It’s time once again to bow down to the ferocious ladies of rock! Our 8th episode in a series dedicated to women who bring the fury with style and passion. This time, we are paying tribute to the '90s and the Riot Grrrl movement of that decade. A movement all about women being empowered to express anger, rage, and frustration like never before. Piss off a man; you can fight it out and then go have a pint at the pub. Piss off a woman, and you will pay for it 10-fold. These are ladies that play loud and heavy with attitude and… balls?

This week we are giving a cheers to ten years! Join us as we celebrate the anniversary of the Old Smyrna Firehouse (InObscuria and Captain Content HQ). We get the inside scoop from the man himself on how this relic of a building was brought back to life to all of its firehouse glory and beyond. The building is not only Robert’s home, but it is also an exhibit within the community and is utilized for private events, weddings, photoshoots, TV commercials, and feature-length films. Oh, and it’s where we record the show every week! We celebrate by listening to songs that will get you fired up and leave you with a burning sensation!

Happy Halloween! For our final episode of Gothtober, your favorite grave-robbing, gruesome twosome decides to do some trick-or-treating. Join us as we visit the homes of some familiar InObscuriacs and ask for some audible treats, ear candy, and sound bites! These are tunes that are sure to frighten your guests, so spin them tonight as you celebrate All Hallows Eve!

This week is a very special Gothtober treat as we interview a horror punk n’ metal pioneer associated with MISFITS / SAMHAIN / DANZIG! We’re talking to the one and only: EERIE VON! Open up a fresh can of Absinth and join as we cover Eerie’s entire career from a young Elvis-loving drumming kid, to teaming up with Glenn Danzig as bassist and confidant in Samhain and Danzig, to a solo artist and painter. Apply some corpse paint, tighten up that devilock, and get your fiend on!

Double, double, toil and trouble… This week, we put a spell on you and invite you to participate in our craft. On this 3rd week of Gothtober, we bring you witches from the world of rock n’ punk n’ metal. These are bands named after broomstick ridin’, pointy hat wearin’, green-skinned cacklin’ ladies of the coven. Step up to our cauldron and have some brew!

This week, we talk about the bizarre, the unusual and unsettling, the creepy and uncharacteristic… And what really makes it terrifying and disturbing is that these are true stories… Be prepared to be shocked! These are Rocktastrophes: true tragedies that occurred in the real world of rock n’ punk n’ metal.

This week’s show kicks off our annual celebration of the spooky month of GOTHTOBER! Join the gruesome twosome as they spin some tunes that show a true appreciation of the grim and ghastly! The days are shorter, and the nights are longer and everything turns grey as they once again explore the dark and ethereal world of Goth Rock…

Rainbows, dragons, wizards, and warriors, oh my... This week, we reached out to a Valkyrie and she provided us with the perfect soundtrack of Power Metal! This genre owes a huge debt of gratitude to the man on the silver mountain: Ronnie James Dio. Join Captain Content and Kevin as they go on an epic quest for artists whose fantastical fascination translated to the heaviest battle cries you’ve ever heard! Raise your fists and goblets of mead high!!!

Welcome to Ep. 300! Join us as we celebrate a milestone event by literally getting the band back together! We are joined by our former bandmates, Brandon Still & Kent Aberle, who are currently members of the southern rock juggernaut: BLACKBERRY SMOKE. In the early aughts, the 4 of us shared the stage in the power pop tour de force known as BIG JACK PNEUMATIC. Thank you to all who have contributed to or listened to the show. Let’s celebrate! Cheers!!!

This week, we're discussing bands that feature rock stars: Supergroups and Offshoots. We once again discuss how a band consisting of well-known artists from other bands does not always equal great success. Join us as we delve into some of the lesser-known supergroups and offshoots that didn’t achieve huge mainstream success or lasted for very long.

This week, we consume copious amounts of Toka-Cola and listen to some of the finest obscure Stoner Metal! Join Robert and Kevin as they dive headfirst into the smoky world of fuzzed-out, trippy metal from 7 bands YOU should be listening to. Remember, if you don’t cough while listening to this episode, you don’t get off…

This week, we welcome listener, weekly socials commenter, and all-around cool mother scratcher: Jeremy Patterson to the show for a round of our very special game called, “WILD CARD”! Robert and Jeremy go head-to-head in a very close game of: guess the band being played. Of course, we have the amazing InObscuria banner of logos as a visual aid for the players! You’ll notice a lot of double-point bands from our “Aussie” category this go round as well. Pour yourself a cup of Toka-Cola, and play along…

This week, we get songs and stories from the road from the man whose amazing pipes were on 2 albums that shoulda been huge: Mr. Joel Ellis! His vocal delivery for Cats In Boots and the supergroup: Heavy Bones in the late 80s – early 90s was next level. We had the opportunity to chat, nay, listen to the man about his adventures and musical journeys from Cleveland to the Sunset Strip to Japan. Kevin learns a valuable lesson about not trying to control an interview with rock stars, and specifically not with lead singers. Just let them go, like the crazed animals they are!

It’s that time of the year when the boys get all spiffed up to attend the 2025 Tony Awards! No, not those Tony awards. The ones where we hand out golden pentagrams to bands that wear their denim and leather proudly! What’s old is new again with the re-interpretation of New Wave Of British Heavy Metal known as New Wave Of Traditional Heavy Metal! These are all bands selected for the coveted Tony Award by the man himself: our esteemed Chairman, Mr. Tony Griggs!

This week is an epic crossover event: one about sex, spandex, and rock 'n’ roll, and about bands playing other bands' songs. You can call them: glam metal, hair metal, cock rock, or hard rock… We call them Summer Party Anthems! Whether it’s played straight note-for-note or completely re-interpreted, bands love to pay tribute to great songs that they love! In this episode, we showcase the diversity of how a band can take an 80s Hair Metal classic hit and make it their own.

It’s hot! Damn hot! Especially here in the deep south of the USA, where we also add a layer of humidity for you to chew on. So, with that, the good Captain brings to you some swampy, creepy, backwater blues and southern gothic goodness that runs the gamut of rock n’ punk n’ metal! Go sit out on your front porch, grab your Sunday paper for fanning yourself, swat at those giant mosquitoes, and turn this episode up to 11. Get your swamp on!

This week it’s damn hot, and we are smellin’ sumthin’ sticky, stanky, and funky! It’s time to get our groove on and back down to funky town. So, once again: turn on your lava lamps, slip into some velvet, and your highest platform boots, and pick your funky dos to spherical perfection! That’s right, funky junkies… It’s a Funk Rock extravaganza!

Christmas in July??? No, it’s Goth-uly… or something like that!
