Description
The Postscript features rambling, off-the-cuff discussions with friends, musicians, writers and artists of all types about 5 records (or songs) they love. You’ll hear some hot and not-so-hot takes, as well as strongly held opinions and harsh criticisms. You’ll also hear much milder opinions along with facts and factual errors of all kinds. But hey, it is all about having fun conversations, as well as discovering new music and old gems, hidden or otherwise.

"There are two kinds of people I don't want to have lunch with..."
Shawn Fosnight and I have known each other for over 30 years. We first met as contributors for Crunchface Fanzine. Later, Shawn and I shared a house with friends, he booked my band for a ton of shows and together we attended many, many more. Shawn has always had a deep and abiding love for skateboarding and music. It made made sense to have him on as a guest.

"Wacky Dee and Stabmaster Arson"
Jeff Jingle is a practical effects artist that has worked on Pacific Rim, The Mandalorian, G.I. Joe: The Rise of Cobra, Captain America: Civil War, Real Steel, Where the Wild Things Are and dozens more. I first met Jeff in the early 90s as the vocalist for the metallic hardcore band Anguish - who released a 7" on Dark Empire Records.
This is another early episode that was lost while I was attempting to find a new host for the podcast. Jeff is one of my oldest friends and I'd be remiss if I didn't republish this one. Enjoy!

"Mr. Mojo Rising IS your huckleberry AND The Lizard King"
Jason Tarulli is a live audio engineer that has toured with and run front of house sound for Courtney Barnett, The Black Keys, Social Distortion, Jewel and a host of others. I've known Jason for nearly 30 years and we frequently DJ together with our buddy Matt. Jason DJs under the "Really Cool DJ" alias as well, spinning rare soul, garage rock and other obscure gems.
This raw audion for this one was recorded three years ago and thought to be lost before I had a chance to publish episode. Fortunately, it turned up for me to share here. Check it out.
"Absolution Rules"
On this episode I sit down with Chris (NCS Podcast) and Rich to talk about some of our favorite underrated seven-inches. Thanks to my technical expertise I lost the first recording of this very topic (apologies to Chicago Will), so this is our second go-around. It was a fun conversation nonetheless.
"In Search of Tracks"
Another one from the vaults. This episode features my buddies Pete Hilton (Down in Flames/Kamikaze) and Bob Shedd (Axe to Grind) from the greatly missed In Search of Tracks podcast. This is a long but very fun conversation. This is part 2 of 2.

"Chris Worm"
This is one from the vaults. Prior to me losing access to my original server, I had a TON of episode and this is one of the earliest.
I've known Chris since 1990(?) from my days with Crunchface Fanzine and his time in Ringworm, but more importantly, Windpipe. Windpipe are far and away my favorite Cleveland hardcore band inspite of their low profile as it relates to their short life and the fact that they never had a proper release. There IS a 7" out there and I'm glad it exists, but it doesn't properly represent how much they truly ripped. In any case, I've been meaning to report this one for a minute and here it is...Again, it is a really early episode so the sound quality might be a bit rough.

"The Newest Drinking Game; 'Saying Dumb' "
Wanna hear three men of a certain vintage have an in depth discussion about a nearly 40 year old record? Wanna hear the word "dumb" repeated ad nauseum because someone doesn't use his Roget's Thesaurus? Well, now is your chance!!!
Rich, Will and I have a sprited discussion about a the controversial second album "Retaliation" by Carnivore.
"Cold Comfort"
Rich, Will and I sat down and talked about the music (old and new) that has helped us cope with our existence within this nightmarish hellscape. Buckle up! We go all over the place on this one!
"Cat Stevens was wrong"
Another year, another 'Best Of' episode. I'm joined by a few of my friends with their thoughts on what music they've enjoyed in 2025.
"Lon Chaney Jr. vs. Blaine Cook"
Rich and I finally sat down for another deep dive. This time I went with an old favorite. Much has been made of the term "crossover" since the term was coined in the mid-1980s. If there was a band that expresses all the the essential feature of the "genre"(?), it would have to be The Accused. Their 3rd album, "Martha Splatterhead's Maddest Stories Ever Told" may have arguably been their best and most well known record. In any case, it is a record that deserves a closer look.
If you're interested, Episode 68 features my interview with The Accused's vocalist, Blaine Cook. You can find that in the feed.
"Ride Like the Wind: The Teddy Riley Story"
Mark Miller is a talented photographer, one of the co-hosts of the long running Nickel City Soundtrack Podcast, as well as the vocalist for the Buffalo based hardcore band Hold Out. This episode is a LONG one, but if one of the more fun conversations I've had on this podcast. We go all over the place with this one!!!

"The Return of the Chicha Vampire Macbre Hustlers"
Silas Hite is an Emmy winning composer that has scored dozens of films and television shows. He recently released and album of Chicha inspired music with his artistic collaborator Derel Zimmerman called "Chicha Macabre". This collaboration has recorded a second soon to be released album called "The Return of the Vampire Hustlers". Silas and I had a fun and rambling conversation that covers a lot of ground, not the least of which how he got started scoring film and TV projects.

"The BIG Shoe"
On October 11 at Musica, The Last Letter Project is putting on their 10th annual Speedbump Fest featuring The Briefs, The Robert Conn Band, Hams and Hell Is Here with DJ Matt Feeney playing records before, after and in between sets. I invited my pal Jaclyn on to talk all about it!
"For the Love of Paco"
Many of you know Paul Bearer as the vocalist/lyricist for the legendary Sheer Terror. But, did you know that Paul is a crate digger extraodinaire with immaculate taste? No? Well, now you do.
In the words of the Immortal Bard, "Check it out".
"The Case of the Missing Bifocals"
Val is the force behind Ignorant People; a zine that is currently 4 issues deep with an eagerly anticipated 5th issue currently being put together as of this writing. Recently, there has been a huge resurgence in traditional print zines and Ignorant People, along with Razorblades and Aspirin is among the best.
Val and I had a fun conversation about Mind Erase, The Inmates and a lot more.
"Our Fight"
Tom Brose was a few years ahead of me and was the bassist for Confront. We hadn't met until recently and we had a really nice talk. We discussed Confront's complicated legacy and setting the record straight. But, more important than that, Tom worked hard to make sure that there was a proper reissue of Confront's 'Pay Day' 7" and their demo via the revived Dark Empire. Both are awesome and are highly recommended.
"Talkin' Slayer (Mostly...)"
My pal DX Ferris returns to talk about the 4th edition of his EXCELLENT book "Slayer - 66 2/3: A Metal Band Biography (Reborn & Re-Remastered Update)".
To me, this is the definitive biography on one of the most important bands in heavy metal. It is a heavy duty tome and you can get it at the links below.

Rest in Power Ozzy. Thank you for everything.
"Mr. Larry Uses His Teacher Voice"
It is time for another deep dive! This time Tim, Mark and I take a look at the discography for the early 90's metallic hardcore band, Mayday. We go in deep and talk about the band's musical progression from 'The Underdark' 7", the split Ep with Integrity, the 'Lost in Sabbath' Ep and their final release 'Staplegun'.
It was fun introducing Mayday to Tim and Marc, as well as visiting their catalog.
