My Friend's Favorite Records: Recent Episodes
My Friend's Favorite Records
My Friend’s Favorite Records is a slightly obscure music podcast where three friends force each other to listen to new music and talk about it.
2015 doesn't feel THAT long ago, but we're gonna take a lil' trip back in time to discuss a beautiful release from that year; Mabel, by pop punk darlings Spraynard.
Pootsie picked the 2012 indie/alt/weirdo release No Fate But What We Make by Jersey darlings Cicada Radio. Join us as we discuss this absolutely rad release.
We've been moving slow, life has been busy! We have a lot in the works so we are coming at you with a little update before we get back into the other stuff you also don't care to hear about. Two more episodes in Season 2 and then we're gonna come at you with Season 3!
Coming at you with a special Valentine's Day episode showcasing our love for one another (maybe?) and our love (for sure) of Soulmate Stuff from the precious bb's over at Antarctigo Vespucci. We survived the Dopamines, the Dopamines survived the Dopamines (probably?) | The Bengals did, in fact lose the Big Game | Hot Water Music corner | Stories from Antarctigo gigs past | Soulmate talk.
We meant to release this in 2021 but life happens, amirite? Records that came out in 2001 | You're gonna feel old | 9/11 conspiracies in music | Poots still hates Blink-182 | Justin talks about Hot Water Music | Josh still likes Ska.
Get ready to lose your voice and make it hurt, or something? We chat about this rad release from New York's Polar Bear Club. Listen to The Redder, the Better, listen to MFFR, nerds. https://bridge9.bandcamp.com/album/the-redder-the-better.
We have a special guest - MAX! Max is about to go to his very first Fest. Catch a chat on what bands we're excited to see (some have dropped since we recorded LOL) and hear a track from Max's band, Fragile Like Life After.
In this mini we air our grievances with those who cannot resist filming the entire set. We truly hope you forgot to hit record, ya jerks.
Join the fam as we chat about this dark, creative and truly wonderful piece of music from Capsule. Stream the full release on bandcamp through Robotic Empire.
In this episode we get in some hockey chat and a recap of some laughs we had thanks to some comedians. Maybe a little music talk, too.
JOIN US for part one of two on a record that is near and dear to all of our hearts - The Dopamines Tales of Interest. Jwat, Poots and Pappy get a little toasty and a lot stupid in this episode
JOIN US for part two of two on a record that is near and dear to all of our hearts - The Dopamines Tales of Interest. Jwat, Poots and Pappy get even more toasty and even dumber in this episode

We're fully vaxxed and recording IRL with a sweet new setup. Some bullshitting, life updates and conversation on what we've been listening to.
On this episode we have a heated discussion about breakfast foods before talking alllll about the fun vibes produced by Timeshares on Already Dead. Probably got a lot of facts wrong here, forgive us.
In this episode we talk about Pappy's favorite band - Hot Water Music, and his favorite HWM record Fuel for the Hate Game and BOY do we nerd out! Stay tuned for Pappy's Hot Water Music podcast in which he breaks down every HWM record, track-by-track, one song per episode!
Josh throws the gang a curveball with Matisyahu's Undercurrent. Poots and Pappy lecture Josh on long songs and good conversation is had about just how different this record is than most things we listen to. For fans of rap, jam bands, and soundscape-y vibe stuff!
Are you ready to party adjacent-ly or something? Kick off Season 2 with us as we talk about why Josh doesn't like this record. (This record actually rips and you can listen to it here: Dan Andriano in the Emergency Room - Party Adjacent.)
Join us for a quick little wrap-up of season one. In this episode we each list our top 10 favorite records of 2020. Season two coming soon!
In this episode we take a break from the rotation and discuss a record that we all love - Leavin' La Vida Loca by Antarctigo Vespucci. This is a must-hear record for anyone who likes to have fun, indulges in self-loathing, and loves some relatable sad person content. We promise we don't get Dopamines level wasted on this one.
Santa delivers a holiday gift (Chris Farren - Like A Gift From God Or Whatever) and things get nice and Jolly.
In this episode we break down Witness from Modern Life Is War. Join us as we discuss how more people might like hardcore if more hardcore bands had lyrics that read like the sweet, sweet poetry of this record.
Join us for a fun chat about Tera Melos X'ed Out - a record that is generally "not assaulting or offensive" to Poots, but does have "weird gross shit that sounds like someone trying to play an instrument that is missing two strings" and parts that "sound like Guitar Center".
This record is an enjoyable indie/math rock/experimental jammer that has a little something for everyone.
The gang gets spoopy and does a SURPRISE episode on the classic AFI All Hallows EP. Put your costume on, carve a jack-o-lantern, but please don't put any razorblades in candy apples.

The boys try to coach Poots through saying “26th”, briefly discuss sports in the time of COVID, and then break down the post-hardcore, dance-punk release from from Q & Not U. No Kill No Beep Beep came out TWENTY years ago on Dischord. Come feel old with us.
Join us this week as we lose our minds over how much all three of us loved this adventure into metal/thrash/weirdo vibes. Poots is still working on reducing her bad habit of saying "like" so dang much.
