10/10 You're Great

Creepy Crooners continues with the biggest creep of all: Some guy who sings for The Misfits. Yes, we know his name but we also imagine he Googles himself constantly and we don't want him finding this even if there's only a 1/1000 chance of that. Anyways, join us as we discuss Mistfits' 1st and also 3rd album, Static Age. On her 60th birthday my mother told me she felt like she was supp...

This week Creepy Crooners croontinues with Harry Styles, the debut album by Harry Styles. Imagine if Zayn had called his debut album Harry Styles. Joining us this week to walk us through all Styles' styles was Alivia Stonier (@liv.jolee) of The Alternative, Gut Instinct Media, and too many other things to list here. Did we ask her if it was okay to call Harry a Creepy Crooner to match the them...

You guessed it: the final head of Septheadber (RIP in peace) was Radiohead! This week, we honor their most popular by far album Amnesiac by totally forgetting how to coherently explain that it rocks. If that 5k long sentence didn't confuse and alienate you, how about this one: Now that Septheadber is over we are doing Creepy Crooners, which is also what this episode is (Courtesy: Thom Yorke Mo...

It's just like they always say: Chris is the Gru of the podcast. So when he's out being Despicable He elsewhere, we minions must go solo. Which I guess is me saying that Chris is outta town so Lucas and Charlie watched a minion movie and talked about it and didn't even tell Chris we were doing this so I hope he's very suprised in Mexico City. Also up for discussion: A definitive ra...

After talking Talking Heads we decided to take an easy week and snooze our heads down on a Car Seat Headrest. I am pretty sure I have COVID right now so you legally have to pretend that was funny even though it wasn't. Anyways this week's record is Teens of Denial and we teens (pushing 40) are looking at it with clear eyes, which is the opposite of denial, so you know its true when we say its a 10...

This month for a very special month (of the month): it's Septheadber. Like September but with head in the middle, so all the albums/bands have "head" in the name. Anyways this week it's "the most obvious choice ever" (-Chris, rudely) with Talking Heads' Remain in Light. It remains a good album (in light). Do not call us "oldheads" by the way until we learn what that means. Also worth talking about...

There's only one rule for 10/10 club: Never say there are too many moving parts in an episode title, and also Edward Norton DNI - this is a No Nort Zone. By which, of course, we mean that this week we were joined by David Anthony of Former Clarity who had it in his motörheart to return to the pöd to share his love of Motörhead's Ace of Spades for the final episode of Slot Progust Bites. And if you...

"Room on Fire? I hardly know her!" - Roomba Dangerfield. Wait no, sorry he would've said something about how he never gets no "room-spect" that's better pretend I said that. Anyways this week Slot Progust Bites continues with Room on Fire by The Strokes, the album that Time Magazine called "the one that came after Is This It and it has Reptilia on it." Also up for discussion: America's least compe...

This week we dive into Slot Progust Bites in earnest with Chance the Rapper... because again Slot Progust Bites is a casino themed month and like.. games of chance are what that's called. Anyways for this week's episode we decided to unpack Chance's second and third mixtapes, Acid Rap and Coloring Book. Also up for gamblin' men-discussion (which is what Frank Sinatra called singing): Being corny b...

Chris' endless summer (Mike Love) vacation has continued to plague the podcast so we just did a little episode where we checked a bev and listed every single rollercoaster's make, model, and forecasted date of death-- like instead of talking about music so if you're here for that stay tuned for other weeks. Also since the bit is now like too many layers deep to be desciphered here is a primer on t...

"What is a rose (wonder) by any other name (hit value)?" - Romeo Hanson, MMMBop (1997). This week we find out! And by that I mean we wax nostalgic about some of the 1 hit wonders of early indie adulthood. Does this work as an episode? Probably not but let us know or report your own childhood one hit wonder by calling us at 206-413-8676. 10/10 You’re Great is presented by The Alternative . Support...

This week this quartet (the 4th is the cat) discuss Four Tet and it’s a safe bet: There Is Love in You. Also in our tête-à-têt: The Chris is back in town, Everything Ecstatic whirls around, and long episode lovers are let down (because it’s a shorter episode). 10/10 You’re Great is presented by The Alternative . Support the site and our show on Patreon . Follow us on Instagram . You can also find...

Is this bad Star Wars writing because "Somehow, Christopher has returned". That's right Chris calls in from the middle coast to return to the pod and talk Phantogram's debut record, Eyelid Movies. That's gotta mean a dream right, like that's a movie on your eyelid? Well we didn't discuss that. But what we do discuss includes: an exhaustive review of every Illinois Burger King, it's okay to drive a...

"When the Chris is away, the boys shall slay" -intro text to our gender-swapped Buffy, who is called Beefy in this adaptation. All jabs and giles aside, this week Chris is in the center coast of Illinois so Lucas and Charlie had to do what they do best: panic and improvise. And in this case that meant recommending 9 newish albums, and reminiscing about Chris and how he should've kept us in line. A...

This week Andrew Sacher (editor at BrooklynVegan and host of their BV Weekly podcast) peeked into the TTYG hole and extolled the virtues of The Menzingers' On the Impossible Past. We also got a sneak peek at Andrew's upcoming book Emo Revival: Community, DIY, and Rebirth in Post-Hardcore and Emo (spoilers: Foxing mentioned). Also up for emo-scussion (that's discussion by Carly Rae Jepsen): A furti...

It's raining cats and "Dogs" is something we could have said but didn't when discussing Nina Nastasia's Dogs with Josaleigh Pollett, who much more adeptly walked us through their love of the record, plus shared a WORLD PREMIERE PROBABLY of a new song off their upcoming album, “If I Let It Quiet.” If we three hosts were let to be quiet this podcast might become listenable. Also up for quiet reading...

Ciara joins us for the 3rd time to talk the 3rd record by Billy Talent (google Pezz with the two zs and then filter "Canadian") as it turns 20! That's right its a birthday extravaganza and we "Try Honestly" to get it right. I know that's not the name of the song but it is close, so give it to me. Also up for 2scussion: Golden crocodiles, wherefore art thou? World of Warcraft is the ideal way to di...

This week we cannonball into the 90s with the help of music critic Abby Jones, who walks us through The Breeders' classic record Last Splash, and if you want better writing than this sentence provides, you can check out her work at https://www.abbyfjones.com/ Also up for splashscussion (that's discussion in a tidal pool): We demand to pull the blur lever at Pitchfork, what is the quintessential 7....

It's a music podcast! And Shrek is one of the most musical movies out there! Kind of! Also this one is really bad and does not leverage the hits-- so look forward to our intimate disection of this Dreamworks classic. Also up for donk-shreking: A new hybrid bev that is better than the hybrid donkey dragon monster babies, we wear Julia's jeans for a night, and who could've seen it coming but Chris h...

This week it’s Tim with Will and Chris and Charlie and Lucas and Donald and Ronald and I only made up two of those names so get guessing, clue hunters! Speaking of sleuthing: Will (of Melvic Centre, which is spelled Australian style like Colour or Raisin Brean) joined us to explain The Replacements’ fourth (?!) studio album, Tim. That's right it's Tim Time and I wish we had said that on the episod...

Our episode naming conventions make it sound like we just got married to Kade but no! No one gets married in this episode except for us getting married to the idea of loving Get Married! Let me start this over this isn't working: This week, we are joined by Kade of Swiss Army Wife ( linktr.ee/swissarmywifeband ) who walks us through Glocca Morra's secret masterpiece, Get Married. Also up for discu...

This week we are joined by Sean Huber of Bardust, Steady Hands and Modern Baseball to talk about Titus Andronicus' Civil War/Teen Feelings concept album, The Monitor. I know it's about a ship but I can't help but think they named it after the TV monitor on accident and that's confusing. Name ships differently! Also up for discussion: Wales is a criminally underatted country, what the hell even is...

This week we three sidekicks (under communism, no one gets to be the main guy) discuss The Sidekicks' Awkward Breeds. It's underrated and it has got a bird on the cover and basically all we do is list similar facts such as that. Also up for breeding (discussion): This is now a presidential impression podcast, soda enemas are in (the wrong holes) and Boy Meets World, What About Boy Exits World: the...

This week on TTYG we return to The Cure's classic record Pornography and it goes about as well as you'd think. Also up for discussion: A bev from a California far away is slurped and turfed, M.I.A. gets K.I.A. for reasons of being evil now, and we are not medical professionals please do not listen to us. 10/10 You’re Great is presented by The Alternative . Support the site and our show on Patreon...

This week! You scream, I Scream, We All Scream! That is a pattern in 2026 and we believe in patterns! Hey, that's almost the name of the album we discussed on this episode. That's right, music critic, screamo-knower and fellow Alternative-head Elias joined us this week to walk us through I Would Set Myself On Fire For You's second record, Believes in Patterns. Almost certainly I messed up the titl...
