Episode 122: Tiger Beat for Misfits
In our 122nd episode, we’re back in person for the first time since episode 77, nearly a year ago. Coming to you live from an undisclosed location in Maine, we dig back into Nate’s abundant nerdery storage. Similar to episode 26, the three of us take turns pulling magazines out of a large bin, and riff off what we come up with. With the likes of Kerrang, Alt Press, Rolling Stone (and some surprises), what could go wrong?!
We start the episode with a look back at our conversation with Blothar the Berserker of GWAR, and a look ahead to the special project we’ve been teasing. Be on the lookout for a trailer in the coming week!

In our 121st episode, we’re joined by the one and only Blothar the Berserker — vocalist of metal legends GWAR. We cover everything from GWAR’s new album ‘The New Dark Ages,’ the impact Beavis & Butthead had on the band, their infamous live show experience, return to touring, their merch and being in creative control, and everything in between.
