SB 12 - Dog Problems by The Format

April 14, 2024 18:48 - 1 hour - 247 MB

I like to think of myself as a fun guy, but today we're taking a look at the fun. guy, Nate Ruess. Back before he Some Nights'd and We Are Young'd his way into our hearts, he had this band that all the Ruess heads tell me is the REAL shit. Today I'm joined by one of these Ruess heads to finally confront The Format's 2006 release Dog Problems. Bless Blade Brown for joining me on this episode, find all their stuff here: https://twitter.com/Bladeisspooky http://inthiseconomy.limitedrun.com/ ...

SB 11 - Kezia by Protest The Hero

April 07, 2024 16:42 - 1 hour - 218 MB

This year I've found myself on the opposite end of the Schmeevburger experience, as I have returning guests bringing albums to me that I've never heard before! This week we'll be traveling back to hear how a band feels about the increasing influence of the religious right in American politics through the mid 2000s with Protest The Hero's concept album Kezia. All the love to Erik for joining me, go listen to ICP w/We and Fukkfaace and other projects he's done at www.icpwwe.com! Hit us up on...

Schmeev’s AXEcellent Adventure - Alla Xul Elu, Mauxuleum

November 19, 2023 18:12 - 44 minutes - 101 MB

With the church up and running the Xul boys have been doing so much work in the community! I sure hope nothing happens in the very beginning of Mauxuleum to derail that! Mike, please tell us all about Ma's Linoleum and why AXE got Monoxide on a track for a singing chorus. Hit us up on our socials here: https://linktr.ee/JuggaloJudgment, or get at one of us directly on Twitter @MikeSpohnTheSEJ and @Schmeev, OR hit up Mike on Instagram @StraightEdgeJuggalo. We'd love to hear your feedback, l...

Schmeev’s AXEcellent Adventure - Alla Xul Elu, Church Of Xul

October 29, 2023 19:54 - 37 minutes - 84.8 MB

We're goin' to church! Crack open your bibles and feast upon the nut within as we go on a little hike to see how these AXE boys handle their first EP with this Lee Carver guy! In 2019, Majik Ninja Entertainment was ready to release one of their biggest albums to date in Twiztid's Generation Nightmare. But on that very same day, Ninjas and Xuligans were also treated to a new project from the blasphemous trio of Alla Xul Elu. With their style of dark, sacrilegious rap, the group would continu...

Schmeev’s AXEcellent Adventure - Alla Xul Elu, The Almighty

October 15, 2023 17:49 - 1 hour - 159 MB

We've arrived at an album that I've at least gotten one prior listen to! On VINYL no less! We finally get an introduction to Elu after 3 albums of him being in the name, and who knows how the dynamic will change? In 2018, Monoxide of Twiztid said that at that year's Gathering Of The Juggalos, Majik Ninja Entertainment would be represented. Speculation ran rampant as, to the knowledge of fans, the "beef" between Psychopathic and MNE was still going strong. Mere weeks after The Gathering ende...

Schmeev’s AXEcellent Adventure - Alla Xul Elu, Necronomichron Vol. 1

September 24, 2023 19:12 - 31 minutes - 72 MB

3 episodes in and we're already remaking classic films. Where many would paint this as a group out of ideas, I see it as a group showing bravado and saying "FUCK YOU RAIMI, JUST WAIT TILL WE GET TO SPIDERMAN" Who loves weed? You? You? How about you? Well Alla Xul Elu loves weed. They love weed so much they decided to make an EP about it. It almost feels like you can consider yourself and underground rap artist if you don't, but it DOES help when you have a cool concept around it. Like The W...

Schmeev’s AXEcellent Adventure - Alla Xul Elu, Sci Co

September 10, 2023 18:20 - 1 hour - 142 MB

Wow I made it a whole 2 albums on my own, can you believe it?? Things are going well as we dive into a bit of an expansion of the Allaverse, meeting some new characters and giving them their own tracks here and there. Alla Xul Elu released their sophomore album, Sci-Co Volume 1, just 8 months after their debut, on October 17, 2015. Where Head of Horns was an introduction to Billy Obey and Joe Black’s aesthetic and sound, Sci-Co Volume 1 was a very experimental album featuring a variety of ...

Schmeev’s AXEcellent Adventure - Alla Xul Elu, Head Of Horns

August 27, 2023 16:07 - 43 minutes - 100 MB

In the darkest hour when content is slightly less frequent than usual, one hero arises to drop some some low effort stuff to tide you over until the regular schedule resumes. Schmeev will be taking a jaunt through the works of these AXE guys over the coming however long it takes to get through 7-8 albums! Billy Obey and Joe Black, known collectively as Alla Xul Elu, released their debut album Head Of Horns in 2015 independently on their label Long Live Evil. With dark imagery over boom bap ...

SB ??? - Burger Story

April 30, 2023 16:00 - 29 minutes - 41.1 MB

Courtesy of Erik of ICP w/We, this is a full edit of the overarching story of this year's Schmeevburger intros, made from the full cuts of our recording sessions touched up with his masterful hands.

SB 10 - Play: The Guitar Album by Brad Paisley

April 23, 2023 16:05 - 2 hours - 289 MB

Alright, hear me out. I know country is a far cry from what our general audience is into, even for the Boonshot weirdos out there, but this isn't just ANY country album. Back in 2014, I went to a week long getaway with a bunch of amazing guitarists to enjoy clinics, jam sessions, all kinds of stuff. One of the people I met there later posted a partial cover of a song that I would have thought was from one of those guitarists who's famous only among guitarists, but no. It's none other than Br...

SB 9 - You’re Awful, I Love You by Ludo

April 16, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 232 MB

Around 2008 I was working at a Sunoco, providing an upscale neighborhood with the official fuel of NASCAR, and from time to time a certain song would come on the radio. I couldn't look things up on a phone back then, and relied on writing what lyrics I could pick up and searching them later. That song was the big single from this album, which I quickly picked up and began listening to nearly nonstop. From peppy pop punk, to somber horror ballads, to whatever the fuck Go-Getter Greg is, I lov...

SB 8 - The Lion’s Roar by First Aid Kit

April 09, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 238 MB

I feel like these intros are gonna be a feature length film if this keeps up. ANYWAY back in 2012ish, I was actually out of school completely (I was wrong in this episode, I'm bad at memory), but sometime in that bunch of years, I went to an FYE to grab some random albums based on covers, names, what have you, and ended up with this fantastic folk album. With influences from classic Americana, country, and indie rock, we've got a recipe for some good vibes. Come hang out in the cabana with u...

SB 7 - Beta by The Robot Knights

April 02, 2023 16:00 - 1 hour - 264 MB

In the year 2017, times were...well, they were. In that hour of darkness and despair, when hope was nearly lost, a couple nerds in the month of june finally release to the world an album unlike any before it. Featuring songs about robots, knights, robots who are knights, and how fucking rad dinosaurs are, it gave the world a reason to keep going. At the very least, it gave me a reason to go out fighting to the last. Here we are now, taking a trip back to the undisclosed location of the Schme...

Ep. 97 - W.I.C.K.E.D. by Twiztid

January 01, 2023 18:00 - 2 hours - 338 MB

Twiztid made a bold choice for their last album, having guests on nearly every track. But they never make the same album twice, and so they set out to make a modern horror classic of them and them alone (ish). The JJ Boyz are here to listen to that end result, them and them alone (ish). Do Twiztid continue to improve as lyrical monsters while creating some truly sinister audio imagery? Is a lack of guests a benefit or a detriment to the full product? Is our guest a hater of some of the album...

Ep. 96 - Let ’Em Bleed: The Mixxtape, Vol. 3 by DJ Clay

December 18, 2022 17:00 - 1 hour - 245 MB

Hold on... 3? DJ Clay released 3 projects in a calendar year?!? Clay clearly has to make an impression with the Juggalos, so consistent music is a good way to do it. After a mediocre drop in the quality of the 2nd iteration, could Hatchet House's supreme cutmaster deliver strong in the 3rd outing? Do his labelmates learn from the 2nd volumes missteps and bring us some straight fire? Do we get a cover of one of our favorite songs we've ever heard by Schmeev's favorite artist that this show ha...

Ep. 95 - Mudface by Anybody Killa

December 04, 2022 17:00 - 1 hour - 271 MB

Anybody Killa is someone that we have trouble finding negative things to say about here. Dude is just overall really consistent, even if he created Road Fools. Well after a 2-year stint away from The Hatchet, the Hatchet WARRIOR makes his glorious return. But would the Juggalos welcome him back with open arms? Has he found more ways to talk about how he is Native American? And is it possible that Mike got the release timeline wrong for how we should have recorded episodes? (Find out next epi...

Ep. 94 - God’s Hand by Axe Murder Boyz

November 20, 2022 18:26 - 2 hours - 336 MB

After Blood In, Blood Out, AMB took some time away from Psychopathic Records (because their contract was only for 1 album, remember?). In that time, they continued to hone their craft, both behind the mic and behind the scenes. Crafting their next masterpiece caught the attention of Violent J, who wanted to put them in the underground's public eye once again. But was the final product really the next big thing that the Juggalos needed? Does Otis improve as a rapper and a producer? Who is tha...

Ep. 93 - Tunnel Runners by Tunnel Runners

November 06, 2022 17:06 - 2 hours - 276 MB

Psychopathic Record is the label that runs beneath the streets. Hatchet House is the sub-label of the label that runs beneath the streets. A house is below the underneath of the streets. In a way, you could say it resides in the tunnels. And if you need to traverse those tunnels quickly, you could briskly walk through them. You could even run. Guys, idk what kind of description i'm trying to make for this. In 2008, Psychopathic decided to release a compilation of some heavy hitters in the un...

Ep. 92 - Let ’Em Bleed: The Mixxtape, Vol. 2 by DJ Clay

October 23, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 259 MB

2 releases in the same year? DJ Clay is putting work in! After his solid opening endeavor on Hatchet House, there's seemingly no plans on slowing down with the murderous mixtape madness. Clay has to keep showing his skills behind the boards and even on the mic, but best believe the entire Hatchet Family is going to do the same! Does Clay continue to pick up steam mere months after his first record? Does Boondox return to bring joy to Schmeev? And does this truly contain the worst Twiztid son...

Ep. 91 - Welcome To The Dark Side by The R.O.C.

September 25, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 151 MB

The R.O.C.'s story with Psychopathic Records is an interesting one. From touring with ICP as a member of H.O.K., to leaving H.O.K., inadvertently causing Mr. Bones and Hektik to rebrand as Jamie Madrox and Monoxide Child and become Twiztid on Psychopathic, continuing to use H.O.K. and also releasing music as a solo artist, to patching things up with his former group members and eventually joining The Hatchet himself, he had done a lot in his rap career. Joining Hatchet House, R.O.C. would in...

2022 GOTJ Debrief feat. ICP w/We

September 12, 2022 00:18 - 2 hours - 349 MB

You may have heard that we went to the Gathering this year. A few episodes ago, we gave you the live recording of our Gathering Of The Juggalo Podcasts Live event. Well now's the time to give you our full GOTJ review! And you know we couldn't do this without some of our favorite people, so we got Aaron and Erik from ICP With We to help us out! We spent the whole Gathering together, so it only made sense for us to finish off with a bang. We wanted to get this to you sooner, but we had a lot o...

Ep. 90 - Krimson Creek by Boondox

August 28, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 273 MB

Since 2006, that southern hillbilly you all know and love known as Boondox had become a fixture on Psychopathic Records. With an LP and an EP under his belt, he was quickly building his resume on the label. Slowing down clearly wasn't an option, and so in 2008 he would put out his 3rd release on The Hatchet. Could Boondox continue honing his skills of his southern-flavored wicked shit? Does he open up and get introspective on early traumas in his life? Does he decide to take a backseat when ...

2022 Gathering Of The Juggalo Podcasts LIVE!

August 14, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 224 MB

Holy fucking shit, we went to the fucking Gathering. We semi-joked about it 2 years ago, and yet it actually happened. Thanks to Psychopathic Records and Erik of ICP With We, we were able to participate in the Gathering Of The Juggalo Podcasts Live! No pressure for our first Gathering, huh? What we have here is the audio we recorded on site during that event, where we chatted with Juggalos about Gathering experiences, acts they were looking forward to, and even did some giveaways. Is there c...

Ep. 89 - The Opaque Brotherhood by Dark Lotus

July 31, 2022 16:00 - 2 hours - 334 MB

The season of the Lotus is once again upon us. Miraculously not wanting to overdo it, Dark Lotus would return from its slumber, 4 years since their last outing, Black Rain. Things have changed since then. With the loss of ABK, only 5 petals would remain. New producers would need to step up to fill the shows from prior outings. Was this the Dark Lotus album Juggalos needed after the hiatus? Is this the most focused and on-track record that Dark Lotus would create up to this point? Does Mike c...

Mike Check, Episode 42 - WE GOT MERCH!!!

July 25, 2022 01:39 - 8 minutes - 19.5 MB

It has finally been done. Mike said he'd do it months ago, but it took a lot of depression to finally make it happen: a Juggalo Judgment merchandise store has been made so you can rep your favorite Juggalo Podcast that isn't ICP With We! If you wanna be a walking billboard for us, head to storefrontier.com/juggalojudgment and cop a shirt or something! The classic JJ logo is the only thing available at the moment, but we already have plans for more designs in the future! Hit us up on our soc...

Ep. 88 - Toxic Terror by Twiztid

July 17, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 147 MB

You should always exercise caution when you operate a motorized vehicle. I'm not sure how that fits into this description, but it's true. Anyways, Twiztid was supposed to go on tour in 2007 in support of their LP Independents Day, but for some reason that no one knows to this day, that tour had to be put on hold. In early 2008, they were able to tour the country far and wide, and they even brought a surprise in the form of a tour-exclusive EP.  We heard a little smidgen of it on the first Le...

Ep. 87 - Let ’Em Bleed: The Mixxtape, Vol. 1 by DJ Clay

July 03, 2022 16:00 - 2 hours - 281 MB

2008 would mark 16 years since ICP's Carnival Of Carnage, the de facto 1st release on Psychopathic Records, meaning The Hatchet would be turning 16. Remember your Sweet 16? Lots of kids had big parties, maybe they got a car or something. Well Psychopathic Records got a DJ! Shut up, I know DJ Clay has been around for a little bit before this, but let me have this for the joke, dammit. ANYWAYS, DJ Clay has already made his presence known on some other releases, but it's time to put himself on ...

Mike Check, Episode 40 - Oh Shizz, It’s My Birthday!

June 26, 2022 16:00 - 30 minutes - 68.7 MB

Today, June 26th, Mike turns 32. He could've been lazy and just said "fuck it, no new episode". But he didn't. He decided to grace you with his auditory presence. SO CHEER HIM. ACKNOWLEDGE HIM. Or just listen to this episode. That's cool. We got some info about this year's Gathering Of The Juggalos and Mike gets sappy at the end, so dive in! As a reminder, please go to the link below and purchase the new track by Jigglz (with assistance from Schmeev and Erik). All proceeds go to The Trevor ...

Ep. 86 - Hunting Season by V Sinizter

June 19, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 249 MB

We've finally come to the conclusion of our "Shit We Missed". We laughed, we cried, Schmeev threatened to punch Mike in the skull repeatedly for forcing him to listen to these, but we made it. Today, we talk about a little-known album in Psychopathic's history. Prior to AMB's glorious win at GOTJ 2005 for an album contract, V Sinizter did it first. Unfortunately, due to a number of reasons, the album came and went with little fanfare. Mike was finally able to acquire a copy of this album, so...

Mike Check, Episode 39 - Camp Xul Round Table!

June 12, 2022 16:00 - 2 hours - 373 MB

Mike was so damn excited about Camp Xul that there was no way he could wait to record the new Mike Check for it. So why wait? Mike grabbed his phone, and literally on the final night of the festivities, he got together with his Camp Crew of Robbie (TwiztidHistory/DoItForTheUnderground on IG), Blade, and Veronica to unpack everything from the weekend! This is a long episode, so buckle up! Apologies for the sound quality being on the low end; again, Mike just had his phone on him, so it pretty...

Ep. 85 - Born Twiztid

June 05, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 143 MB

Remember Behind The Music? Now, if you're one of those Gen-Z kids we keep hearing about, that may be a little before your time. Basically, the show was about an artist and their rise (and sometimes fall) to fame. Super cool show. Well Twiztid decided to snatch that idea and put out their own fresh take! This is ANOTHER commentary track, so pop in your copy and press "play" when we say so! Get the popcorn ready, and know that none of us are born normal. Some of us are... Born Twiztid.   Hit...

Ep. 84 - Shockumentary

May 22, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 189 MB

We all remember the story of ICP's overnight success after the infamous "Disney Scandal". With a wave of Milenko's wand, the Wicked Clowns were in the public eye, underdogs of the world who had their hard work pulled out from under them. Island Records made the big save, and they were fully behind Violent J and Shaggy 2 Dope. One such way of doing this was by buying out a dedicated timeslot on MTV to play whatever they wanted, which meant airing a documentary dedicated to ICP and the Juggalo...

Ep. 83 - Para La Isla by Myzery

May 08, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 184 MB

You may remember that Mike wasn't the biggest fan of Myzery in the past. From his contributions to Psychopathic Rydas, his guest verse on "Meatcleaver", and the one track of his we heard on Forgotten Freshness, Vol. 1 (plus Mike's prior experience with the album in particular), he was ready to just shut the door on Les Myz until 2017 or whatever. But the season of "Shit We Missed" just left a nagging feeling for Mike, and ultimately decided that we should give him a shot. So we did! Does Myz...

SB 6 - My Aim Is True by Elvis Costello

April 24, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 236 MB

Way back in 1977 Elvis Costello released his debut album. 13 years later, I was born. 20-something years later I was introduced to said album and determined it was one of the greatest things I'd ever heard, from a songwriting, compositional, really every standpoint. Does Mike have an appreciation for this kind of old-fashioned rock and roll? Does it baffle him as a temporal anomaly, existing across many generations of genres while sounding clean as heck? Will he be able to analyze at least o...

Mike Check Ep. 35.5 - The Actual Mike Check

April 17, 2022 19:00 - 14 minutes - 33.5 MB

Because Schmeev jumped the gun and didn't ask Mike if a Mike Check was coming out today due to Mike's hesitance at releasing what he initially recorded, you got that dumpster fire earlier today. But never fear, Mike is here. Well... maybe you should fear anyways. REGARDLESS, Mike's got some info on some new releases dropping that he's aware of and the possibility of some festival happening that he might attend. Let's try not to jinx it this time.   Hit us up on our socials here: https://li...

Mike Check Ep. 35 - Schmeevburger! Controversy! THE NEWS!

April 17, 2022 16:00 - 18 minutes - 41.8 MB

He is up there. He is up there indeed. It's a special April 17th Mike Check, because Mike didn't wanna release the Mike Check he recorded, so we now have some Juggalo Judgment lost media out there, isn't that exciting? Well Schmeev decided to take over like he does, and give you some actual updates on juggalo news...after talking about some other stuff first. So settle in, and enjoy a nice peaceful ASMR Mike Check. Sorta. I just didn't wanna talk loud today.   Hit us up on our socials her...

SB 5 - Haunted by Poe

April 10, 2022 16:05 - 2 hours - 296 MB

On Halloween in the year of our Lord 2000, an artist named Poe released a sort of companion piece to a novel released in March of the same year. At the same time, it was a tribute to her father who had recently passed, and a way to explore the grieving process of a complicated relationship. In that spirit, we also discuss the complicated relationship between listeners and artists, artists and labels, there's a lot to cover here. Was Poe ahead of her time? Does her eccentric taste make for a ...

Ep. 82 - Gimme Dem F**kin’ Nuggets B***h, Or I’ll Punch Your F**kin’ Face by Golden Goldies

March 27, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 183 MB

You like the Psychopathic Rydas? No? Well, neither does Schmeev. You like gold? Well, neither does Mike. We're 0-for-2 right now... How about we combine the 2 and hope for the best? Around the Riddle Box era, ICP and a bunch of friends and Psychopathic Records employees did a gimmick supergroup that was basically Rydas before Rydas, but everyone had a gold name and had an incredibly limited time frame to write their lyrics and only 1 take to lay those vocals down. Is this album a fun novelty...

Mike Check, Episode 34 - Remembering Things Is Hard

March 20, 2022 16:00 - 25 minutes - 59.5 MB

Ep. 81 - Born Dead by Project Born

March 13, 2022 16:00 - 1 hour - 156 MB

In the early days of Psychopathic, ICP were slowly but surely making names for themselves. The Detroit area would know of the 2 white guys painting themselves up as clowns rapping about murder and carnivals. But Violent J wanted more for the label. He wanted to show that Psychopathic wasn't just ICP. Enter Project Born, Psychopathic's attempt to expand past what ICP was doing at the time. Would Juggalos accept the group? Were guest features from ICP and Esham The Unholy enough to satisfy the...
