Razorcake Podcast #79: With Jimmy Alvarado
Submitted for your consideration: two bleary eyed punk rockers sit down to record a Halloween podcast. What they thought would be a routine task quickly turned into a swirling, quiet storm of terror, horrifying jokes and “FM voices.” Are Todd and Jimmy possessed by the Screamin’ Meemies from Planet X? Have they stumbled into the farthest reaches of The Outer Limits? Or have they entered a dimension far more sinister, evil and silly? It is up to you to judge, dear listener. Personally, we think one too many weepy emo records have caused them both to finally slip a cog. Hell, at least the music they were playin’ was cool.
Happy Halloween, kids.
