We ordered 200 chicken nuggets and sat in my mom's SUV while we tried to eat them all. We talked about star wars whilst eating.

Why is Ska called Ska? What is syncopation? How many chicken nuggets can the average podcaster eat? In this episode, none of these questions get fully answered. But we do argue about them. Also, Alex ditched us for this one. Friggin Alex.

The boys are back for a Brainmosh halloween! Dryden and Bretto welcome Alex and Brennan to the show for a moderately spooky episode featuring potatoes, Tom Hardy, Weird Al, and of course a few ghost stories! All this takes place while Alex does some Laundry. 

The boys discuss KFC, the MCR reunion, and Justin Bieber's Christmas Album

Welcome to the first every MiniMosh! In this mini episode we sit down with Brody - a passionate young metalhead - to discuss his personal favourite heavy metal albums of all time!

Its the end of the world as we know it! In this episode Dryden and Bretto discuss the end of the world, where the idea of an apocalypse comes from, and how humanity might just one day succeed in making ourselves extinct! (All this with a little help from some 80s metal tracks, of course).

Join Dryden and Bretto as they unpack the history, culture, and expansion of everybody's favourite early medieval seafarers, the Vikings! The guys discuss how Viking mythology and history shows up in the modern Scandinavian metal scene, and whether or not the Vikings ever used psychedelic mushrooms!

For this episode Dryden and Bretto got to hang out with Ben, an experienced hardcore guitarist and physics enthusiast. We chat about metalcore, myspace, and why black holes are such weird and mysterious things. 

The boys of Brainmosh are back! This episode is our first ever Headbang session - a free conversation without any set agenda or topic. For this session we were joined by the hilarious Owen Leeder, who joins our usual metal musings, but also brings us several stories of mosh pits, Mercedes, and McDonalds. So just sit back, relax, and headbang with us!

In this episode Dryden and Bretto dive deep into the mirky waters of human personality with the help of some of their favourite artists. Discussion revolves heavily around the nine personality types of the Enneagram and how these types have been expressed in the works of two very different but equally significant musical projects from Silent Planet and Sleeping at Last.

Welcome to Brainmosh, the podcast that combines heavy music with heavy questions!  In this episode Dryden and Bretto introduce themselves, their music tastes, and their academic interests. Discussion ranges from sober-minded anarchism to Swiss folk metal.
