Hello Friends! We sit down with Kris in the Pinball loft room at Moe’s BBQ in Denver. The first few moments of the interview have some Audio issues, but overall the episode is GREAT! I’m super happy with it. Big thanks to Danny Sax from Moe’s BBQ & The Gothic for helping to set this interview up. Killer guy and killer venues! We open the show up with “All Souls Day,” off the upcoming Ataris album and currently on the 7 inch entitled “All Souls Day”/”Graveyard of the Atlantic.” You can find tha 7 inch over at: http://store.paperandplastick.com/products/6543 We close the […]

Scars.
I talk about this subject in the intro to today’s show, but its still bugging me. Before I did this week’s interview with Kris Roe from the Ataris, I posted on Facebook if anyone had any questions for Kris. I got the usually snarky shit from all my friends. The one comment that really irritated me went a little like this: “Why on Earth would anyone interview you in 2012?” Kris Roe and The Ataris hit it HUGE, and then they came back down that ladder. We’re going to talk with a ton of people who are on their way […]
Baby Steps.
I’ve never been sure what to use this space for. I thought I would write witty anecdotes about life and the show, but every time I sit down to write something in this little spot, I’m usually still drunk or hungover and the words don’t flow out. I’ve been a little bummed out this show hasn’t taken over the world yet. We’re averaging a small amount of downloads, but as with every parent, we want more for our kids. I was having a little pity party for myself the other day at my day job. I sat back and listened […]
09 – LAURA STEVENSON AND THE CANS!
We are a day late on this week’s episode. Why? If you listened to the Brendan Kelly episode you’ll know my 1991 Honda Civic 4 Wheel Drive Station wagon broke down on the way to Fort Collins. I missed a secret interview we had planned with an almighty enigma. I almost pushed this episode back a week, but I knew you rabid fans would not be happy with waiting a week for the next episode of the BEST PUNK ROCK-ISH PODCAST IN THE ENTIRE WORLD!!!! We talk the origins or Laura’s songwriting abilities, her school career, Bomb the Music Industry, […]
Boatless Booze Cruise
I just got home from working a Sunday night local Juggalo show. Now, if you don’t know what a Juggalo is, I envy you. They are the children of America who have fallen through the cracks. They are the reason why drugs should remain illegal in the country. I’m all for legalizing marijuana, but I really do think its making the children of these subcultures stupider. I mean, White boy reggae is fucking huge right now, and I blame marijuana on that… What the fuck is wrong with the people these days…. So my brain hurts and i need to shower […]
08 – BRENDAN KELLY of THE LAWRENCE ARMS talks the new Lawrence Arms album, The Wandering Birds album and Fatherhood.
Brendan Kelly is an asshole, but he’s my kind of asshole. Today we catch up with Brendan in Denver, Colorado. He’s been here in the state visiting his wife’s family. My new buddy, Zach Lowery was kind enough to allow us to use his office space for the interview. He works for the mighty fine Malenke|Barnhart graphic design agency and formerly ran Grey Flight Records. We sit down with a somewhat inebriated Brendan Kelly. We were short on time, but i managed to squeeze out information on The Wandering Birds, the new Lawrence Arms album, and his new found life […]
07 – ARLISS NANCY talks their SUBURBAN HOME RECORDS debut “SIMPLE MACHINES,” Life in Fort Collins & The Terminator Films
Today we catch up with our good buddies in ARLISS NANCY. Arliss Nancy are the newest addition to the Suburban Home Records family, a heritage that includes Drag The River, Tim Barry, Austin Lucas and More! They’ve got a lot to live up too, but I think these boys will manage nicely. I visit these fine gentlemen at Chris Love’s Chowder House Emporium, which doubles as the band’s personal practice space and recording studio. It is also home to Elway and Sour Boy, Bitter Girl as well. We turn the microphones on and mostly talk about their newest album, SIMPLE MACHINES, out […]
Further harrowing adventures into the beyond!
Welcome back friends! I’m super excited to bring you this week’s episode with Mr. Frank Turner. As you’ll hear in this week’s episode I’ve been following him quite some time after finding him on accident. His songs have had quite an impact on this silly little life I lead and I’m thankful he sat down and talked with me! Not going to lie, I was really hoping for a bit of a love connection. I fell in love with his tour videos and once upon a time I said to myself that I wanted to be his friend. I was […]
06- FRANK TURNER discusses his secret origin, world domination and the siege of Wembley.
Hello Friends! For today’s episode I made the 6 hour trek to Albuquerque, New Mexico to catch Frank Turner opening for the almighty Social Distortion! Frank was kind enough to sit down with me and talk about his early music years and the roads that brought him to becoming a singer song writer. We talk about his upcoming plans for world domination and the daunting task of filling London’s Wembley Stadium. I ramble about seeing Chuck Ragan play a “Secret show” at Marion Street Tattoo in Denver as well as life and death and why I’m willing to rent a […]
05 – NOAH VAN SCIVER from Blammo, The Westword’s Four Questions & Fantagraphic’s The Hypo!
Hello Friends! Today’s episode we talk with Noah Van Sciver, the artist behind Kilgore Book’s Blammo comics, The Westword’s Four Questions & Fantagraphic’s The Hypo. We start the conversation talking about how Noah got into making comics, his family and making comics for a living. Noah turns the mic on me and the whole thing turned into a conversation about The Muppets, our families and our favorite things growing up! It was a fun, loose conversation and one of my favorite episodes to record!

Hello Friends!
This week is a special episode for me. Growing up, I was a gigantic nerd. I know its hard to imagine… I would sit in my room for hours and hours and amerce myself into the world of Comic Books. As I grew, so did my tastes in comics. I still like the occasional super hero yarn, but I found myself more into the works of Harvey Pekar, R. Crumb, Jeff Smith and books like Charles Burns’ Black Hole. The original incarnation of Mostly Harmless Magazine was to combine all my loves of pop-culture into one ‘zine. With this weekly […]
