"Hey ladies, what's up?"

"What kind of pick up line is that?" "What did he say?" "OMG, I can't believe it!" "Ew, look at his hair!" "Band guys are so lame!" "Why's he staring at us?" "Ew, what is he wearing?"

"Ok... so can I call you?"

We've said it once, and we'll say it again, when it comes to the big 4 of pop-punk, New Found Glory have their spot solidified. They also really got it right re-recording 'Hit or Miss', and we all know Scottie likes a good re-record if you're putting the same song on another album.

So let me tip my glass to you, as we toast the night away to friends, and forget about tomorrow!

In this episode we enter the confessional booth..

"Bless me Father, for I have sinned.. I think tonight I'll take the long way"

Dashboard Confessional was the first singer-songwriter that we connected with. 'The Swiss Army Romance' is an entire album so full of heart and classic sing-alongs, Chris Carrabba was dubbed 'The King Of Pain' for all the right reasons.

The pastor is in, so gather around because church is in session.

What's the D-D-D-Dillio everyone?! In this episode we are wasting some time on MEST.

We go back to the drawing board when Tony Lovato and the guys from South Chicago officially crashed the mainstream party. "Wasting Time" became the soundtrack for those long days at school, long nights with your friends, and especially for smoking a bong or two!

What would you say is your most overplayed song, or album? For a lot of people, Bleed American by Jimmy Eat World might fall victim to that, but for all the right reasons. These songs need to be heard!

We ask, can an album with song writing this good, with this much emotional honesty, really be overplayed? Maybe it deserves to be.

(apologies, Scottie's mic got a little interference around the end, please bear with us:)

This episode is for every kid who ever got picked last in gym class.. To every kid who never had a date to no school dance.. To everyone who's ever been called a freak (this is for you).

Its another self-titled debut album by another set of brothers. Good Charlotte was the glue that connected As Night Falls together, the band you hear in the intro and outro of each episode. Lots of funny lyrics, but we love these Madden Brothers. GC FOREVER.

"How deep is YOUR love?!"

When was the last time you body surfed, or were on stage at a show? That's the heavy topic when discussing an old favourite such as Goldfinger.

This band has been a part of our lives for as long as we've been going to shows as a regular pastime. This album is still a go-to for both of us, and stands as one of our all time favourite self-titled debut releases.

Welcome to the Lit Lounge!

We take a dive into Lit's second studio album "A Place In The Sun". A true classic, but is it a pop-punk classic? That's debatable, but it still holds up to this day.. at least for one of us.

In this episode, we go over what this podcast is all about. We discuss some of our favourite albums from 2025, and what we look forward to in 2026. Also the big debate on "who are the BIG FOUR in pop-punk?", and a peak into some of the first punk shows we attended.
