A punk podcast where old punks discuss punk and hardcore movies in a very punk way. We ridicule filmmakers for their limited knowledge of punk canon, their corny and sentimental affinity for regional scenes, and their technical ineptitude -- but we also praise the few that "rise above" (wink wink). And we'd love for you to join us, but please consider yourself warned, 'cause we're "bringin' da noise, bringin' da punk!"

    HYPE!: Grunge Is Just a Label, But We Use It

    Hey there, DTD-ers!  We've got a fun one for you this week.  And by that we mean our episode, not the movie.  The movie is HYPE and it's about grunge.  OOF!  But don't fret; as you know, from pain comes great art.  So here at DTD headquarters we have been working hard on a new play to commemorate and elevate this painful experience.  Here's a bit from the third act, for your enjoyment. Pete: Grunge.  Do you know what Grunge is?  It's the thousand flannels of Cobain's enemies, a story we agree to tell each other over and over, until we forget that it's a lie. Geoff: But what do we have left, once we abandon the lie?  Chaos?  A gaping pit waiting to swallow us all. Matt:  Chaos isn't a pit.  It's a ladder.  Many who try to climb it fail and never get to try again.  The fall breaks them.  And some are given a chance to climb.  They refuse, they cling to the realm or the gods of classic rock or punk.  Illusions.  Only the ladder is real.  The climb is all there is. Sounds awesome, right?  So go ahead and give it a listen NOW!!!

    PISTOL, Tracks 5 & 6: The ESSENTIAL Collection

    Glad tidings, DTD-heads!  It's.  Really.  Happening.  We're wrapping up our PISTOL-watch with a special double-stuffed episode in which we discuss "tracks" 5 and 6.  It's very exciting -- so much so that we understand  you might have a hard time handling the news.  In fact, we heard a rumor that Queen Elizabeth (who's been a fan ever since we started the PISTOL recaps) was so surprised that she literally dropped dead!!!  Unfortunately, we have no way to verify the rumor.  Nevertheless, it's a fun episode: we play some games, we reminisce on our favorite memories from classic PISTOL episodes, we get a little Q-Anon-y with it, and (spoiler alert) some of us even come all the way around on the show.  It's a real late summer/early fall miracle.  But we don't want to say which of us comes around.  Or why he/they come around.  And we definitely don't want to say how the rest of us respond to that "who" and that "why."  We want you to experience us for yourself, in all our glorious we-ness.  So what are you waiting for?!  Pull the trigger (metaphorically speaking, or course) and start listening NOW!

    MINUTEMEN: We Jam Econo (The Truffaut Cut)

    Quoi de neuf, DTD-ers!  This week, we're coming at you paradox style!  And that means 1) we feature Tim Irwin's WE JAM ECONO 2) in a conversation that is orchestrated by our own Matt Truffaut.  But how can this be?  How can we mix the MINUTEMEN'S working class punk jams with Mr. Truffaut's aesthetic elitism?  The answer: carefully!  The other answer: we see no conflict between the MINUTEMEN'S blue collar body music and Matt's super sophisticated editorial choices.  Wait?  What?  Why? How?  Bc we know that class doesn't determine quality, and vice versa.  That's why we called this episode a paradox, and not a contradiction.  See!  You're getting it!  Just take baby steps and forgive yourself when you make mistakes.  When things get confusing, just remember: listen to this episode.  NOW!

    PISTOL, Track 4: The Beginning of the End

    Hey there, DTD-ers!  As you're probably already aware, this is a PISTOL week.  There's nothing else we can really say about that.  These are the circumstances that we all -- you, the listener, and us, the hosts -- find ourselves in.   And remember, this is our collective choice, which means that the effort to get through the entire PISTOL series remains, if nothing else, a testament to our shared strength and commitment.  We praise you for that, dear listeners, although we, here at DTD home base, have to admit that our resolve is weakening, and we might be cracking up.  Lo!  It is in times like these that we return to the poets to remind us of the strength that we can muster: "Faith, you know you're gonna live through the rain/ Lord, you got to keep the faith/ Faith, don't you let your love turn to hate/ Right now we've got to keep the faith/ Faith, keep the faith, keep the faith/ Try to hold on, trying to hold on/ Yeah" - John Francis Bongiovi, Jr.

    WHAT AWAITS US: A BEYOND STORY (AKA, "They did it once, they're dewing it again")

    How goes there, DTD-ers?  This is a good week.  For one, we are NOT discussing an episode of Pistol.  Second, and more importantly, we have the opportunity to discuss Kevin Egan's WHAT AWAITS US: A BEYIND STORY, which is - pleasant surprise - NOT about the vegetarian meat substitute, and is instead about his legendary hardcore band, BEYOND.  The film is more than that, too, although we're not gonna tell you what that "more" is; the only way you're gonna find out is to listen to the episode (and, of course, watch Egan's film).  And while we're on the topic of telling you about things that we aren't telling you about because we want you to listen to the episode, let us also not tell you to keep listening AFTER the outro to hear additional, secret content.  That's right, we're not saying anything!  You're gonna have to listen for yourself to discover that we talk (for too long!) about a recent, and kind of silly, Brooklyn Vegan article.  So you should just DO THE WORK!  NOW!

    PISTOL, Track 3: How the Miniseries Kills

    Hey there DTD-heads.  If you can hear this, there may still be time.  Please help us.  We've fallen into a Pistol pit, and we can't get out. At first, we thought someone might come and find us, and help us out.  But it's been three episodes now, and we're starting to feel like this is our fate.  The nights are so cold!  The story is so uninteresting!  There doesn't even seem to be any point to it all!  H! E! L! P!  All that said, Matt does seem to be coming around on the series, so the candle of hope still burns.  But is that hope for naught?  Is it all just a Little Match Girl kinda sitch?  Listen NOW to find out!  What are you waiting for?!?!?!

    BAD BRAINS: A BAND IN DC [that’s the full name of the movie, which is a better pun than what we could come up with, so we’re just gonna go with that (ALL OF THE ABOVE IS THE FULL NAME OF THE EPISODE)]

    Welcome back DTDers!  This week, we’ve got some bad news/good news for you.  The bad news first: we’re not giving you another PISTOL recap… yet.  The good news: we’re discussing the only thing that might be more punk than PISTOL  — that’s right, it’s BAND IN DC, the Bad Brains documentary.  We know we say this often, but this doc is a really good one.  Maybe one of the best.  But then why doesn't pitchfork, entertainment weekly, or the nytimes have it in their top 10 punk docs lists?  Good question.  It’s an issue we address in the ep, along with a number of other pressing concerns.  But we‘re not giving ANYTHING else away.  You gotta strap on your motorcycle helmet, sit down calmly on your couch, press play on the play icon on your favorite podcast provider, and FIND OUT FOR YOURSELF!

    PISTOL, "Track 2": PMA for the PRF

    Fair warning, DTD-ers: "lasciate ogne speranza voi ch'intrate."  And you know what that means; we're picking up where we left off with the Danny Boyle directed Sex Pistols mini-series, PISTOL.  This week, we discuss "track" 2, and (SPOILER ALERT) we don't think it's very good -- although Matt might be coming around on the show.  In any event, just because the show doesn't rock, doesn't mean we can't!  In other words, this episode of DTD shreds!  We brutaly riff on not just PISTOL, but also on pop punk cover bands, our favorite new game show ("Is it Punk?"), pop punk cover bands, what counts as exceptional dialogue, and pop punk cover bands.  So what are you waiting for?!  You've heard the rest, NOW listen to the best.  That's us, btw.
