Damian kills every interview and really lets the absolute legends he interviews talk it out and rant. Best podcast for punkers not that it’s a competition but every episode here is gold! Keep it up!

Wow! The 2nd episode with the McDonald brothers is beyond epic!!! Keep it up! I love this podcast

This is a really good podcast and I enjoy it thoroughly. The guests and nostalgia are very interesting and I’m glad that Damian is such a well-researched interviewer who asks (mostly) intelligent questions. That being said, I really hate the way Damian drops these super-obscure references to his...Read full review »

1) Toby Vail is god. 2) Walter doesn’t know how to silence his phone. 3) To date, AFI is the biggest, most commercially successful HC band of all-time.

I love how he invites a lot of artists onto his podcast and gets into detail with very specific questions, and I also like the fact that this is an entire podcast about punk and music! (Plus he is a very interesting and cool guy)

Damian delves deep into punk history and leaves few stones unturned.

There’s so many reasons I love this podcast, so I’ll stick to just one. If you need to check out music you’ve never heard or never heard of just pick an episode at random and pick one or many of the bands mentioned in any episode. At worst it’s an interesting journey into unknown realms of Music....Read full review »

I love love love it. I cherry pick episodes but I really enjoy the ones I listen to. I’m a nerd, Damian is a nerd and if you are too about this kind of music then look no further. I absolutely love his enthusiasm for music.

Cool

Damian’s genuine enthusiasm and love of all things punk is contagious. Great show!

TOAP is the most enjoyable music podcast I have in my rotation. From interviews with folks I am deeply curious about to the ones I could care less about and am always-surprised-by, Damien’s enthusiasm and knowledge about what he loves makes it an infectious listen.

I just discovered this podcast about a month ago and it’s the only thing I’ve listened to since. I’ve been a mega fan of punk, more specifically the 80’s hardcore stuff, for over twenty years. This podcast interviews many of the “legends” from that era, which is rad. P.S. - It’s Greg HETSON...Read full review »

Damian is good but he should be a little more demonstrative / less deferential
phishguts101 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/15/22
I’ve listened to and loved every episode I do have to say Tom Delong’s episode sucked man. Damien you were completely on point but even one of my favorite interviewers can’t make that douche bag sound halfway interesting.
Hddvjrrdd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/22/22
Punk n wrestling are 2 of my life’s obsessions. Listening to D geek out on these very topics is endearing & entertaining. It seems puzzling that 400 eps have past & no talk with Jeff Clayton of ANTiSEEN,this needs to happen. Would also love to hear him talk to Ron Rancid,Matt & Mark...Read full review »

Only just fairly recently discovered this podcast, absolutely amazing podcast. Damon is a great interviewer, the guests he gets are awesome and he knows how to keep them and us engaged. Love the work in the band and love the podcast. Thanks for doing this!

Fun hearing about diverse experiences growing up in the punk scene. Damien is super knowledgeable about punk/hardcore/etc and a great interviewer.
Ktbdwnyndr via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/20/21
That Martin interview was great. If anyone could make a podcast with someone I was interested in that was longer than I wanted to listen to it would be Damian but that one didn’t come close. Great the whole way through.
Let'sGoTaketheSkinheadsBowling via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/06/21
Been loving this podcast since I started listening. I didn’t start at episode 1 but I’m meaning to go back to those older episodes. Damian is an amazing interviewer and his knowledge of punk is mind blowing. I have discovered so many bands/artists through this podcast. Currently listening to the...Read full review »

For almost 2 hours I was worried I was having a seizure.... what’s this “eating chips” sound.... an inside joke I’m not on the inside of ?! Besides this, GREAT EP :) !!! Xoxoxo
spookyruben via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 09/11/21
I've been listening since the first episode a few years ago, and I refrained from writing a review because, well, I very rarely write reviews. 350 episodes in, I've realized something, and I think it is now very clear. With all of the people he has been blessed to interview on this...Read full review »

Always in depth , informative, and awesome. Keep em coming! Xoxo
Lomikey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/24/21
Great guests. Cool stories However, the use of the term “punisher” is entirely overused and makes the podcast unlistenable at times. I understand that the term, thanks to Phoebe Bridgers, has become in vogue over the past year, but it is exhausting to hear this repeated from episode to episode.
Cam Shiro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/07/21
I discovered professional wrestling in 1994 and punk rock in 1999, but it wasn’t until I found this podcast that I fully realized the true crossover between the two art forms...and now I can’t stop listening. As I continue to comb through the vast number of episodes of TOAP, I naturally gravitate...Read full review »

Would love to hear an interview with Aaron Cometbus!
Antonius.Block via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/21/21
Damian’s interview style is straight to the point. We don’t have to listen to the b.s. small talk and get to get down to business right away. The guests are so rad that I generally freak out every episode, literal Gawds of punk rock! Bonus points that the host is a woke bae, and his feel-good...Read full review »

Awesome show. Awesome host. Awesome guests.

Really enjoy the show and started listening to the old episodes when I have the time but they're all being taken down or something. Kind of a bummer.Read full review »

Loved this episode. I’m married, but I have a major crush on Bill Hader.
iamkkuru via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/26/21
Just like his band, the podcast is very high energy but extremely thoughtful. You can see the warm care that he brings to the interviews. So much history here of the punk days as well as the indie music scene. It’s like you are backstage between friends hearing a wonderful conversation. Amazing...Read full review »

The best music podcast out there! Damian is knowledgeable and passionate, and has really become a talented interviewer. Love the diversity on here and the focus on punk that transcends boundaries. Not just for band people, but anyone that’s into punk. Truly special.
Braydor the banisher via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 02/22/21
The host is friendly, unpretentious, and has vast knowledge of punk.
BrianM254 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/07/21
What makes Damian’s podcast so special is his earnestness, encyclopedic knowledge of all of the punk rocks, and complete lack of pretentiousness. He is an actual friendly nerd doing something he’s passionate about. He asks the questions I want to hear asked. Thanks for a great show, Damian. Where...Read full review »

Great pod! So many cool guests. I always check it out. However, the host uses the word “punishment” wayyyyyy too much. Between 50-100 times per episode. Get a thesaurus, my dude.
podcrust via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/24/20
I loved the Vice Documentary series “The Wrestlers” and searched the host online, leading me to this podcast that is about punk and the connections between punk and other genre, including wrestling. Excellent deep dive interviews that explore the depths instead of trodding the more familiar, and...Read full review »

If you have ever even remotely considered yourself a punk or a punk music fan then this podcast is a must. Think you know everything there is to know about punk? I bet you can find out something new and are happier after listening to just about any episode!
vwismoovb via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/05/20
This is all about Damian’s knowledge and love of music.
