What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

I never listen to 2+ hours podcasts, but I rarely miss a Hardlore episode. I just recently got back into hardcore after mostly listening to metal for 20 years, and I feel like Colin and Bo are the best source of info to get me up to speed. As a nerd, I also LOVE how silly and geeky this show gets with its guests, and how vulnerable Colin seems to be with his guests and with listeners especially after Bo's passing. A special shout-out to the recent episode where Colin and Brody King did a walking tour of the San Fernando Valley — Terror is one of the bands that made me a hardcore believer again, and I love the city of LA as a lifelong SoCal kid, so it was a match made in heaven (although Colin might not like me to say that last part being not "religious"). Keep up the good work!

One of my favorite podcasts, if not my favorite, that I listen to. Colin & Bo have a passion for hardcore music that shines through in each & every episode & interview they produce. Neurodivergent (endearing) levels of hardcore punk music knowledge, which is something I'm positive they've heard before, and stories that will leave you in tears of joy or otherwise. They've introduced me to music which has changed my life. Their interviews are incredibly thorough as well, you won't be disappointed in giving these guys a little of your time. RIP Bo Lueders & thank you for everything you, Colin, & Steven have done through & with this podcast and the hardcore scene as a whole 💙

I hated this show until I listened to the variety of content. Now, I’m here to give high praise. Loved the Professor Bo history lesson. I need one of those quarterly. The variety of content keeps this show entertaining and engaging. Collin should have just been a comedian. Finally, PRO-PAIN is the best metal/hardcore band name.

WWPPD · Feb 2026

This is my favorite podcast. I love learning about new music and new things about older music. Bo and Colin have great personalities and make every episode fun, informative, and interesting. I have found my people x X x
