100 Words Or Less: The Podcast

Rest in Power to Gared O'Donnell. This conversation originally was published in 2012 and was one of the first conversations I had for this podcast. He was a special human and I am saddened that he is no longer with us. Listen to this episode and listen to the entire PMFS catalog...it's well worth your time.

I am very pleased to welcome prolific solo artist, Emma Ruth Rundle to the podcast. She just just released an incredible new LP called Engine of Hell that is some of her best work, so I had to dive in and chat about the early 2000's in the LA music scene, her tumultuous childhood and her proclivity to collaborate.

My new friend Chris Teti from The World Is...and Silver Bullet Studios ducks into the podcast this week with amazing results! We dive into DIY transitions, eclectic music tastes and why his grandmother thinks tour is like American Idol. Joking aside, Chris is a very devoted dude to the DIY music scene and I hope you enjoy the conversation!

You read right? You should because it's like...really fun and stuff. One person you should definitely become intimately familiar with is the author, music nerd and all around good guy, Dan Ozzi. He just released a new book called Sellout in which he chronicles all the up's and down's of bands from our beloved indie community jumping into the big pond of MAJOR LABELS. Joking aside, Dan's book is a incredible piece of work and I had to have him on the pod to punish him about Staten Island, The Cable Car Theory, writing and so much more.

A man of many talents, Geoff Garlock from Orchid, Panthers and his most recent project Low Estate comes to hang with us this week. He's also the host of such podcasts like Docs Till Death and The Cannon Canon so as you can see, he's a busy dude. We discuss his history with comedy, growing up with Connecticut hardcore and the "glory days" of Vice. It's a really fun discussion so pull up a chair and come hang out.

What a damn band. Snarls hails from Columbus, Ohio and released an incredible debut last year that I fell in love with so naturally, I had to pick the brain of someone in the band so here we are. Chlo White sings and plays guitar in the band and we discussed her suburban upbringing, emo and wearing your heart on your sleeve. This was an emotional conversation and loved having it.

I'd love to welcome my friend Karl Hensel on the podcast today. He runs the show at Kings Road Merch (you have undoubtedly ordered vinyl or shirts from them in the past) and plays in a band called Desperate Acts. He's a music industry lifer (with Kings Road and previously with Bridge Nine Records) and spent a lot of time on the road with Holding On and Martyr AD and I was happy to pick his brain about that journey.

Hot damn! We have Brian Cook from Russian Circles, Botch and most recently, his newly released solo project Torment & Glory on the podcast this week. I have admired all of his musical endeavors (if you haven't, also listen to Roy) and was glad to be able to wander around in his brain and discuss why Botch covered a classical song, his sexual identity and the culmination of his solo project.

Dale from The (damn!) Melvins is hanging with us on the podcast today. It's a wide ranging chat that hits on life in Aberdeen, playing the drums and working within the major label system not to mention how the band has been able to make a career out of being adventurous musically. Dale also does a killer Keith Morris impression as well.

Mr. Mike Kinsella is on the damn podcast today. The man behind bands like American Football, Owen, Cap' N' Jazz and Owls agreed to let me punish him for an hour and I was happy to oblige. We discuss the unexpected rise of American Football, being resilient and of course, midwest emo. In all honesty, I was thrilled to have this conversation because his music has been highly influential in my life.
