This week, we're delighted to be joined by John J. Ryan from the unstoppable force that is Keep Flying. If you've seen them live, you know exactly why they're one of the most exciting and unique bands in the punk scene right now—blending high-energy punk rock with saxophones, trombones, and an unrelenting stage presence. We first met the band at last year's Four Chord Music Festival and instantly hit it off,so it was a real treat to catch up with John. We chatted just ahead of the release of their powerful new album Time and Tide, which dropped on April 24. John walks us through the band's journey, their DIY ethic, and what the rest of 2025 looks like for Keep Flying. Spoiler: they're not slowing down. Go spin Time and Tide now—available everywhere you get your music. With Nick away for the intro, Chris is joined by our good friends Gary Yay and Ade Holder from UK punk rock favourites Phinius Gage. We dive into some recent releases from The Ataris, Last Night Saved My Life, Orchards, and Propagandhi. We also have an exclusive first play of the new Phinius Gage single “Masquerade,” out May 16. Ade and Gary give us all the details on the song and what's next for the band. Apple Spotify Instagram Twitter Facebook Email

Orchards are not fun at 3am. The rustling of the leaves feels no longer feels like a nice sunny, breezy day, it sounds like someone is hiding behind a tree somewhere watching you. Standing in the middle of an orchard is a group of high schoolers and young 20 something year olds just huddled in a circle. “What did kim say about the—? “HURRY just start pouring it!” They kick their shovels aside, start pouring the concrete into the hole, and watch as it covers first the hand, then the torso, and now the face. The face of the 15-year-old girl that they held captive for a month and tortured. When they're done, they head back to their cars with their shovels… And honestly? They think they did it; that they're getting away with it. But don't they know? History always repeats itself. A very, very similar case took place 26 years ago in Japan: The case of Junko Furuta. This episode is about a case that everyone in South Korea has been calling: The Korean Junko Furuta case.
