SPOKE with Shawn Stern (Youth Brigade, BYO Records, Punk Rock Bowling Festival)

from Spoke · host Scott Crawford

On this week's episode: Scott Crawford spoke with Los Angeles based Shawn Stern—co-founder of the legendary Youth Brigade, BYO Records and the popular Punk Rock Bowling Music Festival in Las Vegas. This September, the festival will be back after a year long layoff due to the pandemic. Headlining are the Circle Jerks, Devo, and the Descendents (after NO FX had to withdraw from the bill because of the reaction to their onstage comments from the festival in 2017). Stern discusses this candidly as well as being an entrepreneur, the politics of punk, NYC hardcore and the Thompkins Square Park show last month, aging musicians and their changing political views, the legacy of Trump and much more. Intro/Outro music provided by Michael Hampton and Sohrab Habibion. https://punkrockbowling.com/
