grit, marriage, and building one of Phoenix's most creative restaurant groups from the ground up. From touring the country on $7 a day with his rock band Hollywood Heartthrob to winning a million-dollar raffle and losing it all chasing the music dream — and then betting everything on Downtown Phoenix before anyone else believed in it — Teddy's story is a masterclass in persistence, pivoting, and playing the long game.The conversation covers how Teddy and his wife Katie built their restaurant group concept by concept, starting with a bootstrapped Chico Malo at Cityscape in Downtown Phoenix, navigating chef drama and a complete menu overhaul weeks before opening, opening and ultimately shuttering Chico Malo Miami after a four-year battle with neighbors, and doubling down on Tempe when everyone said it couldn't work. Teddy also shares the creative philosophy behind their cinematic concepts, why he treats every restaurant like an album, how collaboration with talent like Scott Conant on the upcoming Roman God of Fire sets them apart, and why a rising tide lifts all ships when it comes to building great neighborhoods. If you're in hospitality, entrepreneurship, or just love the Arizona food scene, this episode is packed with real insight and great stories.Chapter Guide (Timestamps):(0:00 - 1:41) Delo's Intro, Episode 204, and Welcoming Teddy(1:42 - 3:34) Fifth-Generation Arizona Roots, Sun Devil Marching Band, and West Side Phoenix(3:35 - 7:19) Hollywood Heartthrob, Warped Tour, Record Label, and Music Industry Lessons(7:20 - 10:57) Every Failure Translates: Business Lessons from Music to Restaurants(10:58 - 13:49) Building with Katie: Partnership, Marriage, and 17 Years of Growing Together(13:50 - 17:03) Life on Tour, $7 a Day, and Katie Running Merch on the Road(17:04 - 18:25) Winning the Million-Dollar Health & Wealth Raffle and Taking the Cash Option(18:26 - 24:36) Opening Chico Malo: Downtown Phoenix, Chef Drama, Menu Pivots, and the Underdog Win(24:37 - 26:38) Chico Malo Miami: COVID, Hotel Rooms with a Toddler, and Knowing When to Walk Away(26:39 - 32:18) Betting on Tempe: Filthy Animal, Doubters, a Rising Tide, and the ASU Generation(32:19 - 36:10) Pat Tillman, Jake Plummer, ASU Lore, and the Rose Bowl Memory(36:11 - 38:23) Roman God of Fire, Scott Conant, Forgive Me Father, and What's Opening in June(38:24 - 40:48) Wren and Wolf, the California Group That Never Opened, and Downtown Phoenix Today(40:49 - 44:31) Rapid Fire: Coffee, Aliens, Bench Press, Richardson's, and Rapid-Fire Wrap-Up

"You're on stage. You're playing shows. You're going on tours, and they're like, you haven't paid your dues. It's like, I'm doing it right now. This is the dues." Drop Dead, Gorgeous is back. After a 15-year hiatus, frontman Daniel "Stills" Stillman joins Brian and Lizzie to talk about their highly anticipated return, dropping the new EP Sink Your Teeth, and gearing up for Warped Tour. Stills takes us back to 2006, explaining the raw, meticulous production behind In Vogue and what it was actually like blowing up on Myspace as teenagers. We talk about the very real pushback they got from traditional hardcore bands for wearing tight pants, why they skipped the "paying your dues" phase, and a wild story about a lost Skrillex remix that never saw the light of day. We also get into the current state of songwriting and the uncomfortable reality of AI tools pushing pop artists to either innovate or be replaced. "We were in that phase of wearing tight jeans, girl pants... we were kind of in a heavier scene, and so there was still hardcore bands that weren't really into that at all. We got a lot of pushback and hate because of that." "AI highlighted to me how formulated pop music actually is. And I think what it's forcing actual big pop artists to do now is to push the boundaries and mix it up more, because if they don't, they will be replaced by AI." "You're on stage, you're playing shows, you're going on tours, and they're like, you haven't paid your dues. It's like, I'm doing it right now. This is the dues. I'm here today to do that."

"I've been in bands with Adrian for the last 22 years, my entire adult life. It's crazy to think that I'm not gonna be able to do this with him, but I'm very proud of him for making the decision that he needed to make for himself." Brompton from Action/Adventure stops by to chat about the band's upcoming headlining show at Bottom Lounge and the intense creative process behind their new record, 'Ever After'. The crew also discusses drummer Adrian leaving the band and shares thoughts on the current state of festival culture. Action/Adventure just went through the hardest six months of their career. Brompton joins the club to talk shit, clear the air, and unpack the intense creative process behind their upcoming record, 'Ever After'. We get into what it was like writing under extreme pressure, crying in vocal booths, and locking into the studio with Alan Day of Four Year Strong. Brompton also opens up about the bittersweet departure of longtime drummer Adrian, making their upcoming March 13 Bottom Lounge record release show alongside Rematch, Rarity, and Mimi At The Altar an emotional final performance. Plus, we discuss the current state of scene festivals. With When We Were Young heavily pivoting toward legacy acts, does the scene actually need the return of Warped Tour? "We wrote it pretty much all together... it was probably like the hardest six months of our career as a band, really put us through the wringer, but I'm super proud of it." "I'm just happy that he's making what he feels like is the best decision for him. And obviously, it's just all love and support." "I always kind of viewed When We Were Young as more of a legacy band thing... and Warped is more of a nostalgia thing, but they do have their finger more on the pulse of where the scene is going."
