Punk Rock Nostalgia

Mal Thursday dredges up a Classic Rerun from April of 2016, which focuses on his favorite punk rock-related numbers, mostly from the '76-'80 golden age. There is no hardcore, no post-punk, no pop-punk, and no posers. Well, that last one is debatable. Dig in! Presented in Ultrasonic Stereophonic and Living Monophonic Sound.

Doubling Down

Mal is on the road, so he has dug deep into the vaults to bring you this most rocking episode from seven years ago. Don't worry, babies -- it still holds up! The conceptual glue that holds it all together is "doubling down," where one song leads to another, back-to-back and belly-to-belly, with something in common between the tracks. Originally broadcast 11 February 2016.
