100 Words Or Less: The Podcast

In this very revealing episode we speak to Walter Delgado, the vocalist from the hardcore band Rotting Out.

We also discuss immigrating from Mexico, the horrific cycle of abuse and defying stereotypes.

Late one evening the vocalist for Sam Carter, and I hopped on Skype and had a spirited discussion hitting many topics that include getting in trouble with the press, what it's like to almost break a band up and not having a "backup plan".

The guest has been a long time coming but we finally have the incredible Koji a solo artist from Pennsylvania, on the show this week. He's an incredibly thoughtful guy that gave me a lot of time for us to discuss being an outsider, self-examination and continually keeping active. Not only does he create compelling music, but he is very passionate about creating communities around activism and ideas outside of music. He's a very valuable member of our independent music community and I hope you enjoy this conversation. Please donate to the show!

I was nervous. This was an extremely important episode to me as Dan Carlin is someone who's work I really respect and view him as a true professional. His podcasts, Hardcore History and Common Sense, are staples of my listening diet and he has a long history with the world of punk and independent music. We speak about being reckless, the world of newscasting and the early 80's punk scene. This is essential listening. Brought to you in conjunction with Propertyofzack.com.Please Donate To the Show!

THIS EPISODE BROUGHT TO YOU EXCLUSIVELY BY THE NATIVE SOUNDThe vocalist from The Swellers, Nick Diener, is my guest on the show this week and I couldn't be more happy to bring you this raw and honest conversation. We speak about what it's like to break a band up, the transitions that he is going through in his own life and jealousy between bands (which is something very few bands/people discuss publicly). Nick was extremely gracious in sharing his thoughts and we deliberately let all of the coverage of The Swellers break-up subside before this episode was released. Please donate to the show!

This episode brought to you exclusively by The Native SoundI was finally able to peg down a guy who I had been wanting to chat with for quite some time, Taylor Madison from the rock band Superheaven (formerly known as Daylight). He's a great dude with a very dry sense of humor so we got along swimmingly when we first met. In this episode we discussed how it feels and what it's like to change the name of your band, step-parents and social media frustrations. It's a very open and honest chat that I am proud to bring you. Please donate to the show!
