The Mike Herrera Podcast

603 Starved Naked Cold and Wet

Free Form Fun

This week: Joe from St. Pete calls in about the Seahawks Super Bowl win (Mike is absolutely not over it), shouts out Clint Gresham, and recaps the Jannus Live show with Goldfinger, Zebrahead, Unwritten Law, and sullvn. Dave from Omaha asks about the new Yellowcard album and Mike gives a real, honest take. A mystery caller accidentally tries to sign up for Naked and Afraid, which sends Mike down a full reality TV rabbit hole: Survivor, Big Brother, The Traitors, and which one he would actually do. And Anderson calls in from the Dallas show at Southside Ballroom. Plus: Zebrahead has a new song out, shoutout to Ben Osmundson, sullvn breakdown, new MxPx album update, and why you should get out to a show this summer.

Ep 601. Rev on The Drowns

We talked about obsession, debt, making art for yourself, and the new Drowns album recorded with Bill Stevenson at The Blasting Room. Also: Zach Blair shreds on a track, Matt Hensley plays accordion, and Rev asks me why Slowly Going the Way of the Buffalo is the AC/DC of punk rock.
