PPA - AJ Dungo

What this episode covers

First off, I had some internet issues, so the episode gets cut off at the end (like when we talked to Colin). Sorry!Second, I included some music cues to add context to a few points AJ and Brandon make (like when we talked to Laura and Tripp).Third, we talked to AJ. He's Brandon's friend going back to middle school when AJ'd tap on Brandon's window to ask him to skateboard. They've supported each other through their cultural journey through skateboarding, punk, and noise music and are now exhibiting the fruits of that journey with their upcoming graphic novel history on the history of skateboarding.We don't get much into his illustrating, but you can check out AJ's work on his website: https://www.ajdungo.comYou can also hear more from his former band, Bear Flag Republic, on their bandcamp, which features a free download of their sole album. The episode opens and closes with them. There's also a little clip in the middle to exhibit just how p r e t t y they are. These tracks were used with permission from the band.I think we'll be back with another episode before my annual Christmas music podcast with my buddies Jill and Josh. J&J Christmas, as they're generally referred to.Bye bye
