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 normal

Also 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.
