Episode notes

Oh dip, it’s part two of our three part Pop Punk mixtape extravaganza. On this episode we move from the late 90s to the present day and wonder if people actually like pop punk after the mid 00s. The answer to that depends on how much you like fringes, whether or not you’re English, and if your favourite band is Blink 182, New Found Glory or All Time bloody Low.

Weaver takes us from 98 to mid 00s, covering the “golden age” of pop punk. And Mark brings us bang up to date with a smattering of good, bad and “meh” songs by bands that we’re all too old to really get.

Turns out time is indeed a flat circle, friends, and like zombie Jesus himself, pop punk never dies.
