Episode 101: Tara Hahn of Half Past Two on disability advocacy

Host Jason Schreurs and Tara Hahn of California ska punk band Half Past Two talk about advocating for disabled people, not only those close to her but also within the punk scene. Tara also talks about using difficult emotions and subjects in her music as a way of catharsis, something she shied away from in previous years. http://halfpasttwoska.com Featured song clips: Half Past Two - "Give and Take" from Talk Is Killing Me (Bad Time Records, 2024) We Are the Union - "Short Circuit" from Ordinary Life (Bad Time Records, 2021) Half Past Two - "Isolated Days" from Talk Is Killing Me (Bad Time Records, 2024) The SCREAM THERAPY BOOK is now available!
