The Throwback Podcast

EVERCLEAR -Sparkle & Fade

Five years into this ungodly podcast experiment known as The Throwback Pod, Bob and Dan are finally ready to swim out past the breakers and watch the world die. Before they go, they're going to revisit one of Bob's absolute favorite albums of the 1990's, Everclear's major label debut Sparkle & Fade. Sounds like heaven to me.

JUNE 2000 - Modern Rock Countdown

Papa Roach. Eminem. A Perfect Circle. STP... it can ONLY be The Year 2000. The Bosom Buddies have reunited in the nü garage just so they can travel back in time twenty-two years to see what all the cool kids were listening to during modern rock's dark ages. This is our last resort.

ARCADE FIRE - The Suburbs

They may not be in the garage and they're certainly not on TikTok, but Dan and Bob ARE BACK with an all new episode. This week, our suburban-raised heroes are rockin' The Suburbs, Arcade Fire's Grammy Award Winning masterpiece. If you have any issues with that, please address them to The Throwback Podcast's Office of Corrections / Department Of Go Fuck Yourself.

FOO FIGHTERS - A Retrospective [Taylor’s Version]

On March 25, 2022 the world was shocked to learn Foo Fighters drummer Taylor Hawkins had passed away at the age of 50. For over 20 years he was Dave Grohl's right hand man, playing drums for alt-rock's most famous drummer, and amassing millions of fans around the world. Looking back at the Foo's past two decades of mega hits and successes, Bob and Dan share their favorite songs from The Taylor Era, dig into the band that was selling out arenas and winning Grammys while they were still looking for 'the next big thing',  and speculate about what comes next for this century's biggest rock and roll band.
 

ARCTIC MONKEYS - Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not

In 2006 the Arctic Monkeys burst onto the scene with a debut album that got the world talking. EVERYONE was ready to hand Alex Turner & Co. the keys to the kingdom... everyone except Bob and Dan. Were the lads from Sheffield worthy of the hype? Did they have what it takes? And was it even OKAY that they were shattering Oasis' records? In this long-anticipated episode, the boys unpack their feelings about the Monkeys... in their trademark "we weren't prepared for this at all" way.

FEBRUARY ’92 - Top 10 Countdown

If you've ever sought out a podcast that talks about Shanice, Nirvana, Mr. Big, MJ, and Tevin Campbell... well, #1, you're a weirdo, and #2, today's your lucky day. Let's go back 30 years to February 1992, a much simpler, happier time with fewer concrete partitions. You'll get it.

COUNTING CROWS - This Desert Life

The garage: open. The Tito's: flowing. The speakers: blasting 1999's TDL by the Counting Crows. Yeah... the Throwback Podcast is back! Join us in the nü garage as Bob and Dan dig into the 3rd LP by Adam Durtiz's band of merry(?) men and ask the big questions. Like, how does it hold up? Is "Hangin' Around" good? Does Dan secretly hate the piano? And did the Crows invent Dad Rock for Guys Who Aren't Dads Yet? The Bosom Buddies also pay their respects to the dearly departed Meatloaf.

THROWBACK TO THE FUTURE IV - 2021

You didn't think we'd let 2021 end without our annual Throwback To The Future recap episode, did you? Let's shake the dust off this thing and see what happens.

JIMMY EAT WORLD - Bleed American

Hey, don't write yourself off yet- the Throwback Podcast is back with Jimmy Eat World's platinum 2001 LP, Bleed American. Come for the Celebration Of Life playlist, stay for the 9/11 stories, and stick around for a pretty big announcement. But don't worry, everything, everything will be all right, all right.

PRINCE - Purple Rain w/Jason Zumwalt

Dearly beloved, we have gathered here today to get through this thing called life. With 25 million copies sold, Purple Rain is one of the best selling albums EVER. So naturally, the boys in the garage needed backup for this very special episode. Enter: Jason Zumwalt. Let's go crazy and see -- once and for all -- if Bob and Dan have it in them to transform into Prince fans.
