Puddle of Mudd - Come Clean (2001)
If you're easily offended by nasal f-words, Wes Scantin's antics (scantics?), or spoilers for the film "A Beautiful Mind", you might wanna skip this one.

Edwin McCain - Misguided Roses (1997)
Post-grunge meets mom rock meets dad rock in the form of a ship-flipping South Carolinian who really wishes he was from Louisiana.

3 Doors Down - Away from the Sun (2002)
Brad Arnold and the boys didn't give us much to talk about, but we did our best. Hope you enjoy. Leave us a rating and comment on iTunes!

Awful Cover Songs
Ever wanted to hear Puddle of Mudd cover Neil Young? What about Theory of a Deadman singing Hallelujah? We didn't think so.

2018 Year in Review
Nathan and Jordan discuss some of their favorite music from 2018, some old music they've gotten into, and even some music that wasn't so good.

Matchbox Twenty - Yourself or Someone Like You (1996)
Let's just say that we were surprised.

Nickelback - The Long Road (2003)
We mixed up the format again by listening to The Long Road in its entirety. Topics include EDM, addition addiction, Chad's dad, numerous Genius comments, chuggy guitars, and Nickelback's infamous 2011 Thanksgiving Halftime Show performance. Enjoy the ride.

Lifehouse - No Name Face (2000)
This episode has a bit of Christian stuff in it. No Name Face is a Christian album, so if that's not your thing, don't say we didn't warn you. Anyway, we alternate seamlessly between the theological implications of Lifehouse and the concept of a Sick Cycle Carousel movie concept starring...Nicolas Cage.

Saving Abel - Miss America (2010)
By the early 2010s, the deterioration of post-grunge was inevitable. Perhaps no album better demonstrated this trend than Saving Abel's "Miss America". If for some odd reason you're nostalgic about that album, you've come to the right place. Enjoy.

Kidz Bop Goes Post-Grunge
We did the unthinkable and listened to 26 consecutive Kidz Bop post-grunge covers. It was a blast to record, and we've left it (largely) unedited. Enjoy the marathon.

Bush - Sixteen Stone (1994)
In Jordan's inaugural episode as a regular co-host, we look at one of the first post-grunge albums ever. If you consider jokes comparing Bush the band to Bush the political family to be low-hanging fruit, you may not like this one. (Disclaimer: in case the sarcasm wasn't clear, we are not actually 9/11 truthers.) You can follow us at @cytmhpodcast on Instagram and Twitter, and leave us a review!

Hinder - Extreme Behavior (2005)
This album is a dumpster fire. Nevertheless Jordan and I thoroughly enjoyed reviewing these Oklahoma Music Hall of Fame inductees. Thanks for listening. Leave a rating or review on iTunes and follow us on Instagram and Twitter @cytmhpodcast

Daughtry - Daughtry (2006)
Jake and I muscle our way through this wildly successful and quintessentially middle American album from former Idol contestant Chris Daughtry's band. We end up discussing the album's ridiculous longevity and cultural permanence, Chris' apparent lack of influence outside of other butt rock bands, and even engage in a post grunge edition of Would You Rather?. (And yes, there is an editing glitch during the last segment. Guys, I'm trying.) Follow the podcast on Twitter and Instagram at @cytmhpodcast.

Nickelback - Dark Horse (2008)
My guest Austin and I take a look at Nickelback’s “Dark Horse” and are confronted with many questions. What was the last book that Chad Kroeger read? Is this a concept album? Is Nicolas Cage still fit to play Chad in a biopic? You’ll have to listen to find out! Follow the podcast on Twitter and Instagram at @cytmhpodcast

Creed - Weathered (2001)
In this episode Matt joined me to talk about Creed’s magnum opus “Weathered”. Along the way we discuss U.S.-Canada butt rock rivalries, middle school bands, Creed’s status among youth group kids, and a potential Nirvana reunion with…Chad Kroeger?
