Episode 280: The Story of Mac the RI Ska Kid

It's an interview episode! We talk briefly about the below Web Coulier (sent in by Classy Chad Kafka), an email from Eric Maksood about *his* ideal blink-182 set, then dive into a long talk with music promoter Mac Prior. Mac used to wrestle. Mac toured with bands. Mac has been putting on RI Ska and Punk shows for 10 years. He and Chuck talk about how the scene has changed over the years, and share some fun memories of shows they worked together on or saw. Also - does Chuck have any new tumors to speak of? Listen in for the announcement! A fun time is had by all!

Episode 266: The Jungle Book, Adam Sandler Stand-Up, and Soundoff's CD Release Show

This episode finds Eric Maksood in the studio with us. We talk about the past few weeks of our lives. But first, a fun conversation about Finding Dory being shown with Finding Nemo, then we (unintentionally?) taunt Maksood by talking about the Playstation 4-exclusive Uncharted 4 and how great it is. We review a Norm MacDonald stand-up show, then talk about a new favorite eatery in Providence. We discuss Ferris Bueller and which character is Chuck and which is Brad. We talk about the new NOFX book, then take a deep breath and dive into a thorough discussion of the recent iteration of "The Jungle Book." Maksood brings a lot of knowledge to the table, which is good. He also brings his Christopher Walken impression...less good. Chuck talks about his trip to see Tell 'Em Steve-Dave in Brooklyn, then he and I discuss our stand-up sets from a few weeks ago. We talk about going to see Adam Sandler live and what a crazy set it was. We talk about our Memorial Day activities, then thoroughly discuss the recent CD release show from Maksood's (other) band, Soundoff. A fun episode!

Episode 153: The Story of Eric and Soundoff

It's our second "big interview" podcast, as Chuck and Brad delve deep into the twisted(?) mind of Eric Maksood, lead singer of local band Soundoff. Before we get to all that, though, we get updates on Soundoff's upcoming show, a Brad performance update, and some news from Senior Discount courtesy of Chuck. The boys then wax ecstatic about the possibilities of the new Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles trailer, then talk about an April Fool's Day prank perpetrated ON Chuck, that affected him extremely emotionally.
The interview itself starts with a lot of background on Maksood's...uh...background in music. What songs/instruments motifs influenced him? How did that lead to him forming a band? Hear about the lows and highs of his journey through the Rhode Island music scene with refreshing candor and honesty! And also pretty much every band name he's ever encountered!
