About this episode:

In this episode of Pop-Punk Book Club, the boys rewind the clock to Millencolin’s Pennybridge Pioneers—the Swedish skate punk classic that soundtracked a zillion Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater sessions. They revisit their personal history with the record, including the infamous rating disaster from five years ago.

Also in this episode: Sam gifts Jayson a Back to the Future tee and reveals Jayson’s deeply questionable high school party trick involving his butt cheeks, and we learn that his landlord may now believe he has an insatiable appetite for Dutch Rudders. There’s also a heated argument about interludes, and Sam receives a very angry voice message from a “listener”. They also discuss the greatest Tony Hawk’s Pro Skater game of all time.

Right About Now, you might be thinking, “Should I listen?” Well, Stop to Think—do you want No Cigar and a lifetime of regret? Or do you wanna be a Pioneer, one who rides their Highway Donkey through a Duckpond with a Fox? If I had a zoo, it would have only Penguins & Polarbears. This might be my worst attempt at this yet, but I don’t care. Press play before your phone says A-Ten percent battery.
