๐ค The Menzingers
โฐ Joe and Tom are back talking about a couple of Tomโs picks. The album is one of his faves and a pleasant surprise for Joe. Itโs the 2019 release from heartland rockers The Menzingers. Their sound blends classic and punk rock and will leave you feeling good throughout the whole listen. Lyrically, they touch upon the ups and downs of a breakup and the ensuing growth. Joe and Tom equate the flow to the 5 stages of grief and enlightens deep discussions. While they fight back tears, they drink Arnold Palmer Spiked, which obviously has a familiar taste but an improved alcoholic spike from past tries. Get comfy for this drop, you wonโt regret it.

๐ค Foo Fighters
โฐ Joe has returned to his hosting chair alongside Tom and, to ease his way back in after his hiatus, Joe pickedโฆyou guessed it, Tribus and Foo Fighters! The Foos Saint Cecilia EP, released in 2015, is a 5-song quick rocker and a very easy listen. Recorded over the course of 2 weeks in an Austin hotel of the same name, the EP features a surprisingly wide variety of styles for such a short release. To drink, the guys crack open Tribusโ first ever hard seltzer. The inaugural flavor, Mango Peach, features real fruit purรฉe, as will future flavors. For more on the seltzer, we hear from one of Tribusโ co-founders, Matt Weichner. We also get the tea on why and how Tom *accidentally* blocked Joe. Get to listeninโ!ย
