Welcome to EKA169! Today we're joined by Heavy Metal Chess Club out of Philadelphia!

I'll give you a hint: lots of Title Fight, Modern Baseball and The Hotelier. Along with this we discuss the bustling Philadelphia DIY scene, their favorites in the area, how they ended up on We're Trying Records and so much more. Are they emo?

168. Michael Cera Palin: Elliott talks Emo, Atlanta & The Link Between Freddy Got Fingered & 9/11 | Emo Kids Anonymous

Welcome to EKA168! Today is a very special episode as we are joined by Elliott Brabant of Michael Cera Palin for a wide ranging interview that had Robb in tears from both laughter and sadness. Things kick off with a bang as we immediately start by talking about Combat and Freddie Got Fingered which of course leads to Ebert & Roper and then 9/11 and then things just keep on that path. We discuss the deer imagery across the songs and artwork, the hiatus, the return, the state of the scene today and their thoughts on the Sheryl Crow cover all these years later. At one point Amanda has technical issues and Elliott and Robb just nerd out over Emo, as Elliott shared their most controversial opinions on emo as we walked through each wave. This felt like a special episode, EKA at it's finest, if I can break the fourth wall and also gloat at the same time. Elliott was a real pleasure, we discuss how their mom supported their passion for music, the importance of queer spaces in music, plus so many of the bands we've had on this show. Aren't We Amphibians, Ogbert The Nerd, Kerosene Heights, Evan Weiss, Manor Gates (oops that's next week), Prince Daddy and so much more. Shoutout to Elliott for being an absolute treat to interview and a treasure trove of emo insight and wisdom. Complete with Sophie's Floorboard, Blogspot and Warped Tour Compilation CD references, this was a very fun interview that was all over the place in the best way. ---------------------------- Thanks for watching, please subscribe to our show for more content!

167. Glen: Hog House, Hut Dug Horror Stories and Michigan DIY | Emo Kids Anonymous

Welcome to EKA167! Today we're joined by the band Glen out of Lansing, Michigan. Originally they're from Clio, they went to high school together and now they run a venue out of their home. We've heard about this band in previous episodes with No Problemo!, Final Boss Fight, The Bald and Tequila Mockingbird so naturally we had to have the band on and they were uhh...NOT a disappointment. There was gaslighting, glizzy gobbling and so much more. We talk about their origins (they went to high school together in Clio, Michigan), the house of Glen (including the jouch) and Calvin Johnson (I think). This whole thing was a blur i dunno. -------------------------------------------- Thanks for watching, please subscribe to our show for more content!

166. The Early November, Ace & Jeff Talk 25 Years of TEN, Drive Thru Days, Compilations vs Playlists, Parenting & More | Emo Kids Anonymous

Welcome to EKA166! Today we are joined by Ace Enders and Jeff Kummer from seminal New Jersey emo band The Early November! Amanda and I have both been fans of this band for over 20 years so we were very excited for this interview and the guys did not disappoint. Truly class acts who made for an incredible conversation that covered everything from the early days of the band to their multi decades long friendship to this past weekend at Warped Tour in Washington DC. Ace has worked extensively with friend of the show and previous guest Gabe Woodrow so we chatted about Gabe as well as tons of other bands from Yellowcard to a drive thru records special emo gauntlet featuring everyone from NFG to SoCo to The Starting Line, Finch, Hellogoodbye, you name em! Plus, did we get the inside scoop and possibly name their seventh LP (#TEN7)? At times this conversation gets philosophical and at other times it's heavy and then it's all laughs. Truly one of our favorite interviews in show history, I'm not sure if I wish these guys were my best friends, my dads, or my senators, but either way wow what an absolute treat they were. Thanks guys! ------------------------------- Thanks for watching, please subscribe to our show for more content!
