Episode 133 - Night Dangers Interview & Music

Night Dangers. Ever since I heard this band a couple years ago, I’ve been hooked. Then Andrew Philp, the main Night Danger-er, sent me a copy of their soon-to-be-released full length record and whooooooo yeah, it was time for an interview. This Bobcast feautures an interview with Andrew about all kinds of stuff - music, mental health, the Midwest “sound”, who would win in a fight - Prince or Bob Stinson (that’s totally not in this episode besides they’re both dead how fucked do you think I am???) and more! Oh yeah, there are TWO ghost stories in this one as well, one by Andrew, one is a VERY SPECIAL GUEST (Hi Mono!). Music-wise, there’s a brand new Bobcast theme song by What Me Worry? and three Night Dangers songs - “All I Need”, “This Time” and “Let Myself Down Tonight”.

Episode 127 - Airstream Futures Interview

Chicago! Upside down pizza! Hotdogs served with a baseball bat sized pickle! Kayne West? Sears Tower? What else? I say, who gives a rat’s ass about all that other stuff, the best thing outta Chicago since ever is Airstream Futures! This episode is an interview with the band plus two songs - “Brighter Blue” and “Faster Than You Know”. Once you listen to this band’s music, you’ll be hooked, just like me. Plus they’re super fun to drink with and sit around with on a Saturday in the park. I think it was the 4th of July? Ooops. Wrong CHICAGO band. Here’s a link!

Episode 124 - Paranormal Ponderings VI - Series Finale with Mike Damante

Here it is, the long-awaited series finale of the Paranormal Ponderings episodes! We’ve covered paranormal investigating and ghosts, haunted places and haunted history, witchcraft, magic and tarot, cryptids, UFOs and now, we’re going to tie ALL of them together. As much as that’s possible? Here’s a hint - maybe Bigfoot was the inspiration for Chewbacca? Maybe Bigfoot IS Chewbacca? That would be something, wouldn’t it? Well, we’ll dive into the ties that bind the paranormal together, plus religion, super heroes, myths, conciousness and the ever-elusive third eye we all might have. All subjects covered in Mike’s latest paranormal phenomenon of a book, “Stranger Than Fiction”. Which you should read. Music of the episode courtesy of the band Light Years with the spooky love song “I Met You On Halloween” (I don’t know if it’s a spooky song or not, but it sounds like it).

Episode 121 - Mike Wiebe Interview (Riverboat Gamblers, Drakulas)

Mike Wiebe of The Riverboat Gamblers and Drakulas. He’s the tall, good looking one that jumps around and sings in both bands, by the way. Mike sets sail on the WeirdBoat, the Bobcast, to talk about paranormal stuff, his bands and more in this episode. Strange car rides on Santa Fe Baldy in New Mexico, strange lights in the sky in Denton, Texas and a Goatman. And the Goatman’s Bridge. Creepy, spooky and awesomely atrotious stories, in other words. Plus, a retelling by yours truly of one of the many legends that surround Goatman’s Bridge in Denton, Texas. I personally would not visit Goatman’s Bridge. Too scary, especially after I read all about it. Yikes. Music of the episode provided by Drakulas and the Riverboat Gamblers with the songs “Dark Black” and “Don’t Bury Me (I’m Still Not Dead)” respectively. Here are some links!

Episode 119 - The Mike Damante PUNK Interview

Mike Damante won me over a while ago with his “Punk Rock and UFOs” series of books, a mind-blowing series on paranormal weirdness and UFO related wildness. Mike’s latest book, “Hey Suburbia” also won me over - but in a different way. “Hey Suburbia” talks about punk rock, pop-punk and emo of the 1990’s and early 2000’s, mostly. There’s nostalgia, to be sure. But there’s also quite a bit about the course and trajectory of punk rock from those golden days up to the present day. Let me tell you, I listened to a bunch of Jimmy Eat World after I read the book, I cannot tell a lie. But I also looked at the future of punk rock in a different light after reading the book. With more hope, I should say. Well! Mike joins the Bobcast to talk all things PUNK in this episode, from how it all started for him, to answering that age old question - were big punk bands of the 90’s (that were successful) sell-outs? Listen and find out! Also, Michael Crusty stops by with a brand new edition of Crusty’s Corner to talk with Nick from Canadian Rock Wrestling and play a PUNK song by Debt Cemetery. Lastly, War On Women appear in the episode with the song “White Lies”, which was hand picked by Mr. Damante just for this episode! Let’s get PUNK with Mike Damante and freinds!

Episode 118 - Haunted Harmonies with Villa Montezuma and Come Closer

Welcome to the first edition of a new series of Bobcast episodes, simply titled “Haunted Harmonies”. With these episodes, you’ll hear a little bit about the history and haunts of a particular paranormally active location, which is located somewhere in this great big haunted world of ours. Along with the history and haunts, let’s throw a band interview - a short one - into these episodes, because the Bobcast is PUNK. The rule is, the band has to be from the same town or area as the featured haunted location. In this case, we’re talking about San Diego, California’s Villa Montezuma, with the band of the episode being Come Closer. San Diego has a TON of haunted places, but I’m telling you, Villa Montezuma is the King/Queen of the Haunt Heap. Come Closer is likewise the cream of the crop in a sea of amazing bands from San Diego. The tales of strangeness from Villa Montezuma, the interview with J from Come Closer, a song titled “Get It Wrong” by Come Closer, this episode has it ALL.

Episode 117 - Spider Interview with Hector Martinez

The band Spider, from the Los Angeles area, has pulled something off that not many bands have truly been able to do. They’ve taken the sound and the fury of 1980’s LA punk and hardcore and turned it into their own thing. A magical and perfectly punk thing, at that. Don’t think I’m saying the band lives in the past! No, Spider does their own thing, while hearkening back to the glory days of LA punk and hardcore. Hector Martinez, the singer/vocalist of Spider stops by The Bobcast to talk about the band, punk rock stuff, ghosts, UFOs and more! Two songs by Spider are in this episode, “Energy Gone Wrong” and “The Reeperbahn”. Presented by Good Life Digestive Health. Here are some links!

Episode 114 - Pleasant Gehman Interview Part II - Writing and Dancing

Pleasant Gehman returns to The Bobcast with a brand new episode and more stories, more magical mayhem that is the life of the incredible person, the Princess Of Hollywood, Pleasant Gehman! This time around we’re talking about Pleasant’s writing and dancing careers. Pleasant’s been doing both most of her whole life, to great effect. Though she has written mostly non-fiction stories of her life through the years, she’s the first person I’ve heard of that a publisher told “we can’t run this as fiction, it’s too crazy!!!”. That’s the life of Pleasant Gehman in a nutshell. Music of the episode by Screamin’ Sirens and those songs are “I Heard About You” and “Nine Times To Live” off of 1987’s “Voodoo”. Oh! The song “Voodoo” is also soothingly serenading you in the intro and outro background of the episode. Here are some links!

Episode 106 - Alex Botkin Interview (Lavasocks Records, Sarchasm, 924 Gilman St.)

When it comes to East Bay punk stuff, Alex Botkin knows his stuff. As the person behind Lavasocks Records, Alex does his part to keep the history and radness of the East Bay sound alive with releases such as “The Thing That Ate Floyd” comp. “Floyd” originally came out on Lookout! Records back in the stone ages of 1988 and has pretty much every band from the Bay Area of the time on it. An incredible record that Alex felt needed a new lease on life. Coming soon from Lavasocks is a partnership with Sell The Heart Records and a rethinking of Rancid’s classic record, “And Out Come The Wolves”. This version has a much better title, “And Out Come The Lawsuits”. Track by track, “…Lawsuits” features 19 bands covering ALL 19 songs on the original record and WOW. It’s an amazing record! So, Alex and I talk about the records, a little music history of the Bay Area, Gilman Street, Lookout Records, Rancid and more! Music of the episode is two songs of of “Floyd” and “…Lawsuits” - Sweet Baby and Cringer off of Floyd, Danger Inc. and Sarchasm off of Lawsuits.

Episode 101 - No Small Children Interview

No Small Children, the band, the myth, the legend. I first heard No Small Children while looking for a cover of the “Ghostbusters” theme song for a recent episode. The NSC version of the song hit me like a crossed beam hit the Stay-Puft Marshmellow Man. I mean WOW. This band, No Small Children, they are amazing. Three teachers, two of them sisters, a blistering combo of women who simply define the words Rock And Roll. This episode is an interview with No Small Children, plus four of their incredible songs. One of the songs in the episode was writtien for the kids! I think gold stars are in order for the teachers, in this case. Also featured in this episode is a review of the horror film “The Tattooist” by Carolyn Mauricette. Carolyn is the co-host of the Reely Melanted podcast, one of the main foces behind the “Blood In The Snow” film festival, a Rotten Tomatoes apporved film critic, the creator of the “View From The Dark” blog and website and more!

Episode 97 -The Strange Case of the "Lost" Misfit

What would you say if I told you there has been a fifth member of The Misfits out there, hiding under our very noses for the last 40 years - unknown, unloved, unwanted? You might say I’m crazy, but here it is - proof. This episode is part mystery, part detective story and finally, once the mystery is solved, an interview with Dan Ziegler (or Sam Haines), the “lost” Misfit. Dan (Sam) has been quiet these last 40 years and for good reason. The always looming threat of retributuion from Danzing and Jerry Only if they go public? Maybe. Demonic forces and the terror they bring if they came clean? Also a maybe. What I can tell you is this - if you listen, you’ll hear the story of this unfortunate 5th Misfit, but you’ll leave with a little hope. You see, this person turned it around after being removed from the band and has started their own empire of food and drinks. You’ll have to listen to the episode for more details, I don’t want to have “All Hell Break Loose” by giving you all the details here and now! You’ll also hear parts of three tracks that the lost Misfit blared and blazed some saxaphone on, that missed the final cut of “Walk Among Us”, which are “20 Eyes”, “Skulls” and “I Turned Into A Martian”. Unreleased! Unheard in 40 years! RARE RARE RARE!!! You heard it here on the Bobcast first, folks! I even threw in four Misfits covers for good measure by Shades Apart, Rebecca Lorna, Mikey & His Uke and Entombed! Good lord, this one is amazing. Aaaand, there is a brand new Crusty’s Corner featuring Val Knox of The Anti-Queens and Black Cat Attack, talking music, Misfits and More! Here some links and other fun stuff!

Episode 96 - The Grant Lawrence Interview (The Smugglers, Lookout! Zoomout!)

Grant Lawrence is a venn diagram gone horribly, horribly wrong. Where do you start with this guy? Grant is the singer of Canadian Crazies The Smugglers. He’s a radio and podcast personality for the Canadian Broadcast Corp. Books? Grant has written them and even has a children’s book on the way in late 2021. What else? Oh yeah! Grant and The Smugglers were on the Lookout! Records roster during the “Golden Years” of both Lookout! and pop-punk in general. So, Grant decided to reunite some of his labelmates for a series of Lookout! Records based livestreams that feature music, conversation and fun! What a great thing, these Lookout! Zoomout! streams are for a covid weary world. Interested in hearing more? Good, because this episode is a conversation with Grant where we talk about all of this and more! Three songs by The Smugglers are also featured in this episode - “Death At Disneyland”, “Rosie” and “Buddy Holly Convention”. Tune in and get awesome with Grant Lawrence! Here are some links!

Skoops is a very interesting person. He is an avid skateboarder, surfer and musician. Skoops is my friend. Skoops is also a black man.

We talk about growing up skating, surfing and playing music, plus much more. The songs of the episode are by bands that Skoops has been involved in through the years, the bands Bertos and Floor Notes.
