Episode #21: The History of Pop-Punk
Description
After reluctantly taking a five month break, Dov is back to his rambling ways as he somewhat chronologically covers nearly 40 years of Pop-Punk history. After spending way too much time talking about 70s Punk, he discusses a few important underground bands with funny names before identifying and detailing the five most important years in the development of Pop-Punk as a mainstream subgenre. He then is joined by his good friend, Alex, who is disgusted by Dov’s omission of one very important Pop-Punk band in the monologue portion of the episode.
Side note, virtually every song mentioned in the episode is featured on the playlist linked above.
