    E36 - "Call To Action" by 504 Plan with Scott Pasch from DCxPC Live Records
    Jun 22 2025
    504 Plan is a high school punk band from Washington, D.C., whose music is as urgent as it is unfiltered. Their debut vinyl, DCxPC Live & Dead Vol. 6, features the explosive single Call to Action and captures both their sweat-soaked live energy (recorded at DC9) and their studio polish (tracked at the legendary Inner Ear with Don Zientara).

    In this episode, we sit down not with the band, but with Scott Pasch, founder of DCxPC Live Records, to talk about what drew him to 504 Plan, the ethos behind the label, and the importance of documenting live punk in the streaming age. Scott walks us through the recording process, and what it means to press something real for a new generation of angry, brilliant kids.

    If you care about punk as a movement and not just a sound, this one’s for you.

  • E35 - "Psyayayduck" by Indoor Friends with Kat and Amanda

    E35 - "Psyayayduck" by Indoor Friends with Kat and Amanda
    Jun 22 2025
    Indoor Friends (Boston, MA) fuse confessional punk and melodic power-pop into something entirely their own, and nowhere is that more clear than in their latest single, psyayayduck

    What starts as a lyrical spiral of emotional wreckage becomes a full-blown cathartic release—chaotic, catchy, and unexpectedly fun.

    In this episode, the band breaks down the writing process behind psyayayduck and how they balance humor, heartbreak, and harmony in everything they do.

    Grateful to pull up with Jon Snodgrass and chat about the "Ghost Trilogy" of songs off his recent release, "Stoked Ghost", that came out on Rad Girlfriend Records late last year.

  • E31 - "Perfect Hit" by Bandages with Shannon Wilson

    E31 - "Perfect Hit" by Bandages with Shannon Wilson
    Feb 17 2025
    I was able to sit down and chat with Shannon Wilson from the Dayton/Cincinnati, OH based band, Bandages, to chat about their new S/T record and single, "Perfect Hit" featuring Joe Gittleman from the Mighty Mighty Bosstones.

    They are definitely in the rock and punk spectrum but don't fall in any particular sub-genre nor try to align to any specific sound. I personally love that about this band.

    If you've been paying attention to the politics in the United States of America at all, you'll clearly understand what "Perfect Hit" is all about, intuitively. That said, Shannon and I had a great conversation about their band, politics, health care, and all the good things they have in front of them.
