    No Rewind | Episode 12 | Pop the Trunk

    Pop the Trunk went live for the first time ever, and there was no safety net. What you heard was what it was. The crew wasted no time getting into it, from a big boxing weekend to the NBA playoffs, bad bets, and stories from the streets of South Philly that you genuinely had to be there for. From there it turned into exactly what Pop the Trunk does best: wrestling history, hip hop history, and the kind of arguments that don't have a clean ending. The main event was a deep discussion on underappreciated MCs — who got slept on, who got jammed by the machine, and who was simply too nice for the world to handle. The live crowd had opinions too, and they weren't wrong. Two hours of unfiltered conversation with nowhere to hide. The first live edition of Pop the Trunk. No rewind.

    KEOTB Bonus Episode | Monsters Don't Sleep (Episode 207)

    The boys are back. Vinnie and Brendan are back for a weekend of boxing you can't afford to sleep on. Before they get into the fights, there's no shortage of news — from a massive heavyweight announcement that's been a long time coming, to promotional shake-ups and signings that are quietly reshaping the landscape. Then it's fight time. Two pound-for-pound monsters. Two cards that demand your attention. Inoue vs. Nakatani and Benavidez vs. Ramirez get the full breakdown — the styles, the stakes, the odds, and where each guy stands heading into the biggest weekend of the year. Predictions are locked in. Pop the Trunk streaming on YouTube, all DSPs and your favorite podcast app. @popthetrunk.pod

    "No Assembly Required" | Episode 11 | Pop the Trunk

    No guest, no filter. Vinnie, Brendan, and Billy go deep on one of hip hop's most unspoken rules — everybody got put on by somebody. From The Jaz (Jaz-O) opening doors for Jay, to Dre's Aftermath becoming a graveyard for careers that never were, the crew breaks down the co-sign, what it's worth, and what happens when it doesn't deliver. Junior Mafia, Wu-Tang affiliates, Two Chains betting on himself — it's a full autopsy on who made it, who got left at the bus stop, and why. Before all that, the guys catch up on shed suspicions, IKEA assembly nightmares, and Billy's kids accidentally dropping slurs at the Dollar Store.
