Ben Walker and Olivia Sisay from Bus Crush join Harry to officially kick 2026 off in style. And also maybe to talk about their new EP and music video. Whatever.

A few years ago, Ben Sisto's Wikipedia rabbit hole led him into a mystery: who first came up with the iconic refrain of "Who Let The Dogs Out?" As the subject of a new documentary, Ben's fascination with uncovering the truth led him around the world to Miami, the UK, and more. Listen t0 Ben talk about the documentary with Harry on the premiere episode of a new season of the dang ol' Puddcast!

NICE!!!! It's a Fest! Now in it's 4th year, Nice keeps building upon itself and improving. Founder and organizer Alex Pickert joins Harry on the show to talk about how excited they both are for this year's iteration of what has become Boston's best showcase of local indie, alternative, and DIY music.

Fracture Type are a dope as f**k post-hardcore band from Quincy, MA. Their lead singer and baritone guitarist Kevin Grady also went to high school with Harry. So this episode is really just two friends catching up and yapping about music. What could be better?

Ben Bonadies and Dillon Riley take over this week on thee Puddcast to chat with Evan from Happy Just to See You. They locked Harry in a cage, but he will be free. He will know vengeance.

If you follow underground hip-hop, you undoubtedly know Boston duo 7L & Esoteric. Even if you barely know mainstream hip-hop, you've probably heard of the Wu Tang Clan. CZARFACE is the team-up of the Boston Duo and Wu Tang's Inspectah Deck. Esoteric joined Harry on thee Puddcast to discuss CZARFACE's newest album, CZARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE.

Tiefling is a Boston-based electronic producer and DJ who recently dropped an ambient album titled 1nstrumentality, for which she designed her own set of Biblically-accurate angels.

Chaia is an electronic producer and DJ who splits her time between Boston and New York. Using house and techno as her canvas, she samples traditional Yiddish music and sound bytes from contemporary progressive Jewish thinkers to combine her modern music interests with her ancestral background.

Fitzgerald (formerly rvrsr) has been a journeyman of live and session performing as the guitarist for Cliff Notez, Tim Hall, and more. He's getting ready to release his first solo material in a few years, so he joins Harry... and things get real sensitive and tender. Be soft, y'all.

Now in its 2nd year, In Between Days has emerged as one of the Boston area's best curated festivals. We sat down with founder Alex Magelby to get some insight into the genesis of the festival as well as give you all a little preview of this year's iteration, headlined by Modest Mouse, Sunny Day Real Estate, and more.

The word Sapatnik roughly translates to "an old friend who you've been through some shit with." In that spirit, this band seeks to operate like a collective, with each member making an equal contribution to find mutual healing through music. They talk to Harry about their new album Jam Jar, which came out this week.

Perennial use a simple formula to make ridiculously exciting music: punk, filtered thru the band's obsession with early-to-mid 60s music (Motown soul, girl groups, a little underground act called The Beatles). Ben and Harry chat with them this week on the Puddcast.

Fat Randy's music has been described as "avant-prog-punk." Whatever. What's more interesting is their story about the time they played a benefit gig for someone who had a stroke and (unknowingly) hired a deranged clown who took things a little too far. Oh, and Harry breaks down how every music genre is either country or rock. May the 18th be with you.

LAVAGXRL is one of Boston's most eclectic underground artists, producers, and DJs. They join Harry and cohost Dillon to discuss their upcoming project, as well as the various random topics that Harry's ADHD raddled brain can spew out.

Matt Shearer is a reporter for WBZ News Boston. He's been going viral for his hilarious local news coverage via TikTok and Instagram. He helps Harry and Ben kick off season three of thee Puddcast.
