A podcast that defies description, only because I don’t know how to describe it. I sit in front of a mic and talk about things I like or find interesting with guests dropping in who are much more interesting then me.

Ska is one of those musical genres that you either love or hate, and thankfully both Mitch and Joe love it!
This episode we go on a deep dive and trace the roots of ska through it's three waves - the origins in Jamaica in the 60's, the 2-Tone era of England in the 80's, and third wave of ska punk from the US in the 90's - including some clips of Joe's favourites, as well as a few of our usual tangents too.
Joe has even put together a companion playlist on Spotify of a lot of the songs we discuss too if you want to check it out here - https://open.spotify.com/playlist/4QniLlNzMXva58Ouenk5YA?si=3459caf018d94718

From his incredible Wrestlemania moments, to his long list of B-Movie credits, he truly was an icon, and a huge reason Mitch and Joe became wrestling fans as kids.
