The Aging Punks Complain

41 ”2021, What The Fuck Happened?” with Sal Didonato

This week the punks hang out with Ray’s long time friend, Sal! With a more serious tone for this episode, we sit back and reflect on the last eleven months or so, and how it got us to where we are in this strange, alternate timeline that no one saw coming. Has the pandemic really changed who we are as people? As a society? For better or worse?

40 ”False Plagiarism Accusations” with Rissa & Casey

This week Rissa and Casey join us to get something off their chests; all music is the same, and it’s always false accusations of plagiarism. Songs can only be so different from one another, where do you draw the line between a copy or an homage? Or just a normal chord progression that sounds like another?

39 ”Being Expected To Have Children” with Angie Kamping

This week the punks hang out with Angie Kamping, and delve into the concept that is being “Child-Free” and how people treat you when you are. Children are great sometimes! But there should never be judgement on someone’s choice to avoid having children.

38 ”Scammers & Telemarketers” without Ray, Bella, or Eric

The punks were too busy to do an episode this week, so here are some greatest hits from Derek Smacklund's phone call albums to hold you over till next week.

37 ”Overproduced Records” with Dylan Tasch

Dylan Tasch, a local audio engineer and music producer, sat down with the punks to discuss their dislike for overproduced music. Of course, we can never stay on topic so we segue through our unraveling minds and end up all over the place! We talk a bit about the “music business” and pizza and how Pennsylvania isn’t even real.

36 ”Nature vs. Social Media” with Melissa Oliver

This week we hung out with the wonderful person you heard about on last weeks episode. Melissa Oliver leads us through the shit that gets under her skin. One of our more passionate guests as of late, Melissa tells us all about those terrible people balls deep in the shit that is their phones, and how it affects everyone around them. We touch base on climate change, litterers, and our neighborhoods.
Melissa’s advice?
Don't spend all day inside on your smartphone. Go outside and feel the grass on your bare feet.

35 ”Secretive Family Shit” with Niklas Oliver

Surprise! Your family may not be what you thought it was.

34 ”Insurance”

Every American knows the struggle. You’re either too broke to afford it, or you go broke trying to afford it. Health insurance is there ‘in case shit happens’ to you, and for insurance providers to attempt to ring you dry of everything you’ve got, if you can even find a doctor to see you. To call it a scam is an understatement.
Learn how the punks deal with medical bills and their poor experiences with healthcare!

33 ”How Social Media Has Changed Music” with Matt Charles

This week the punks duke it out with Phillyhead Matt Charles; the mastermind behind Do-It-Now T Shirt (@doitnowtshirts) and Assemble (@assembletheband)! We grapple with nostalgia and how social media has changed the music scene over the last decade (or two). From booking tours to finding shows and promoting music, we cover all the bases of where we have been to where we’re at now.
You can check out Assemble’s new music video on their new YouTube channel now or stream them on your favorite streaming services!
