Bop or Flop

You well rested after that last DP? Because here comes another one. When underrated pop-icon Carly Rae Jepsen released her latest album, The Loneliest Time, arguably overrated pop-icon Taylor Swift decided she'd do her typical Taylor behavior™️ and release an album on the same day. How will these two albums fair in the BoF gauntlet? Tune in as Ehren, Simon, and special guest Luke Miller dive deep...

You ready to get double penetrated? With two album reviews in one of course! We couldn't decide: review Betty Who's latest album "BIG!" or review Tove Lo's "Dirt Femme" so we did both and we brought along special guest Trent Johnson (also known as Portia Potty) to help us navigate through these two albums. What'd y'all think of the albums? We'd love to know. @trentsetter @boporfloppodcast @thereal...

It's another episode this week. With another review. We're reviewing arguably the artist that has benefited most from TikTok's algorithm, Charlie Puth. And joining us this week is BoF veteran, Rachel McGoo. It's a goodie y'all. @boporfloppodcast @therealestsimon @theehren

We've mentioned him on the pod numerous times and he's finally joining us!! Simon's "lover", Eric Van Oss is joining us to review one of his favorite artists, Bjork and her latest album Fossora. It's a kooky experimental sound that really leaves the crew pondering, "what really is a bop?" You'll have to tune in to find out. @boporfloppodcast @the_great_north_land @therealestsimon @theehren   Park...

Hold the press. Hold your horses. Hold the Girl! This week we're reviewing Rina Sawayama's second album (not counting her lengthy EP), Hold the Girl. Will this album hold up to Ehren and Simon's high bar and become a bop, or will it give them Minor Feelings and be a flop? You'll have to tune in to find out. Please rate us 5 stars and leave a review! @boporfloppodcast @theehren @therealestsimon

We're diving deep into those R&B soul grooves this week with a review of Ari Lennox's latest album, age/sex/location, but also discussing the early days of our internet interactions. who used to have screen names such as g2gpotty and The Sex God?? You'll have to tune in to find out. @boporfloppodcast @therealestsimon @theehren

You thought we were done with the punk, emo, grunge, rock pop??? We did too! But in another week without much coming out, we had to dig a little and find something to review for our leaders. This week it's just Simon and Ehren as they dig deep into Gen Z superstar, YUNGBLUD and his self-titled album, YUNGBLUD. We also talk about injecting MSG and interacting with the youth. Do we give YUNGBLUD's t...

Here we go again with another album review. This week we review Demi Lovato's latest album HOLY FVCK where she gets back to the old days and dips her toes in to her rock roots. We are joined by Demi super fan Beth Daniel which ends up being quite the dynamite discussion. Oh, there's also lots of convo about corporate queer baiting??? Tune in. You won't want to miss this one.  @ermadaniel @boporflo...

Double header incoming! Y'all, we already had an album to review, but we KNEW we had to talk all things Chromatica Ball so we called up dear friend of the pod, Joey Konkel to join us for a quick concert review and recap before we dug in deep into Megan Thee Stallion's latest album, "Traumazine" with noted Twitter stan, Antonio Burks. There's a lot to unpack this week, from Biscotti drama to pyrote...

After a long market days weekend, you'd think we'd want a week off. And you'd be accurate, BUT! We put our desires aside and thought of all of our faithful leaders out there and pushed ahead. This week we'll be reviewing Calvin Harris' latest album, "funk wav bounces, vol. 2". There may be some bold statements made about this album that will have you dropping your jaws to the floor. BOOTS. Listen...

You may think that this episode is *just* to review Beyonce's latest album, RENAISSANCE, but it is also a very educational podcast about Monkeypox, Taylor Swift's impact on the environment, and so much more. You're in for a great episode this week with special guest, host of Bottomless Coffee, Jerome Evans! @jerometevans @bottomlesscoffeeshow / https://bottomlesscoffeeshow.com @boporfloppodcast @t...

Ehren's been abducted by aliens and word has it they landed in San Francisco (San Fran for short). Friend of the pod Mitch Rood is Simon's replacement Ehren for this week, and he's joined by special guest Sam Arnold! That's right, it's bad bitch o'clock, it's thick thirty....bet you didn't see that one coming at all.    @therealestsimon @iamsam_arnold @mitchellsrood @boporfloppodcast

With the second week of shitty album releases, Ehren and Simon had to get creative. Listen this week as we stay somewhat topical (at least in Minnesota) as we review Japanese Breakfast's Minneapolis tour stop and then dive straight into an album review of the album that inspired the tour, Jubilee. Did either of them buy merch? What flavors inspired the evening? And what leaders did Ehren call phon...

If you had a gun to your head and were forced to listen to Imagine Dragon's latest album, would you? Of course not. And that's why we went back into the catalog of recent releases and decided to tour the eclectic collection of songs within Harry Styles' latest album, Harry's House. We're going song-by-song for this one, so get ready for something a little different this week. Let us know what you...

Gay Wrath Month is upon us, but that doesn't mean we can't recap our Pride Weekends and review what could be the queerest album of Pride Month!!! It's our podcast, NOT YOURS! If you want to hear our actual review of the album, you may need to skip the first 40ish minutes, but we promise that we pull a degrassi and we go there. What did Ehren, Simon, and special guest of the pod Chris Vaughn do thi...

The haters really thought we were gone for good this time, but NO MA'AM. We're back and more chaotic than ever. In this episode, you may hear some inhalations of VHS cleaner, you may hear uncontrolled laugher, and you may even hear us review Drake's latest album, Honestly, Nevermind. Please rate us 5 stars on Spotify/Apple Podcasts!! @boporfloppodcast @theehren @therealestsimon

Take a sip of our secret potion bc you're in for a witchy ride. If you're tuning in for our review of Florence + The Machine's 4th studio album, we are requesting you practice patience because we are starting by paying tribute and giving our boots on the ground review of Little Mix's final concert (ever) first. You're in for a treat in this double header and you may learn a few things. 

So many new albums this week to choose from, but a choice had to be made and this week it was Sigrid, with her sophomore album, "How To Let Go". We may or may not have had less than 48 hours with this album, and only gave podcast guest, Carl Dennis less than 7 hours, but we still found a way to give this album a definitive Bop or Flop rating. Tune in for that review, but also the charity event Sim...

You've been manifesting it and it's finally here: our Wet Tennis album review. Listen along as special guest, Tina Ayodele (also known as DJ TNA), Ehren, and Simon take a trip down SOFI TUKKER's intersection of Portuguese Jazz and Dance music to decide if the album is worth of bop status, or if it may have fallen flat as a flop. We may also discuss big city aspirations, owning houses, and give a q...

Take a leap, take a chance, and tune into this fun new episode of Bop or Flop where we take a turn from our normal formula and instead of reviewing an album, we review Lorde's Solar Power Tour concert at the Armory in Minneapolis, MN. Do we give the concert a bop or a flop? You'll have to tune into the episode to find out and probably so much you weren't expecting us to talk about too. @mitchellsr...

Saddle up, cow-people! We're staying on the country road and doing another episode about a country artist, can you believe?? Orville Peck is the name of the game this week, Bronco is the rule book, and Austin Williamson is the game master. Will the boys fall in love with Orville's sultry voice? Maybe. Will the become enamored with his signature style? Who's to say! You'll have to tune to find out....

Yeehaw! We're hoe-down, throwdowning with some country this week, mamacitas! From Duolingo to the real definition of funcle, we dive in deep into many off topic topics with special guest, Britt Murphy. BUT! If that isn't your thing, we also do actually review an album. This week? Country superstar, Maren Morris' latest album "Humble Quest" is the main topic of this week's ep. You're going to love...

Vroom vroom, boys. Get in, we're reviewing Charli XCX's latest album Crash with avid superfan Grant Newsome. If you weren't a Charli fan before, you might become one by the end of the episode, but does this album deserve the elusive rating of bop?? And which song would one podcaster attribute to the iconic Che Diaz? You'll have to listen to find out. @grantnewsomeiv @theehren @therealestsimon @bop...

You could say that the guest this week puts a SMILE on our faces and that we have been SOUR waiting to have her back. This week we brought noted and now third-time guest Kelsie Full back to the pod to talk about one of her favorite artists, Bonnie Rait. The album we reviewed? Grammy award-winning album "Nick of Time". Other topics we dive into? Music/concert movies, Shonda Rhimes, and more. We hop...
