'I'm Not Okay' by My Chemical Romance (w/ Gianmarco Soresi)
2022/06/23
ARE YOU OKAY? Gianmarco Soresi stops by the podcast to discuss goths, outsized teenage emotions, music made in response to 9/11, debate the attractiveness of a sulky man, and much more. Read the bad, bad book that is this episode because unlike your jock boyfriend, this podcast just gets you. Guest: Gianmarco Soresi Walk-in music: 'Get Free' by The Vines; 'X Gon' Give It To Ya' by DMX.

'Frontin' by Pharrell (w/ Negin Farsad)
2022/06/16
Pharrell originally pitched this song to Prince, and we can confidently say, we’re glad Prince said no! This song rules! Makes you think, maybe Prince should have said no to more things! Negin Farsad returns to the pod bringing some personal history with this Pharrell feat. Jay-Z classic, and frankly more personal history than we needed as she recounts some shocking schoolyard taunts. Evan spends way too much time talking about cupping melons in the grocery store, and eventually punches Frontin up to much applause.  Guest: Negin Farsad (Fake The Nation, Birdgirl) Walk-in music: 'Rock Your Body' by Justin Timberlake; 'Boasty' by Wiley (Ft. Stefflon Don, Sean Paul, & Idris Elba) Support the show, make requests, and get all the pure, uncut punch-ups on Patreon Follow Punch Up The Jam on Twitter and Instagram Like the show?

'Mr. Blue Sky' by ELO (w/ Amy Miller)
2022/06/09
If you spent 6 weeks in a Swiss chalet, you'd probably write a beloved, feel-good rock hit too. Evan and comedian Amy Miller get into airplane etiquette like a couple of 90's stand-ups, an Elmer Fudd-ELO conspiracy like a couple of academic theorists, and wax problematic on humans having koala babies. Tune in to hear Evan punch-up this classic! Guest: Amy Miller Walk-in music: 'O Superman' by Laurie Anderson; 'If U Seek Amy' by Britney Spears.

'Beggin' by Måneskin (w/ Daniel Thrasher)
2022/06/02
I’m beggin, beggin you, to listen to this tale of how evil bond-style supervillains are conspiring to take over society with This One New Sound that is actually old and grates on your ears. Daniel Thrasher stops into the pod before going out on tour to share the reason he hates this Måneskin song (apparently it’s a C#). Michael Gregory guest hosts to support Evan’s mental health (Evan really tests the bounds of sanity with this week’s punch) Guest: Daniel Thrasher Walk-in music: 'Tiptoe Through The Tulips' by Tiny Tim; 'Grazing In The Grass' by The Friends of Distinction. get all the punch ups, support the show, and improve your mindfulness by jumping into http://patreon.com/gregorybrothers  Follow Punch Up The Jam on Twitter and Instagram Like the show?

'I Get Around' by The Beach Boys (w/ Tim Daniels)
2022/05/26
Evan's losing his mind and has Friend of the Pod and Beachboyologist Tim Daniels (The Complete Guide to Everything) in for triage. The Beach Boys: They got around in every way you’re thinking. In the fictional but sort of autobiographical world of this song there’s drag racing, hot promiscuous sex, bragging about fat stacks, and “cool head”, yikes. In the real world there was abuse, fights, drowning, beefing with other bands, not to mention the Manson family stuff. As the Beachies sang, Fun, Fun, FUN! Guest: Tim Daniels Walk-in music: 'Taboo' by Caterina Valente; 'Revolution Blues' by Neil Young.

'Bring Me To Life' by Evanescence (w/ Michael Gregory)
2022/05/19
The song that launched a million emo kids! Have you ever felt like you can’t wake up? Did you try having a random dude yell CANT WAKE UP at you? Evan, set adrift as a solo host, sorely missing his cohost Andrew (who’s on paternity leave), pulls in the next best thing, his other brother Michael, who proceeds to hit a home run with a stunning GUEST PUNCH. This episode gets to the bottom of what Bring Me To Life is really about: no it’s not the clown from It, but he does come up for some goth reason.  Guest: Michael Gregory Walk-in music: a surprise REVERSE PUNCH they said it couldn't be done!!

'With Arms Wide Open' by Creed (w/ Markiplier)
2022/05/12
With Ahms Wahd O-PAHNN. Why would we ever want to punch up this beloved song about daddy issues?? Evan and Andrew interrogate YouTube legend Markiplier (Mark Fischbach) about his childhood connection to this sensitive but rockin' tune. Many groundbreaking ideas and questions come to the surface: How NOT to do your album art photoshop, Why does Scott Stapp sing like a muppet, How does Andrew have a certain musical Spidey Sense, Why did Scott Stapp fight another rock band and have an orgy with Kid Rock? Guest: Markiplier Walk-in music: 'Silence Kid' by Pavement; 'Spaceship Superstar' by Prism; 'Homeworld (The Ladder)' by Yes.

'Dust in the Wind' by Kansas
2022/05/05
All we are is dust in the wind, dude. This crucial insight has been blowing the minds of rock fans for decades. Dust. Wind. Think about it man!! Andrew & Evan get into the nitty-gritty on this classic hit and are shocked, shocked to discover that the band Kansas is actually from Kansas!! And somehow this song is the first thing the singer ever learned to play on the guitar?? They get in a fight about Evan's soundboard abuse, but make up by the end of the episode to make a Very Special Announcement about hosting the podcast.   Walk-in music: 'All My Life' by K-Ci & JoJo; 'Everywhere' by Fleetwood Mac.

'Levitating' by Dua Lipa (w/ Connor Ratliff)
2022/04/28
It's the hit of the century! It sounds like it's from the 1980s and the 2080s at the same time! Everyone and their pet alien loves this song, and that's why, to punch it up, we knew we had to enlist the help of Connor Ratliff, a legend in the podcastiverse for his dedication to dissecting utter minutiae. And Connor did not disappoint, at one point obsessing over the syllables in a single measure to the point that Evan yelled "YOU HAVE GASLIT YOURSELF!" Our intrepid astronauts veer across the Milky Way and discover connections from Dua Lipa's Levitating to Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Jon Ossoff, and beer-brewing Trappist monks.  Guest: Connor Ratliff Walk-in music: 'I Drink Beer' by Dan Reeder; 'Got To Give It Up' by Marvin Gaye; 'Pumped Up Kicks' by Foster The People.  Get the punch-ups for your very own punched-up-song library by supporting the show on Patreon.

'Manic Monday' by The Bangles
2022/04/21
MONDAYS AMIRITE???? Is the very controversial claim at the heart of this huge 80s hit from the Bangles. Evan and Andrew investigate whether Mondays are really persecuting The Bangles orrrrrr was this song perhaps written by an alien who had just learned about human jobs? No, in fact, it was written by Prince, and this episode reveals that he plagiarized one of his own @%#$ songs when phoning in the writing of this overgrown nursery rhyme. DJs and producers, don’t miss the absolutely sick sample pack of snares that Evan drops at 17:45, completely manic. Historians, don’t miss Andrew’s insights about Mike Myers, Fun Days, and Sex Shooters.  This week’s punch up is exTREMEly useful in your everyday life and if it had its own title other than “Manic Monday Punch Up” it would be “The Consequences Of My Actions” -- get this song and other punch ups on our Patreon: www.patreon.com/gregorybrothers and support the pod!  Walk-in music: 'Whiter Shade of Pale' by Procol Harum; 'Bang Bang' by Joe Cuba Sextet.

'The Reason' by Hoobastank (w/ Mano Agapion)
2022/04/14
“I’m not a perfect person,” begins this very imperfect song by perfectly named Hoobastank. NO DURR. Mano Agapion (Drag Her, Podcast Killed The Video Star) absolutely hoobed in with some stanky insights, and we can now call this song what it is: abuse. Even more shocking discoveries are made about the SoCal ska scene, Ross from Friends, and Biff from Back to the Future. Andrew brings an eye-opening punch up to the show that changes everything. And the reason is…..you. Guest: Mano Agapion Walk-in music: 'I'll Be There For You' by The Rembrandts; 'Thank You For Being a Friend' by Andrew Gold; 'Embryonic Journey' by Jefferson Airplane.

'Down On The Farm' by Tim McGraw (w/ Dana Schwartz) ft. Zachary Williams on vocals
2022/04/07
Andrew comes to the pod this week with a barnyard axe to grind: Why ain’t there country music for them northerners? Down On The Farm by Tim McGraw proves the PERfect vessel for his punch up which turns out inventing an entirely new subgenre of music!! Evan is both aghast and delighted. Dana Schwartz (Anatomy: A Love Story; Noble Blood) saves the day as official Rhode Island Consultant, and together they figure out a lot about Quahogs, casual country sexism, wine scrotums, and Hollywood nepotism. Guest: Dana Schwartz Special Guest Punch Vocal by Zachary Williams of the Lone Bellow!  Punch ups available as standalone tracks on Patreon!! It's the best deal on the internet! Walk-in music: The First Cut Is the Deepest by P.P. Arnold; Forever and Ever, Amen by Randy Travis; The Funeral by Yungblud Follow Punch Up The Jam on Twitter and Instagram Like the show?
