Punk This Week

We try to open the podcast by saying “fuck ICE” in unison, which falls apart when Evan introduces the podcast as Puck This Week. Following a tangent about Frasier, “Grunge Frasier,” the essential video of Kelsey Grammer falling off the stage, and Twilight Imperium, we discuss new records by PLANT, Smetti Subito, Two Thumbs Down, Disket, Hot Face, and Tomcat.
If you can, please donate to some Minneapolis mutual aid funds amid the occupation.

As of this moment, our podcast has joined Ruinous Media! We get a check-in from our new pod father Joe Plummer (Tour Stories, The Check-In) before we even had a chance to sweep up all the crumbs from our conversation about Wheatsville popcorn tofu, Jet’s turbo crust, and Cel-Ray.
Discussed this week are excellent new records from DBR, Gylt, Teini-Pää, Rifle, Poor Girl, and Fuckin’ Warheads.

Your hosts discuss being persuaded by bakery case cookies and cupcakes based on vibrant frosting color. Will we chomp into a dry disappointment or feel like a sweet little prince? We’re also talkin’ root beer floats and the lost secret to growing mint. The new year rolls on with great new records by Winged Wheel, Bungee Jumpers, Six Going on Seven, Doe St, Ritual Disorder, and mangled. Fuck ICE.
