In this episode of Tuna On Toast, Stryker sat down with Doug Robb, singer for Hoobastank. The band's album 'The Reason' turns 20 in 2023 and Doug went into detail about the making of the album. Doug tells Stryker about the title track, "The Reason," and how he had no idea it would become a massive hit. He also reveals why the song's success changed things for Hoobastank, especially when it came to the band's public perception. This interview took place at the Sick New World festival in Las Vegas, and Doug talked about playing on a lineup of early 2000s rock acts and what it was like to have his family in the crowd. Hoobastank are also planning some shows and special releases for the anniversary of 'The Reason,' and Doug gave Stryker some hints for what to expect.
