Hello friends!! On today's episode of the Ska Punk International podcast, I talk to Emily and Joe from Take Today. Last year, Take Today released the excellent Skadiving EP that also features a cover of Link 80's classic 'Up to the Top.' Skadiving is a re-imagining of their previously released song 'Skydiving.'Both songs on the EP feature a huge roster of guest stars from bands like Flying Raccoon Suit, Matamoska, Catbite and Omnigone. I talked with Joe and Emily about how they balanced all of that without losing the soul of what made the original song so great.We also talk about some of Take Today's history, Joe and Emily's other projects and spent a lot of time answering extremely unhinged questions from the SPI Patreon.Listen everywhere you find podcasts!Check out more music from Take Today on Bandcamp: https://taketoday.bandcamp.comGrab Take Today's Skadiving split on cassette here: https://www.skapunkinternational.com/product/take-today-skadiving-up-to-the-top-cassingleCheck Take Today playing live on the Left of the Dial livestream Saturday April 9: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hl505w1irRoListen to the new album from Emily's other project How I Became Invisible this Friday, April 8 here: http://howibecameinvisible.comFollow Take Today on Twitter: https://twitter.com/taketodayFollow Take Today on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/taketoday/---Support Ska Punk International on Patreon for as little as $1 here: https://www.patreon.com/skapunkinternationalYou can email the show at skapunkinternational@gmail.com.

What don't we talk about in this episode? I really enjoyed chatting with Andrew and Jessica from the phenomenal band Flying Raccoon Suit about their introduction to music, ska, and ultimately the beginning of their band. Even more interesting, we talk about Garfield the cat's possible adulterous relationship with another famed feline , and we talked about marrying cousins. Check this episode out ASAP!

This pod has energy, the kind we think you really need! Checkered Past return to St. Louis to finish the history of Indie-Ska superstars, Mu330! Andrew from Flying Raccoon Suit returns and this time brings along his bandmate, Jessica to gab with Celine and Rob about their bands origins, their future and the validity of melodicas. After, they discuss the final 3 albums of Mu330 including their controversial holiday album, their critically acclaimed final album and their relative inactivity in the past 2 decades. Plus: a rousing game of What's My Worth Again? that Rob definitely kept score on. It's a great day to adopt a hiway! Hosts: Celine + Rob Editor: Arianne Engineer: Joey

This week we are excited to bring on YouTube music critic Justthony Skanktano...or sorry Anthony Fantano. Justthony Skanktano is the name he used on his review of Jeff Rosenstock's SKA DREAM, which he gave a Strong 8, a better score than he gave NO DREAM, the original non-ska version of the album. He even placed SKA DREAM in his top ten records of 2021. So obviously, we had to bring Skanktano...sorry Skanktano on the show and talk about ska. And he had a lot to say. Since reviewing SKA DREAM, he's also reviewed Catbite's "Nice One," and randomly shared Flying Raccoon Suit's "Afterglow" record on Twitter. We also found during this interview that in his younger years, he's listened to plenty of ska and has attended (and skanked at) several ska shows. He recounts, with vivid imagery a life-changing Flaming Tsunamis show from back in the day. We also ask Anthony for his opinion on the new crop of ska bands, what his roommate Cal Chuchesta thinks of ska music, and at the very end, we even get his review of this very interview. You're going to want to hear his insights on our ska conversation! Check out bonus "Behind The Curtain" episodes, exclusively available on our Patreon at www.patreon.com/indefenseofskaThis week, you can hear what we thought of Anthony Fantano's interview. We had a lot of thoughts about his rating system and how the algorithms filter the music everyone is listening to. Adam tells a story about Link 80 touring Europe. And I reveal the question I didn't get to ask Anthony. It's all there on our latest Patreon exclusive Behind The Curtain episode

Woah, what a year it's been! There's been so much great and fun ska that's come out in last few years! Oh yes, it's been an embarrassment of riches and never been a better time than to be a ska fan!

Hard Times recently declared Flying Raccoon Suit to be the best ska band out of Mississippi. But, as good as they are, they don't have a lot of competition—they don't live in an area filled with ska or punk bands. But part of their charm is this very thing—they bring different influences and life experiences to ska.This is especially apparent in their new highly diverse album, Moonflower, which was released on Bad Times Records on November 3rd. This week, we bring on FRS members Andrew Heaton and Jessica Jeansonne to discuss the band's history, life on the Mississippi Gulf Coast, and their excellent new record. But we also talk about Garfield, Jessica's cartoon character voices, how Andrew plays guest horn in every band, growing up steeped in jazz, and how they searched high and low for the weirdest pizza on tour. We also talk about NOFX's “Darby Crashing Your Party” music video, which took its premise from Flying Raccoon Suit's “Swan Song” video. We talk about guest horn player Eric Molina getting stuck in Canada. And we talk about Duck's upcoming horror movie, Amityvillenado. Plus, we learn the truth about Flying Raccoon Suit: They're just a bunch of anxious goobers. If you'd like to support us and listen to early access, ad-free episodes with bonus content, check out our Patreon!
