This week, I’m hanging out with Jaret Reddick, the lead singer, guitarist, and all-around creative engine behind Bowling For Soup, as he looks back on three decades of pop-punk chaos, catchy hooks, and perfectly timed humor.

FYI:

👉🏼 Approx. 1,500–2,500 album streams = the same revenue as 1 CD.

👉🏼 Approx. 3,000–5,000 album streams = the same revenue as 1 vinyl LP.

👉🏼 Approx. 4,000–6,000 album streams = the same revenue as 1 t-shirt.

Keep that in mind the next time you debate buying band merch! Support the art you love!

This needs to be on your New Music Friday playlist this week! Sean's been a guest on the show several times and has a great catalog of tunes.

This is such a chill & mellow holiday listen. I just snagged my digital copy, and you should too! 🙌🏼

In a year I took a significant amount of time away from the podcast after losing my father, to say I was surprised to see this year's Spotify Wrapped would be an understatement. 🤯

To anyone who's EVER listened (no matter where), thank you from the bottom of my heart. 🙏🏼🤘🏼
December 5, 2025 at 2:10 AM
Yes. Yes, I most certainly do. If anyone was wondering what I'd like for Christmas...problem solved! 🙌🏼

In this mixtape moment: Paul Williams talks about recording "Rainbow Connection" with Jim Henson, as well as Kermit the Frog's significance to the song's final recording. 🌈

Getting to talk to the songwriter of my favorite song of all time is something I'll forever cherish. 🙏🏼

I'll never forget being lucky enough to see 'The Muppet Movie' opening night in the theater.
Hearing 'The Rainbow Connection' you just KNEW it was a Paul Williams gem. First sheet music I ever bought. 😁🌈
This week, we’re celebrating two timeless soundtrack classics with the legendary Paul Williams award-winning songwriter behind Emmet Otter’s Jug-Band Christmas and The Muppet Movie, including the beloved classic "Rainbow Connection.”

This isn't an ordinary CD copy of Heart's "The Road Home." I was finally able to track down a the Japanese import, that features "Never" from the same show!

I love snagging import CDs with extras! 🤓💿🤘🏼

Yes, I still collect physical media.

No, I don't feel like an old man yelling at a cloud doing so.

Plus, how hilarious was Let It Ride? 😂

Passing Down the Playlist: How My Father Shaped My Love of Music Through 20 Songs
This week, in the spirit of Thanksgiving, I’m reflecting on the songs that shaped my love of music — as well as the person who made it all possible, my father, who we sadly lost to pancreatic cancer earlier this year. In this episode, I’m diving into 20 tracks that I’m eternally grateful & thankful for. Each one is tied to a moment, memory, lesson, or simply a staple of the famed “Friday Night Music Night” events I would enjoy with my parents growing up.

The new Aerosmith / Yungblud collaboration EP "One More Time" is the best thing Aerosmith has done since "Nine Lives."

Fun EP, and wouldn't mind hearing more from this pairing down the road! 🤘🏼

Last night I recorded an interview with Eric Hirshberg, the former Activision CEO who's now a full-time musician. It was a fascinating music discussion, that also dives into some of the (ahem) "pitfalls" of social media. 😏

Available 11/28 on Patreon & 12/5 on the main feeds!
