Bobby Pickles' Podcast

This week on Episode 63 of Bobby Pickles' Podcast (Dying Scene Radio #8), Bobby Pickles confirms his pirate status, while talk immediately turns to tech news, and Bob Noxious admits he has worn a smart-watch since the age of three, giving a new meaning to the term “early adoption”. But the Apple Watch isn’t very i-Punk; therefore, all the other little boys and girls always wondered why Bob was so overwhelmed with the concept of time. While discussing this week’s music news, Bob’s darkside shows it’s grubby little hand again, as he ponders Bobby’s Internet browser history, and what people would think about his search habits. Bobby erroneously corrects Bob for mentioning a band called Darlington, who was recently on a split 7″ with The Prozacs. Referring to the band in the plural form, Darlingtons, Bobby goes on to claim that Bob cannot remember what he says from week to week and inquires if he has ever taken Prozac. Both Bobs do not know the ailments for which Prozac is even treated. Bob adds “Prozac” to the

This week on Episode 62 of Bobby Pickles' Podcast (Dying Scene Radio #7), the Bobs forgo the traditional format (no BAND SPOTLIGHT) in lieu of conducting two key interviews with Justin Thirsk of Chaos Delivery Machine and Bill Manspeaker of Green Jellÿ, respectively. Per usual, the two compare notes about the weather (Bob thrives in a sub-tropical paradise while Bobby survives yet another week of frozen, mucky hell), Bobby's girlfriend breaks up with him because of, among other things, the podcast, then Bob insists that his co-host settle for a “nice, vegan chick” instead of a “punk rock girl”, and Bob voices his displeasure with Bobby’s constant weekly updates about Blink 182. Regarding the Bobs’ interview with Justin Thirsk, Bob begins with an apology for giving bad information the week prior about Justin’s brother, Jason, who was the original bass player of Pennywise and the author of their iconic anthem, Bro Hymn. Justin takes the Bobs on a trip down memory lane about his former band 98 Mute and explains

This week on Episode 61 of Bobby Pickles' Podcast (6th Installment of Dying Scene Radio), Bob speaks solo with WRATHS/Pennywise/The Black Pacific frontman Jim Lindberg; and Bob and Bobby make an international call to Athens, Greece to speak with BAND SPOTLIGHT: Fold The Nuts. Bob reveals his narcissistic nature by humbly letting everybody know his day of birth, the two Bobs notice striking similarities amongst long tenured bands performing classic albums in their entirety (i.e. Face To Face’s “Triple Crown” series and Bad Religion’s “Battle of the Centuries”) and Bob invites all of the listeners to make a Wikipedia page for DyingScene.com and the DS radio show, respectively. BAND SPOTLIGHT: FOLD THE NUTS Bob manages to offend Greek punk rockers - Fold The Nuts - not once, but twice during their brief conversation, then he attempts to win back their favor by revealing that he sometimes gasses up his car in Tarpon Springs, FL - which has the highest percentage of Greek Americans of any city in the US. The two

This week (as like most) on Episode 60 of Bobby Pickles' Podcast (Dying Scene Radio #5), Bob and Bobby jabber about NY vs. Florida weather and bums before settling in to discuss the week in punk rock. Bobby shares a classic video game cheat code as the conversation turns to the Canadian music scene, as Bob admits to learning his Canadian geography from talking to all of the different bands and Bobby explains the “beer store” as he remembers it from his travels in Ontario. The conversation quickly devolves into “the things people do in Florida” when The All Knowledgable Bob mentions that he had recently visited an establishment in Florida where there were football goalposts inside of the urinal and the objective of this water sport was to pee onto the attached football in order to Rube Goldberg it through the uprights. Bobby recalls the “Cornhole” game as talk turns to sports, not that either of them know anything about subject. Their only pastime, punk rock. Bobby acknowledges his fondness of Screeching We

This week on EPISODE 59 of Bobby Pickles' Podcast (Dying Scene Radio #4): Bob continues to gloat about the fantastic weather in Florida, while Bobby and his bum stay warm from the heater in Bobby’s mom’s car; Bob allows a glimpse into his “sick sociopath” soul as he reveals his fascination for the macabre; and Bobby gives the “all-knowledgable” Bob Noxious a mulligan after he opens his mouth without first checking his facts. BAND SPOTLIGHT: Russian Girlfriends The two Bobs speak with Ian, Adam and Colin of the Albequerque-based punk band, Russian Girlfriends, on this week’s DSR “Band Spotlight”. Bob jokes that while researching them on the internet, the first hit asked him for his credit card information. The bandmembers only fuel the jest by admitting that most of their Facebook likes come from middle-eastern men looking for brides. Also, it’s a DSR WORLD PREMIER – debuting an unreleased Russian Girlfriends’ track called “Tad Kuebler”. Bobby discusses a news story, which inspires Bob to remember his Pirate

This week on Episode 58 of Bobby Pickles' Podcast (Dying Scene Radio #3), Bob Noxious and Bobby Pickles settle into their roles while passively aggressively trying to one-up each other. No one’s eating hot dogs at Coney Island on this episode of the podcast, but there’s plenty of hamburgers and snow in New York City. Bobby takes in a “bum” from off of the streets and mentions that, “they can be quite helpful for the budding entrepreneur.” If only they could edit audio clips… Bob recalls watching the World Series with Bad Religion’s Brett Guerewitz while challenging the podcast listeners to send Bobby their Top 10 Most Important Punk Bands for him to study up on. Bob then sits down and chats with the infamous Andrew WK before his performance in St. Petersburg, FL. They discuss recording with LMFAO, self-motivation, how the legendary death metal band Obituary helped form Andrew’s band…and what else? Partying! Bobby reports on the week’s punk rock news then professes his love for 80′s music icons, Hall &

This week on Episode 57 of Bobby Pickles' Podcast (Episode 2 of Dying Scene Radio), Bobby prepares for a “blizzard of epic proportions” in Connecticut, while Bob sits at home in Florida wearing shorts and a T-Shirt. Together, they plow through another week’s worth of new music and highlight this week’s happenings, as reported by dyingscene.com. BAND SPOTLIGHT: Things Change This week’s BAND SPOTLIGHT is on the Canadian punk rock trio, Things Change. Often compared to Small Brown Bike, Hot Water Music and Jawbreaker, Jason Kindrachuk, the band’s guitarist/singer, talks to Bob and Bobby about the band’s origins in the prairies of Regina, Saskatchewan and how each band member migrated individually over 1700 kilometers to reform in Vancouver. The conversation turns to breaking into the Vancouver music scene and how Things Change gained their Facebook following of teenage girls who have recently broken up with their boyfriends. Bobby gets up close and personal with Damn Broads, an all-female punk band out of Tor

Welcome to Episode 56 of Bobby Pickles' Podcast, which is the debut episode of Dying Scene Radio. It’s time to kick back and get to know Bob Noxious and Bobby Pickles…up close and personal…right in your ear hole. Join them each Friday for a weekly recap of the week’s punk rock news as reported right here on Dying Scene. Whether it’s new release, pre-release or unreleased, Dying Scene Radio is committed to featuring the best new music first. Bob n’ Bobby will feature news, reviews and interviews of the best bands, new and old, in ska, punk, crust, metal, hardcore and folk-punk. BAND SPOTLIGHT: Seven Thirty Seven  This week, Dying Scene Radio features the Buffalo, New York-based ska/punk band, Seven Thirty Seven. The two chat it up with bandmates Alex, Andy and Mike about their recent EP, Polish profanity and the Buffalo, NY punk music scene. Bobby Pickles speaks with Nick Ameen, who composed the Dying Scene Radio theme song. They discuss old times, the inspiration behind our awesome jingle, plus we play a c

On this sun-filled episode of BP’s P-cast, Bobby and #FLORIDIOT pals - Ben Coletti, Bob Noxious, Tobia Spinelli and Mateo Gash - sail out in the gulf and along the intracoastal waterways of Madeira Beach, FL, sharing stories and poking fun at each other in glorious fashion. Bobby gets sea sick for the first time in his life - all caught remarkably via GoPro. The crew also stumbles upon a beached vessel, but none of its inhabitants seem to care that their ship is grounded. Nothing but beers, boats and blathering on this Florida “boatcast” edition of BPP, sponsored by FAT ENZO.

Podcasting from Compassionate Care Center of CT (one of the six medical marijuana dispensaries in that state) Bobby, on location in the quaint town of Bethel, talks pot policy, prohibition and the endocannabinoid system with licensed pharmacist/dispensary facility manager, Nicole Liedke. They also discuss opiate addiction, the dirty secret behind why marijuana is illegal in the first place and how my idiot friend, Piazza, managed to attain a legal weed card.   http://www.ccc-ct.com     CLICK HERE TO WATCH THE VIDEO

Boston-based punk rock prodigies - BarRoom Heroes - stop by Bobby’s mother’s basement, prior to their gig in Bridgeport, to discuss Irish-ness, Boston-ness and the novelty of youth. While these BarRoom Heroes aren’t the only punks in town, they are the most legitimate rightful heirs to the “BarRoom Heroes” name. Dropkick Murphys have publicly vouched for their awesomeness, plus they’re not German, and in fact, they too hail from Beantown. A segment of the conversation originally aired on LOUD FAST SHITTY 11-17-14. 

Podcasting, two days after Halloween, from The Old Oak Street Burial Ground (also known as the “Old and Indian Cemetery”) in Grafton, MA, my cohort, Matthew Piazza, and I, speak with author and old-time consigliere, Roberta Grimes, about her new book “The Fun of Staying in Touch: How Our Loved Ones Contact Us and How We Can Contact Them”. Grimes’ previous work “The Fun of Dying: Find Out What Really Happens Next!” shapes most of our discussion, which spans such topics as, death and the afterlife, Jesus without Christianity, Brittany Maynard and her decision to die with dignity, if Albert Einstein was an atheist or not, and why Piazza will most likely be reincarnated as a cockroach. Roberta also hosts the talk-radio podcast, Seek Reality with Roberta Grimes, which can be downloaded for free on iTunes.   RobertaGrimes.com

Matthew Piazza is a hilarious scumbag from Boston, Mass. Drugs used to fuel him, pot still does, as Matt admits, "If it weren't for pot, I'd still be shooting heroine". Baldness, tattoos, harlots, the good ole days - Piazza's Dunbar Number serves this discussion fondly and many insane, idiotic topics are covered on this first Live Video edition of Bobby Pickles' Podcast.

Bobby, along with Martini, conduct the following podcast from Union, NJ, at the studio of New York City-based artist, Ocean Clark, whose paintings of pop culture icons hang in various saloons and pizza restaurants throughout the five boroughs, and Hoboken and Jersey City, respectively. Ocean markets his prints and originals worldwide himself, primarily by way of various social media networks such as Twitter, Facebook and Instagram. On IG, Ocean packs a mean punch, auctioning off his works to thousands of followers and giving even the most respectable live stock auctioneer a run for his money.

Bobby podcasts via Skype with Ronnie Lee Smith aka Roland A. Duby, stand-up comedian, social media personality, and self-proclaimed healer of cancer by way of cannabis oil. Smith learned to cultivate the oil while growing and harvesting marijuana with Jack Herer, American cannabis activist and the author of ”The Emperor Wears No Clothes”. He also made a name for himself in Gallatin County, Kentucky, where he ran for sheriff with the promise of legalizing marijuana to allow farmers to grow the crop for its medicinal uses. 

Bobby, along with maties, Cap’n Coletti, Tobia Spinelli and “Bert”, conduct this podcast, on location, while boating along the gulf and intracoastal waterways of Pinellas County, Florida – spanning Treasure Island to Shell Key. Our guest, Carlos Morales, is a graphic sign man, musician and able seaman, who, along with Bobby, share a common enemy in Robert Taylor, a retched scallywag who hornswoggled the pair for more than their doubloons. Ram shackled and marooned on a deserted island somewhere in the south pacific, Taylor has finally found his sea legs after 20 plus years. Dead men tell no tales, so the crew blethers about piracy, plundering, bleeding their powdered monkey, and spotting dolphins; Thar she blows! 

Bobby, along with cohorts Wacky and Coletti, conduct this podcast, on location, from “Tesla’s Revenge” (which is the name of Coletti’s boat) docked along the intracoastal waterways of Isle of Capri in Treasure Island, Florida, with Tiffany, a former pro sports dancer, and Colonel Nipples, a cracker ass cracker who has just one (not both) of his floppy man boobs pierced. The five discuss a range of topics, from waxing the vaginal area, volunteering to fight in Vietnam, gun control, electricity…we’re idiots and we were entirely drunk while recording this so don’t take anything we say seriously. 

Bobby, along with cohort Coletti, conduct this podcast, on location, from a boat docked along the intracoastal waterways of Madeira Beach, Florida, with Dave Reynard, a self-proclaimed inventor, theorist and dreamer. The original inventor of the cellular telephone (allegedly) and borosilicate glass sex toys, Dave and his company, Knowmind Enterprises, have been featured on many television programs, including, but not limited to, HBO’s Real Sex 27. The three discuss a range of topics, from what it’s like to participate in reality television, to being the “glass dildo king” of the world.  

Bobby, along with cohort Martini, conduct this podcast, on location, in the filthy, grimy, seedy cellar of The Sidebar, in downtown Baltimore, MD, with Dave (vocals), Geoff (drums) and Todd (bass) of the bonafide punk rock band, Copstabber, prior to them opening for The Business. The subsequent conversation covers various subject matters, including, the history of the band, having baby hands, illicit drug use, plus another half dozen or more ignorant topics. At times intelligent and at times idiotic, the dialogue that ensues is forever interesting, and the complete and total embodiment of those who harbor a genuine bonafide disposition. (Tone Lo-Ki in SLAM – 3:07).   

Bobby, along with cohort Martini, hold a trifecta guinea sit-down, on location, from Fluxivity Studios, in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, with New York City record producer, John Agnello (Kurt Vile, Sonic Youth, Dinosaur Jr., Thurston Moore, Jemina Pearl, etc), from the control room of the studio, right next to the classic Neve analogue mixing consol, which John uses to generate euphonious gold. The three discuss a range of topics, from audio editing, to being “the best”, and what it means to be the oldest hipster. They also openly discuss, to Bobby’s chagrin, the infamous Halloween party pants shitting incident, as well as John’s discography, along with some of his war stories. In addition, Bobby records Martini’s rendition of “The Cape” by Guy Clark, euphonious gold despite their obvious musician handicap.
