Stay Home!! — with Evan

This week the boys* decidedly did not Stay Home!! (they are in Tokyo) so we're airing a pre-recorded episode** about punk music. It is hard to say more from Tokyo each time I type something good it gets caught in the intercontinental wires, an excuse that I’m sure is true. Fortunately our guest Evan is much better at explaining things so I will leave him to it.*Chris did Stay Home!!**We recorded it two days earlier than normalAlso up for discussion: A Reno reminiscence (Renominiscence for short), Brazilian shoegaze is unearthed, Egg punk drama(?), and an oral history of what it’s like to work at Pitchfork and piss off Flying Lotus.The Guest: Evan Minsker of see-saw. After a twelve-year run at Pitchfork, Evan started his own punk rock publication where you can find in-depth pieces, interviews, lists, you know all the stuff. He also co-hosts Punk This Week with our friend Nina Corcoran where they discuss snacks and six cool new punk records every week. He’s got a boppin’ Discord channel and a bunch of cool projects and events in the pipeline. Evan’s on Bluesky and Instagram and probably other places too but that’s what his website is for.The Album: Hank Wood and the Hammerheads - Stay Home!!
