Reminiscent is a weekly show where 2 best friends discuss their favorite bands from their adolescence and how it’s shaped their lives as they find themselves exploring early adulthood.
Hitting puberty in the early 2000’s was a really strange time for a lot of people, but Tom and Pat have had each others back since the early 90s. Come along for the ride.
Y’all have been begging us for an American Hi-Fi song for ages now, and we aim to please. Flavor of the Weak is a super great song, VERY guitar forward, the riff slays, the hi hats are compressed, Ni…
If emo has taught us anything through the years, it’s to express ourselves; to be honest with ourselves and others, and do it in the most verbose and flamboyant way possible. Write a song about that …
Today we’re celebrating 250 episodes and 5 years of the podcast with NEW ARTWORK! We’ve been working on a super fun art project with our friend Jess Scutella for almost a year now, and we are honored…
After absolutely bungling the Futures episode, we attempt to make it up to Jimmy Eat World (who desperately need our validation) by talking about… their most successful song to date. Then Tom gets re…
It’s Pat’s birthday so we’re breaking decade and going DEEP into a song that has totally overtaken his life, King For a Day by Pierce the Veil. This is a band that, honestly, neither of us have ever …
The cart jumps off the rails immediately as we dive right into memories of our sophomore lockdown when we originally meant to talk about our junior trip to Six Flags, when we originally meant to talk…
We get a little bit out of our comfort zone this week and imagine ourselves alone on a stage, spotlight shining, performing our favorite songs for friends, coworkers, and strangers alike. Here are th…
We talk about Fall Out Boy a lot. Like, a LOT. And we have no plan of slowing down, or at least we didn’t until we realized while recording this episode that we’re kinda the biggest FOB casuals in th…
Please have your tickets ready at the gate, because the hype train is screaming through town and it’s slowing down for NO ONE! In 2007 Mayday Parade put out one of the most legendary albums of all ti…
Few bands have had as much influence on our musical taste, our band, and our lives as Taking Back Sunday. This episode has been waiting to come out for a while, and we spend an awfully long time draf…
Khaki rock is back baby, and we’re here for it! Andrew McMahon graces our screens with some sensible slacks, no shoes, and multiple microphones. There’s not much to the video, a few dudes being dudes…
We both watched a 1h 46m minute just to deliver this episode, and we couldn’t be any more apologetic to how it turned out. This meandering conversation touches on the song and music video at times af…
In a genre not often associated with very technical artists, quite a few drummers have stood out from the pack as absolute masters of their instrument. This week we draft our favorite songs that feat…
After realizing that The Academy Is… is not Rookie of the Year, the guys take a moment to reflect and speculate on the perception and reception of The Academy Is… as a band, and we discuss the rise o…
2006 was an absolute bonkers year for new music. Some of our favorite tracks came out as we were sophomores in high school and we ate it up with a knife and a fork and did not want for more
Things re…
Arguments could be made that My Friends Over You, or even New Found Glory in general defined pop-punk as a genre and defined the goofy but not quite fart-punky music video. And trust me, we make thos…
You’re stranded on a deserted island. Your plane went down leaving you stranded with nothing but a Sony Walkman and a shipment of CDs from the years 2000-2010. Why? I don’t know. Shut up…
This desert…
Good Charlotte (more like GREAT Charlotte, amiright? sorry.) had done what very few bands have managed to do, release their debut album with a major label. This record has a bit of everything, but wh…
Bert Poncet, the singer of Chunk! No, Captain Chunk! stops by the talk about the songwriting and recording process of their new album Gone Are The Good Days.
Tom and Bert broke down in detail the rec…
While they may be just on the fringes of what we talk about on the show, The Dangerous Summer are front and center in our hearts. In 2009 the band dropped one of the greatest albums of all time, Reac…
