Send in your music story! Ever watch a stranger melt down in public and wonder what the right response should be? We start with a jaw-dropping Walmart story—complete with aisle-side outrage and a hero repeating “why are you mad?”—and turn it into a bigger conversation about empathy, language barriers, and how to keep your dignity when everything feels loud. No lectures, just honest debate about patience, translation apps, and the tiny choices that make life easier for everyone. From there, w...
Send in your music story! A birthday crown, a Charizard Loungefly, and a brand‑new Switch 2 set the stage for a wild ride through shiny hunts, DLC megas, and the strange magic of pacing a game you love. We get honest about Pokemon Legends ZA: the fun of guaranteed shinies, the feel of the world, and why the journey beats the postgame grind. Then the bombshells: DLC teases with Mega Chimecho, Mega Basculegion‑style reveals, Lucario Z, and a level cap blasting past 100 for the first time in 30 ...
Send in your music story! A church kid with a four-year-old’s guitar and a head full of melodies grows into an artist who threads love, doubt, and faith into a tight, modern pop record—this conversation with Ryan Woods brings that journey to life.

Send in your music story! Ever want to throw a bag in the car, leave the stale routine behind, and floor it toward something that feels alive again? That’s the pulse beating through our conversation with Beth from A New Violet—a rock vocalist with a punk heart—fresh off the electricity of Warped Tour and deep in the craft of songs that move fast, hit hard, and actually say something. We dive into 66, a highway anthem that doubles as a personal dare: escape the four walls, grab the person who...
Send in your music story! A metal icon noticed them first, but the story gets louder from there. We’re sitting with Chained Saint—teens with vintage swagger and modern force—unpacking how a Halford nod, a garage education, and a ruthless love of riffs turned into songs that hit like a live amp. We get into the DNA of their sound: Sepultura’s gravity, Pantera’s bite, and that Rush sheen hiding in the chorusy leads. Ethan breaks down a no-frills rig built around a JCM 800, Tube Screamer punch,...
Send in your music story! The volume’s up and the lane’s wide open: Like Ghosts return with a sound that folds bright synths into crunching guitars and somehow makes heartbreak feel like a victory lap. We sit down to map the jump from viral covers to original anthems, unpack why Wish You The Best leans further into pop and EDM without losing its punch, and trace the throughline that connects Better Now to the band’s next chapter. On tour, the new cuts didn’t just work—they ignited the room. ...
Send in your music story! A new studio, a baby in a duck costume, and a camera with a mind of its own—our fourth annual Halloween special brings joyful chaos and a whole lot of heart.

Jelly Roll goes from bit to genuine respect, and our Eminem debate moves from the Slim Shady era to the lyric craftsmanship of Stan and Mockingbird. We also revisit Avril Lavigne’s early ...
Send in your music story! A name that sounds like a solo act but moves like a band: Lauren Nicole joins us to unpack how a family-first rock project found its voice in 90s alt grit, pop clarity, and the kind of bridges that turn songs into memories. From kicking in the womb to Springsteen’s beat to taking the stage at eleven, Lauren’s path blends fearless beginnings with a modern, DIY engine—co-producing with her drummer husband, Jim, and partnering with veteran producer Dick Hodgin to drop j...
Send in your music story! A new logo, a crowded week, and a sprint from the gym set the stage for a sharp left turn: what happens when a customer snaps their fingers like you’re the help? We unpack the small humiliations of service work, the weirdness of tip culture, and the simple grace of eye contact and patience. Then we pivot to pure joy: a full review of The Dome in Virginia Beach—parking that actually works, fast entry, immersive lighting on every level, and a surprise P.O.D. set that j...
