Hey, my mom's basement listeners. You can find our episodes on Apple podcasts, Spotify or YouTube and

Prime members can listen ad-free on Amazon music. Today I have on the frontman of one of my favorite pop punk bands on the scene,

alternative rock bands on the scene if you want to call them that seaway. They are from Ontario, Canada. The singer's name is Ryan Locke

He's the one on the show today and they have a new album out called Big Five that is honestly one of my favorite albums of the year.

So I was stoked to get the chance to talk to them. But before we get into that, let me remind you guys of our presenting sponsor each and every week,

Then I want to see it. I want to see what the people are ordering. So I know what the people are on to. All right. Let's get into this interview with Ryan Locke from CW.

All right, ladies and gentlemen. Welcome back to my mom's basement. I am here with a very special guest. We've got Ryan Locke from CW.

He just put out an amazing album called Big Five. This is an album that I've sort of been putting everyone on to and wanting to talk about with everyone.

So now I'm glad I get to sit down and talk about it with someone who knows the thing or two about the album Big Five. How you doing, man?

I'm doing well, man. It's a shitty day here in Toronto, but you know, it's all good.

So I'm a huge CW fan. I want to put that right out there. Vacation was one of my favorite pop punk albums of, I would say the last decade. It's been in my constant rotation since it came out.

And Big Five, I think, is easily the best album CW has ever put out. Like I'm going as far as saying that.

Yeah. I haven't been able to take it off since it came out. Tell me about like just where you guys were leading into this record to start things off. Before we get into it, like, you know, deep dive.

Yeah. Where was CW coming into Big Five?

Going into Big Five, it's weird. We were like on one hand, there was a lot of pressure to like, one up it and try and get to the next level.
