Josh Goldman is someone that has found a way to make punk rock his job, and he takes it very seriously. Mind you, he still manages to have a lot of fun while performing in his bands The Raging Nathans, The Dopamines and others. Along with that, he owns and operates a killer independent punk label called Rad Girlfriend Records, who have worked with the likes of DFMK, Mikey Erg, The Queers, Western Settings, Strangelight, and more. What started in earnest as a way to release his own records, Rad Girlfriend has turned into quite a record making machine, seeing year over year growth, with this most recent crazy dumpster fire of a year being no exception. Many of his most recent albums sold out while in pre-order, forcing re-presses before they were even released. His main band The Raging Nathans just released a brand new ripper of an album (with a track from that album able to be heard at the end of the podcast), and he's not showing any signs of slowing down at all. During the episode, we talk about what it's like to run a record label... the good, the bad, the ugly. We chat a bit about what it's like to meet your heroes.... also the good, the bad, the ugly. We bond a bit over our appreciation of Dicky Barrett of The BossToneS, and he of course shares some of his favorite bands and 5 desert island album pics with me.

Ricky Schmidt has been a busy man. On top of being a member of the bands Western Settings & Hey, Chels!, he managed has officially entered the world of solo artist with a new album, Palm Trees, that was released in 2020. The album is certainly much different than the aforementioned bands, blending a bit more garage-pop, surf and noise elements into the fold. As is discussed in our episode, Ricky found this to not only be a way to use his newly found extra time to it's fullest, but also gave him an opportunity to really flex his artistic muscles a bit and explore new ground. Ricky moved around a lot growing up, but settled in San Diego, and has lived and worked there for many years now. A staple in the local music scene, he is a staunch champion of his peers during this episode gives shout outs to many of them along the way.

Cuando la palabra punk es mencionada, usualmente la relacionamos con quejas, oposición política o simplemente libertad de expresión sin filtros. Hay una banda de Medellin que se dedico a mandar mensajes positivos y optimistas por medio de música rápida y agresiva. Rogelio y Diego nos cuentan como empezaron en la música, comparten sus ideales humanitarios y nos llevan por el transcurso de una banda que considera a sus seguidores como una familia. Esta es la historia de Tom Sawyer.
