    Defending Nickelback (And Other Odd Choices)

    Everybody likes movies, especially when they’ve got an awesome standout track to go with them! The guys discuss some of their favorite title tracks, epic moment songs and even some hidden gems associated with movies but not necessarily part of them. 

  2. 37

    You Had Me At...

    Iconic lines from iconic frontmen. The guys discuss what immediately grabbed their attention and created some of their favorite songs from some of their favorite bands. Randy is a bad mother fucker and Cory is still old. Sleepy Joe strikes again.

  3. 36

    In Our Birthday Suits

    Happy Birthday America! The boys touch on new releases from Bad Wolves, From The Tides, Gideon and DED as well as a new scream record brought to us by none other than Mr. Oli Sykes. Anticipation for Inkcarceration and Motionless In White as they are just weeks away! This episode goes everywhere and nowhere all at once... as usual. 

  4. 35

    Bring. Me. That. Horizon.

    The title says it all here folks. The guys break down the legacy of Bring Me The Horizon as well as an added extra look into Dehumanized (two weeks crammed into one episode thanks to modern technology and a little help from Ray Ray and a 1980's phone booth).

  5. 34

    Shamone?

    Alright, this episode happened. The guys dive into the past week’s newest releases, argue like usual (don’t worry, Jason’s right again), and then we try to unpack whatever the hell Cory and Randy are doing with a 1985 classic.

  6. 33

    The Bleghs Off

    The guys wrestle with the ghosts of unfinished masterpieces left behind by fallen frontmen. Each has a different take on what “complete” even means. How far should an artist go to protect a legacy that outlives them? Apparently Randy sounds like Freddie Mercury!

  7. 32

    Balloon Animals 2 (The Backside)

    Yungblood review, a big day for rock history, Cory's questionable choices for places to unload and Dark Divine drama, oh my! Yet another week of Rock'dHard shenanigans!

  8. 31

    Drugs ARE Bad

    The guys tackle a tough topic that has hindered the music industry for decades. Do drugs make great musicians and in turn make great music? What would the music industry look like without them? Could listeners appreciate an artist struggle without knowing the underlying issues, traumas and overall struggles in life? 

  9. 30

    Shomo Fo Sho!

    The boys are all over the latest news from the Beartooth camp. Caleb poured his personal life into Pure Ecstasy — and the title track rips. President unleashes 'Doom Loop' with a surprise announcement. Cory tries to deny his MGK fandom… but Randy’s not buying it. Tons to unpack.

  10. 29

    New releases, live shows, and teasers — oh my!This episode has it all. The boys break down the latest from Breaking Benjamin and Black Veil Brides, while sharing their excitement for the upcoming Beartooth and President releases.Can Randy hold it down with a solo show review? Only time will tell.And yes… Old Man Cory is once again struggling to form complete sentences.

  11. 28

    Rock & Review (Motionless In White's Playing God)

    The boys go deep on Motionless In White, dissecting their explosive new single 'Playing God' and the highly anticipated album Decades. Jason drops the inside scoop on the band’s favorite track from Scoring the End of the World — with receipts. Cory’s getting dragged to a show he wants no part of, and Randy earns himself a new nickname the painful way.

  12. 27

    Much Ado About Nothing

    The guys might as well have taken the week off. However, they did not. Instead they decide to discuss the latest releases, proud dad moments, that damn bitch again and Cory's lack of bladder control.

  13. 26

    Going Limp Is Not Gonna Make This Guy Hard

    The guys react to this week’s new drops, including MGK’s latest ‘what the fuck’ moment. Randy’s loving every second, while Cory and Jason keep trying to talk about the songs but can’t quite get on the same page. As always, everything goes gloriously off the rails.

  14. 25

    Blue Chew (Not a Sponsor)

    The boys recap their recent experience with The Toadies, discuss this year’s Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductees, and review a few standout new releases.

  15. 24

    Birthday Monkey Paw?

    Somebody's got a birthday! The guys dig deeper into previous new releases, Randy has an opinion and Jason doesn't agree. Cory hates the rules at concerts and doesn't remember why.

  16. 23

    To Poke Or Not To Poke?

    The boys recap the latest releases, but Cory and Randy quickly lose the plot. Just Jason can’t believe what the podcast has become and fights to keep his sanity while they tackle an iconic album from rock history. 

  17. 22

    Rock & Review (Bad Omens/Dark Divine)

    Cory & Jason hold it down with a complete recap of President, Beartooth, and Bad Omens while Randy is MIA. Randy finally makes his comeback to dive into From The Tides, Set For Tomorrow, Not Enough Space, and Dark Divine — still trying to wrap his head around everything he missed in the first half.

  18. 21

    Audio WTF Nostalgia

    Rock’dHards Vault: Does nostalgia secretly rule our favorite songs? The guys take a raw, no-holds-barred trip down memory lane, unpacking the tracks that still hit hardest and the stories behind why they became personal anthems. Is it tied to a specific time, a place, a first love, a heartbreak, or just some unexplainable feeling? Hell if we know—but we’re diving in anyway to find out.

  19. 20

    Pineapples Is My Safe Word

    The guys kick things off buzzing with excitement about the upcoming Bad Omens: Do You Feel Love North American Tour show, featuring heavy-hitting support from Beartooth and President—it’s shaping up to be an epic night of rock and metal energy.They also proudly award the second-ever Rock’dHards Spotlight to the rising metalcore act Dark Divine, shining a well-deserved light on their sound and scene presence.Randy’s hilariously hyped (and a little mysterious) about scoring Charlie Simpson‘s autograph—for reasons he’s keeping suspiciously close to the chest—while Cory and Jason dive deep into the details: pop-up shops, show logistics, exclusive listener meetups, and where fans from all over are repping the podcast.

    If Video Killed The Radio Star...?

    Are losses in the rock world recoverable? Is AI the answer? The guys have varying opinions on the reality of how AI could play a factor in the future of rock and metal.

  23. 16

    They're Doing What?

  24. 15

    Planes, Trains & Onomatopoeias

    The boys don’t agree with the Grammys and they’ve got a bit to say about it. We discover that not only does Cory not math but Randy….. Just Jason shows appreciation to the great Axl Rose. It’s a carnival of epic proportions. And like all the best carnivals, there are prizes to be awarded!
