  • I like it. Cool concept, likeable hosts. It's a little weird that they don't always seem previously familiar with the material. Is that the point? Enjoyable whatever the case.

  • My favorite music podcast

    I’ve been listening to Justin and Dylan now for a few years, and this is easily my #1 most listened to podcast. Random picks from every tiny branch and deep root of punk. Honest opinions, not jerks, smart, and funny. Also, for $10 they’ll devote an episode to your favorite record. An incredible bargain.

  • I really don’t want to re-rewrite my review .

    I don’t listen to a lot of podcasts these days but wanted a punk one that was not interviews. Punk Lotto fits the bill. It’s refreshing to hear viewpoints on punk from people a decade or so younger than myself even if I don’t agree with their review. I’m somewhere in the 2019s now and will continue to listen if they keep churning them out.

    Update: 2021: I’ve made it to where the format has changed so I felt like I needed to redo my review. Having the guest pick the album has been a great forma... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Horsebox by Leatherface with Chris MacDonald
Q: What made you choose Horsebox for us to talk about?
It's hard to be subjective when talking about what my favorite album from 2000 is because I am just emotionally, my heartstrings are attached to that album.
Horsebox by Leatherface with Chris MacDonald
Q: What for the listener, how would you describe this book?
I would say it's part travelogue, part unofficial biography, atypical biography, and maybe just some insight into a band that a lot of people love.
Magnified by Failure
Q: Do you have a history with the band Failure?
The guest shares they first listened to Failure around 2015 during the band's reunion, acknowledging their importance but admitting they didn't become a regular listener.
