100 Words Or Less: The Podcast

Drummers never get the love they should, but I am here to RECTIFY that by inviting my friend, Tucker Rule, on the podcast this week. He plays the sticks for post-hardcore legends Thursday and his newest band/supergroup L.S. Dunes. We talk about the life of an only child, having/not having a "plan B" and his time in playing with a internationally recognized boy band (The Wanted). He's a great hang and I hope this chat showcases it appropriately.  Buy Podcast Merch Here Theme Song by Tapestry Gold Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Listen to “More On That”, a supplementary podcast to 100 Words on Spotify exclusively Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

Happy 2023 for you and let's start of with this legend of a human being, Todd Kowalski from Propagandhi! He also played in a great band called I Spy for those REAL heads that wanted to go back. In any event, Todd and I discussed prairie life, his political roots/upbringing and the importance of head banging. All important topics as we head into a new year.  Buy Podcast Merch Here Theme Song by Tapestry Gold Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Listen to “More On That”, a supplementary podcast to 100 Words on Spotify exclusively Visit our sponsor Mutant League Records Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

Let's go SLOOOWWW with Bobby Ferry from the legendary doom/stoner/metal band, 16. I think this band is really interesting as they have watched scenes come and go but kept on doing their thing and are releasing some of the best music of their career. Bobby and I discuss the skateboarding scene in the OC, the impact of Pushead on their band and drug use. It was a very interesting discussion with a person I didn't know at all, and now...we can talk about 90's hardcore as friends.  Buy Podcast Merch Here Theme Song by Tapestry Gold Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

Vancouver, BC LEGEND, Kenny Lush is on the pod this week and no, legend doesn't mean old. Kenny played in Daggermouth and currently spends his time with Rest Easy (if you like Lifetime, Shook Ones etc...you will love the band). We get into it about "Easycore", the Vancouver punk/hardcore scene and his life as an independent wrestler. Take your time to get to know him, because he's well worth your time!  Buy Podcast Merch Here Theme Song by Tapestry Gold Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

Jonah and I have circled the same group of friends for many years, but this was the first time we got a chance to actually sit down and get to know each other! Jonah plays guitar in the awesome band United Nations (with friend of the show Geoff Rickley), a co-host of a fun podcast with his sister called "How Did We Get Weird?" and has been a music writer for Alternative Press and Fuse's "Steven's Untitled Rock Show". Needless to say, he's been around and I was happy to dig into Cleveland hardcore, zine writing and of course, podcasting. Enjoy!

Welcome to another exciting episode of the podcast, this time with my good friend Vique Martin who is a music industry veteran who has spent her time working behind the scenes at labels like Revelation Records and currently at Pirates Press Records. She also has put out records and zines under the name Simba Records & Zine. In short, she's a lifer and I was happy to have this discussion with her. We talked about her experience being raised in the UK, loss and building confidence.  Buy Podcast Merch Here Theme Song by Tapestry Gold Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).

The very last in our installment of live podcasts that I did at the almighty Outbreak Fest in June of 2022 in front of a live audience. These two chats were awesome and of course, with great people involved in independent music. The first one is with Mat Kerekes from Citizen in which we discuss video games, working out and UK audiences. Then, I chat with Isa Holliday from Slow Crush as they were wrapping up a whirlwind world tour that was so ambitious I admired it from afar. We got into her background, why they love guitar pedals and a lot more.  Buy Podcast Merch Here Theme Song by Tapestry Gold Subscribe to the podcast on YouTube Rockabilia sells you officially licensed Merch from ALL your favorite bands (and your Dad's favorite band, your siblings etc...).
