The Butch and Chris Show

We take the show on the road, recording at the beautiful Persimmon Ridge Resort & Disc Golf with owner Steve Jones. The topics include ...well a lot of stuff, but mainly we talk music. Specifically, albums considered to be great classics, but we look for the weakest songs on those albums.

Movie soundtracks used to be a thing. I mean, they still are, but in the 70's and 80's movie soundtracks were a big dang deal.

Ah, the topic comes around almost every Summer. Hot weather. Butch and Chris talk about the good and bad of Summer in The South. Also, breaking wind in church. Because we are high class like that.

Guys, it was a tough week for Gen X. We lost icons this week. Malcom Jamal-Warner, Hulk Hogan and Ozzy Osbourne. This week we pay tribute to the man who helped define what heavy metal and hard rock is today. We talk about the one and only Ozzy!

The guys talk about growing up in the 70's and 80's and how younger people just have no idea how different the world was back in the day. Hey! It's old dude remembering stuff!

We're talking (Butch is complaining....again) about what he thinks is the worst people on Facebook and other social media outlets. Recorded almost live from Butch's patio this episode features not only Butch and Chris, but Debbie Renfroe joins us for the entire show.

Butch and Chris (and later Debbie) discuss video games and compare the gaming experience of today to back in the day.

Apparently, we were not finished talking about the top rock tracks from May, 1981! Also, the Legend of Mike Feehan!

In a topic near and dear to their little Southern raised hearts, the guys talk breakfast foods.

Chris has a new movie ranking system that Butch heard about mere minutes before the podcast. Apparently the movie list Chris found was some random dude in his mom's basement, because...well it was a unique list. Also, we talk songs that we could never hear again and not miss them because...song burnout. I'm looking at you Old Time Rock & Roll.
