What exactly is this? Is it an episode of TRAPPO? Is it some kind of madcap experiment? Perhaps a commentary on the inherent banality of evil? Grace Jones is cool. Hulk Hogan is a terrible human being. Are we capable of caring for more than one person? What does Arnold Schwarzenegger's beard smell like? Have we summoned the ghost of Pauline Kael? I think we need to call everybody's favorite bio-exorcist. Frag grenades for days.
The madness & the mania just blew our 24-inch guns out!
Please visit the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE) and leave us a comment. Tell us what you think of this... thing. Do you like this thing? Do you hate this thing? Would you like more things like this thing? Send us an email (CLICK HERE) and we'll tell you a secret that will shatter your reality. Follow us on Threads (CLICK HERE) and we'll have a great time sharing GIFs and misery until the sun explodes.
Is this the end of TRAPPO? Stay tuned.

We're trying something different this week on TRAPPO, dear listener. The idea was for each of your intrepid hosts to choose a random album that featured the word "devil", either in the album's name or in the name of the band itself, and then we'd discuss the two albums at length. The final result... well, it's not great. And that's being charitable. Basically don't listen to this episode. It's not worth your time. We would like to take this opportunity to apologize to the artists whose work we discuss in this episode, both Italy's The Devils and Hungary's The Devil's Trade, for such a low-energy effort. You deserve better.
Join the conversation, I guess? You can visit our official blog (CLICK HERE) and leave us a comment telling us how much this episode sucks and how much we suck and how we should just quit because we're the worst podcast ever made. Or you can send us those vitriolic thoughts in an email (CLICK HERE) and that would also be cool. Or follow us on Threads (CLICK HERE) and you can tell us how much we suck on social media, too. That's it. That's all we've got for now. This episode was an absolute failure, and we will try very hard to do better next time.

TRAPPO's Old Music Showcase has returned at long last with a brand-new deep dive on some vintage music goodness! This time around, we're taking a closer look at the psychedelic rock movement from the 1960s by discussing a pair of also-rans that never quite found mainstream success in their time: 1967's self-titled debut album from Nirvana (the original UK Nirvana) and 1968's "Peak Impressions" from Boston, MA's The Freeborne. It's a wild ride, dear listener!
Join the conversation! Tell us what you think of old school psychedelic rock, share some of your favorite examples of the genre, or just tell us whatever else is on your mind. Direct those thoughts to our official blog (CLICK HERE) in the form of a lovely comment. Or you can send those thoughts to us via a sexy email (CLICK HERE), and we'll probably be your friend for life. TRAPPO is also on social media, so follow us on Threads (CLICK HERE) and we'll have a blast shit-posting until the cows come home, whenever that may be.

TRAPPO's Mail Bag is back! It's the show that talks about you on purpose, and this is the fabulous thirty-second instalment!
This time, we're assaulted with a series of bizarre anonymous comments that may or may not have been written by a brain-damaged wizard, there's a little "Deadly Dan" fallout, some eclectic music recommendations are made, TRAPPO sucks, we don't discuss the music of Taylor Swift, extreme examples of abstinence are debated, the ghost of Babe Ruth haunts us all once again, we ramble about assorted chocolates, and a whole bunch of other stuff is also mentioned. You should listen to it.
Join the conversation! Tell us what you think about all the latest new music releases or whatever! Have you seen any good movies? Maybe you should tell us all about those, as well! We like recipes! Share some with us! Please?! Go to the official TRAPPO blog (CLICK HERE) and leave a thousand comments! There's really no limit, so you could actually leave a thousand comments if you were so inclined. You could also send us an email if that's more your style. Bimmy, you could send us an email. Perhaps you should send us an email sometime. We've been waiting all this time, after all. CLICK HERE to do that. You don't have to be Bimmy to send us an email, but it helps.
We're also on social media. Barely. So if you'd like to jump on this sinking ship, feel free to follow us on Threads (CLICK) and Instagram (CLICK) and we'll all sing song and tell spooky stories around the campfire while the world around us slowly dies! It'll be fun!
