Radio Harvester

WHATS GOOD INTERNET this month's guest is the delightful and charming Raquel Namuche who I met because she yelled at me on the street and we've been friends ever since. We talked about her childhood in Lima and Queens, getting into punk at ABC No Rio, finding other immigrant punk kids in the Migra Punk scene, becoming involved with activism as a teen at Charas/El Bohio, and how that ultimately led to her work today with Ridgewood Tenants Union. This is the article about nazis in Ridgewood that we talked about. You can listen to the Huasipungo discography that I mentioned in the outro here.

Heavy hitter alert. This month I talked to artist, activist, scholar, illustrious zine maker, and my very old friend Mimi Thi Nguyen about coming to the US as a refugee as a child; getting into punk through Maximum Rocknroll; falling out of love with punk because of a bunch of shitty men involved with MRR; falling back in love with punk through Evolution of a Race Riot, a zine project she made in response; connecting the dots between her refugee experience and the legacies of US imperialism informing her work as a scholar; the statement she wrote about the massacre in Atlanta. Plus I talk a bunch of shit about pop punk and threaten to break a 50 year old's glasses. We didn't talk about the Legend of Billie Jean, and that's my fault, but you should read Mimi's old Punk Planet column about it.

Erin Yanke fuckin rules. I asked her on the show to talk about her incredible podcast, It Did Happen Here, but we also touched on her band Noxeema, the film she worked on, Arresting Power, growing up in Humbolt and the Bay, interning at NPR, and I somehow forgot to ask about the fucking DEAD MOON BOOK!!! This is why you gotta keep your notes in front of you when doing interviews and not wander around your house like a toddler. This is a good one so please listen, and remember to rate review subscribe whatever in all the places you can do that I need affirmation.

This month I talked to Elizabeth Whitney, my dear friend in New York who is an empowerment, sex, and wellness coach and the only person I've ever seen wear a Supreme fanny pack on her waist. Imagine the freedom! We talked about being born into a Christian cult, the Footloose soundtrack, her seemingly innate interest in fashion, getting into cigarettes and punk in the psyche ward at 14, her struggles with disordered eating, running away to live in the Bay at 16, finding community while living in a punk house for 20 years, getting over shyness through waitressing, how moving across the country can be alienating but shift your outlook, training to be a sex coach. There's too much to mention it all but it's an incredible conversation. There was another issue with the audio syncing incorrectly, so about halfway through it starts to sound like Elizabeth is interrupting me all the time, but she isn't! She's very considerate. It's just the internet fucking up.

Talked on the phone with my cool friend Marissa Chavez from Austin, TX, about her wild childhood, her outlaw family, dropping out of high school to sell weed, oogling around the American West trying to find the best heroin, getting sober, staying connected to the streets through photography , her handmade t-shirt label Official Bootleg, and so much more. Marissa is a magnetic personality and her kindness, generosity of spirit, and willingness to connect and share with others are center stage in this interview. The animals you hear in order of appearance: Marissa's cat Alice purring, my cat Growler screaming, my dog Rubi barking. There were some unexpected issues with the phone recording software, and so for a time at the beginning our conversation is slightly out of sync and it seems like we're talking over each other. I did my best to get rid of the worst of it, but try to bear with it, because it goes away eventually and this convo is too good to miss.

This month I talked to my friend and yours, Jolie M-A! We discussed her freak on a leash childhood in Miami, discovering punk through Facebook stalking older kids she had a crush on, Gina Gershon in the movie Bound, her time working posting bail in the NYC court system with Bronx Freedom Fund, and bands Ribbon Stage, Tens Unit, Boys Online, and more. Jolie rules! For more information about Life Harvester Radio visit http://www.colinhagendorf.com/audio. If you enjoyed this episode please rate, review, and subscribe wherever you listen.

This month I talked to Ana Armengod about growing up in Mazatlan, Sinaloa, MX; her wild adolescence in Mexico City; distributing anarchist propaganda on Warped Tour; dealing with deportation from the US and the arbitrary violence and cruelty of immigration in this country; singing in her hardcore band De Rodillas; her work as an artist & educator. The conversation gets pretty rough at times, so heads up: we discuss sexual assault, deportation, kidnapping and many other forms of violence. Ana is amazing, and I feel so lucky to have had the opportunity to have this conversation. I hope you enjoy listening to it. Make sure to listen to De Rodillas and check out Ana’s instagram.

This month I talked with Nick Anglin of Black Young and Educated, about Civil Saturdays, BYE’s ongoing Saturday afternoon protest against PA Section 508 which gives police discretion to use lethal force when they “perceive danger,” organizing in this current moment, building sustainable movements, and where he sees BYE turning their attention once 508 is amended.

In early March I interviewed Paula Martinez of Demystification Zine and now I can whisk you away to a time before we were all sheltering in place. Paula rules and her zine Demystification rules, and she talked to me about her Harmony Korinne childhood in Brazil and Broward County, beatdown hardcore, finding riot grrrl zines on Tumblr, haircut patterns, what it's like to work collaboratively with a perfectionist when she herself is a slob, and SO MUCH MORE. It's a really good convo and I hope you like it.

What is there to say about Jimmy Webb that hasn’t already been said in one of his countless profiles, anecdotes, eulogies? I figured it would be good to let Jimmy speak for himself. One thing that really stood out to me was Jimmy’s fond recollections of Studio 54 and the world of disco, lending some first person credence to something we knew all along—that punk and dance music communities have been linked on their margins by cool queers since both began. But that’s me. There’s so much more in this interview that’s worth hearing—from listening to Lou Reed down by the crick in his podunk hometown to backstage at the Apollo with Guns’n’Roses in the year 2010 (what a psychotic series of words).Jimmy and I weren’t friends, I just knew him from shopping (or browsing and not buying) at Trash & Vaudeville as a teen, and like everyone else who ever met him, I have a few stories about him convincing me to buy my jeans two sizes too small. After he died last week, my friend Mikey, who was very close with Jimmy, mentioned that he had conducted this interview for a podcast that wasn’t meant to be, and we decided to put it up here so that people could find it. So here it is. Please give it a listen. RIP Jimmy. Get on the email list at lifeharvester.substack.com

This month I talked to Tay Simms (of TAZ, Terrorist, Twisted Thing, Penis Boys) about growing up in an immigrant neighborhood in Ottawa, dropping out of high school, having an FBI snitch infiltrate the punk house, grief and loss, the gig as collective catharsis, and so much more. This conversation was incredible to have and I hope it's just as good for you to listen to.LINKS!T.A.Z. tapesTerroristTwisted ThingPenis Boys are maybe not on the internet yet and if they are I'm not making my way through the search results to find 'em.Life Harvester Patreon Get on the email list at lifeharvester.substack.com

What's good! Radio Harvester is back and we're starting Season 3 strong with a longer cut of a 2015 conversation I had with Brontez Purnell, because my girl won a MOTHERFUCKING WHITING AWARD and we're all very proud of him. This conversation is a little rambly but I think Brontez is so charming I didn't edit out too many of his ADD ass tangents. We talk about writing books, artistic practice, dance, being a multi-disciplinary multimedia queen in a digital age, garage rock as a haven for boring white boys, and more. I don't know if Brontez got a website but if he does I can't find it so just check out his nasty instagram or read about him in Vanity Fair. https://www.instagram.com/brontezpurnell/ https://www.vanityfair.com/style/2018/03/whiting-award-ceremony-winners-2018 Get on the email list at lifeharvester.substack.com

This month's interview is with John & Megan from Street Eaters! This is the first extended cut of an older, shorter podcast. I intended to put it out a few weeks earlier so it would be out while they were still on tour, supporting their new record The Envoy out soon on their label Nervous Intent Records but I fucked up and it's too late and they're home now. What are you gonna do! I think John and Megan are both really cool, smart people and I'm very happy to have spoken to them. Also this interview took place at Carmine's Original on Norman Ave in Greenpoint! What a place, one of my historic favorites. RIP.

This podcast almost broke my computer! I just got it out of the shop and the first thing I did was make sure the episode was safe because lemme tell you, folks, this episode is a doozy. Firstly, it's the first episode not recorded in a pizzeria. Wanna know why? Because I live in Texas. Instead, I sat down with multidisciplinary multimedia artist Kenya (Robinson) at Taqueria Los Jaliscienses, one of the only Mexican restaurants in the world where the Jamaica isn't too sweet for me. We discussed growing up in Gainesville, her unconventional path to life as a working artist, navigating the art world as a black woman, why she puts parentheses around her name. Check out Kenya's radio shows on Clocktower FM and if you wanna know more, as she puts it "I'm googlable." This episode ended with a clip of the song I'm Sick by Bondage . Get on the email list at lifeharvester.substack.com

This month I sit down with Ted Leo and we talked about his punk roots in Jersey, why going to college is stupid, how to dress well as you get older, Skrewdriver records, touring, etc, etc etc. Ted is a handsome mensch who makes good music and you should listen to what he has to say! He has a new record he's kickstarting, so bless him with some cash. If you're wondering why we didn't talk about the current political climate it's because this interview happened a long ass time ago! Luckily, Ted was on This Week In Atrocity last week talking about the artist's place in the current political climate and it's a great convo, so if you can't get enough of the man TL, listen to that.

I've known Cindy Crabb for about ten years but she's been doing zines for way longer than that. We talk about her trajectory from being a weirdo teen in Minneapolis who was curious about punks but didn't quite know where she fit to her decision to losing faith in everything and moving to Portland to finally deciding to "access the rage" and be a punk in the Bay.

It is SHOCKING that Golnar and I had never actually met before this interview. We have all the same friends, we're the same age, both spent our teens lurking at No Rio, I used to go to shows at her old house Jane Doe when I was in my early 20s. And Golnar is as cool as it is weird that we didn't already know each other (very cool). During this interview Golnar claims to be the only punk. We also discuss the pros and cons of growing up in the 90s vs. growing up on the Internet, Golnar's time as coordinator of Maximum Rocknroll, and B|ta'arof (http://www.btaarof.com) the Iranian culture magazine that she edits now. We don't talk about Golnar's band In School (http://inschool.bandcamp.com), but check them out, they shred.I neglected to mention this in the actual recording because I'm a dunce, but we ate at Louie's Pizzeria on Baxter Ave in Elmhurst and the pizza was fucking GREAT.
