This week, Tyler and John question where the podcast goes from here. They also break down Mark Zuckerberg and T-Pain teaming up for a baffling remake of "Get Low," The Goo Goo Dolls and Dashboard Confessional touring together, and My Chemical Romance announcing a massive North American tour for 2025...and managing to enrage fans in the process. (Ticketmaster, we’re looking at you!) 

We also discuss rumors of new Oasis music, All Time Low being cleared of allegations, Jelly Roll accusing Charli XCX of chart rigging, and Spitalfield making a comeback. Drama, nostalgia, and chaos—just another day in music news!

Tyler rides solo for this week's episode, but continues with the Spooky Season theme. And what better way to continue it than by talking about the band that brings the spooky vibes: My Chemical Romance. Did you know My Chemical Romance recorded the highly successful ‘The Black Parade’ album in a haunted mansion called The Paramour Estate? And, apparently, they ALL  had some really creepy and messed up experiences while they were there. The experiences were so messed up that it led to members of the band leaving the house well before schedule, forcing them to find a new studio to record and finish the album. Well, here's that story.

This episode was originally published on 10/18/21.

It's officially Spooky Season, so Bailey and Tyler thought it would be appropriate to discuss and explain the wild conspiracy theory that Avril Lavigne is dead and was replaced by a look-alike actress named Melissa Vandella. Crazy, right? This conspiracy has lived on since 2005 but gained a ton of traction when details came out in 2011. Listen to them explain the ins and outs of the whole theory and at the theory's conclusion, they decide whether they believe the conspiracy is true or not.

This is a special episode where we talk to fans of the music scene, get to know them a bit more as fans of music, and dive into what they do for a living.

This week, we talk to one of you, Dr. Tom, a podiatrist (foot doctor) and a fan of the scene. Dr. Tom is a supporter of the show and (full disclosure) a long-time friend of both Tyler and John, as well as Tyler's personal foot doctor. Before moving into music-related topics, the boys interview the doctor about his work by asking him all kinds of questions, from sawing off feet to the worst feet he's seen to his craziest experiences while practicing podiatry. Tommy also shares his favorite bands, best concerts, a wild concert story, the most he's paid for a single concert ticket, and what albums and tours he's looking forward to most in 2024. To wrap it up, Dr. Tom turns the tables and asks the hosts about the most embarrassing concert they've attended.

In this episode, Tyler and John discuss how artists are gaming the Billboard charts in the lamest way possible to boost rankings. They express frustration with these strategies and question the credibility of chart achievements, particularly regarding the dominance of certain artists like Sum 41, blink-182, Drake, and Taylor Swift. This conversation leads to a discussion about today's potential influence of payola and streaming manipulation. The boys then shift their focus to Spotify rolling out music videos to its platform and whether or not it should be seen as a threat to YouTube. Finally, they round out the episode by discussing one iconic artist's unenthusiastic decision to return to Spotify.

This week on Unplugged, Tyler and John dive headfirst into this week's news and a handpicked topic to debate.

• Sum 41 dethrones Blink-182! After 22 years, Sum 41 blasts back to the top of the charts with their song "Landmines," knocking Blink-182's "One More Time" out of the No.1 spot on Billboard's Alternative Airplay Chart. Are we surprised?
• Hardcore band fires singer... for estrogen? In a story that's sure to leave you scratching your head, Tyler and John unpack the bizarre tale of a hardcore band firing their vocalist for allegedly dosing the bassist with estrogen. Is this real? We use ChatGPT to find out.
• Why do we think pop punk is no longer "mainstream'? Pop punk (and emo) have seen a resurgence of sorts over the last couple of years. With only a select few artists hitting the mainstream during that time, why has pop punk failed to stay?

On this week's episode, we review Green Day's latest single "One Eyed Bastard" and how the opening riff sounds like a rip-off of P!nk's 2008 hit "So What". We then move to news about Rage Against The Machine breaking up and Paramore dropping off of their headlining ALTer Ego Fest performance and what that means for the band. Tyler and John have some fun and wild speculation about what is going on there. Finally, we round things out with how you can officially apply to be Smashing Pumpkins’ “additional” guitarist, and how one fan hit a world record with 43 Metallica tattoos which leads to John explaining his one and only very odd tattoo in an obscure location.

This week, we cover killer whales' indifference to metal music while attacking boats and The Hives' possibly accidental ingenious move to 'franchise' their brand for cover bands. We also talked about Billie Joe Armstrong's explanation for Green Day's avoidance of political music. Then there was news about MGK contemplating changing his name, so we asked ChatGPT to come up with some new names he should go by. Somewhere in all of this we also pick who we'd rather marry: Britney Spears or Christina Aguilera.

This week, When We Were Young Fest announced their 2024 emo lineup. This time it was with an emphasis on bands playing their respective iconic album in full. However, social media noticed there was one glaring issue with the lineup: it heavily lacked a female presence. With social media ablaze, When We Were Young Fest suddenly entered damage control and started announcing new bands to the lineup... and those new bands all happened to be female-fronted groups. So what say you? Do you think When We Were Young Fest messed up and are now trying to save face? This episode has us debating these exact questions.

Elsewhere in the episode, we discuss Charlotte Sands' new song "pity", Green Day having a good week, and Spotify's new royalty payment policy that probably isn't as bad as most initially thought.

Tyler rides solo for this week's episode of The All Punked Up Podcast but continues with the Spooky Season theme. And what better way to continue it than by talking about the band that brings the spooky vibes: My Chemical Romance. Did you know My Chemical Romance recorded the highly successful ‘The Black Parade’ album in a haunted mansion called The Paramour Estate? And, apparently, they ALL  had some really creepy and messed up experiences while they were there. The experiences were so messed up that it led to members of the band leaving the house well before schedule forcing them to find a new studio to record and finish the album. Well, here's that story.

This episode was originally published on 10/18/21.

It's officially Spooky Season, so Bailey and Tyler thought it would be appropriate to discuss and explain the wild conspiracy theory that Avril Lavigne is dead and was replaced by a look-alike actress named Melissa Vandella. Crazy, right? This conspiracy has lived on since 2005 but gained a ton of traction when details came out in 2011. Listen to them explain the ins and outs of the whole theory and at the theory's conclusion, they decide whether they believe the conspiracy is true or not.
