#218: The Methadones
Saturday Jul 02, 2022
Saturday Jul 02, 2022
It's been 15 years since The Methadones released their beloved pop punk classic album, This Won't Hurt. To celebrate, Red Scare Industries has released the record on vinyl for the first time. This past June, I was able to bring Connie's Pizza to Dan, Pete, Simon, and Mike before their performance at T1 Fest at Reggies in Chicago. We had a blast talking the re-release of This Won't Hurt and whether their is a difference between melodic punk and pop punk. Shoutout to Katie Hovland for setting up the conversation!

#215: The Aquadolls
Thursday Apr 21, 2022
Thursday Apr 21, 2022
This is a monumental episode of Pop-Punk & Pizza! Why you ask? Because we had vegan pizza for the very first time! The Aquadolls from southern California are all about rockin' the vegan lifestyle. So, I made sure to order an all vegan pan pizza from Kitchen 17 in Chicago. It was incredibly tasty and I've been dreaming about it ever since. This was recorded before The Aquadolls show at Beat Kitchen in Chicago on Sunday, April 3rd. You can catch them on tour this summer with Incubus and Sublime with Rome July 24th through September 3rd! Get your tickets at the-aquadolls.com/tour
This episode of Pop-Punk & Pizza is sponsored by Austrian pop punk band, Here For A Reason, and their new album, Blank Slate, available now on all streaming platforms.
