The Pickle and Boot Shop Podcast
The frontmen for Ska/Punk BEHEMOTHS Five Iron Frenzy and The Insyderz have joined together like Voltron, or Siamese twins to take the podcasting world by storm! Reese Roper and Joe Yerke figured that they have already conquered the music scene to the point where pumping out hits isn't even challenging anymore, so why not toss their pickles into the podcasting ring? The Pickle and Boot shop is a nostalgic peek behind the curtain of what was the Christian Music Scene, behavior modifications, Mike Herrera and much, much, more!

Episode 175 - The Worst Kept Secret
In today's episode, Joe confesses his long-standing dislike for Led Zeppelin and Pink Floyd, despite repeated attempts to enjoy them. The hosts then take a serious turn to address Contemporary Christian Music’s (CCM) “worst-kept secret” regarding Michael Tait, including his admission of drug and alcohol struggles, homosexuality, and claims of unwanted touching. It’s a candid discussion on the allegations against Michael Tait and the dark side of CCM.
