Kyle Kinane has been on the show a few times, and it is always enjoyable. He is a very smart funny man who also partakes in and enjoys the music of punk. His style is influenced by the Chicago Punk Movement. We talk about Japan, Our aversion to Pranks, Travel, and Aging as a Comedian and coming off Hiatus, plus more of course!

204: Dan Vapid of Sludgeworth and The Cheats has been my friend since the late 80s.  We have been through a lot together and apart.  And it was nice to chat with him about Sludgeworth, The Cheats, What's up next, The Postal Service and the status of mail, and the Northwest Suburbs of Chicago.

Episode 200: Mass Giorgini is a Producer, Mixing & Mastering Engineer, Musician from bands such as Squirtgun, Screeching Weasel, and Common Rider.  Jughead and Mass have been friends since the late 80s.  That's a long time.  And their catchups are always sprawling, referential, and we believe fun and interesting.  Give it a listen.
