We welcome Stin from Chat Pile onto the podcast this week for a few reasons. One of them being that their new record absolutely RIPS and you should listen to it now, it's called "Cool World" out on Flesner Recordings. Another reason is that he's an incredibly thoughtful and insightful human being about what art he's creating as well as the fact that ANYONE is paying attention to his band is a privilege. We discuss the best job he's ever had, making "art" for a living and what most people perceive touring to be (ie: tour buses).

One of the hardest working bands in the scene right now, we have Katerina from Escuela Grind on the pod this week. The band just released their new LP and is on the path to working even harder than they have before but we discuss the lack of location for the band, her experience as an only child and internet opinions. She's an insightful human and was happy to dig in deep with her!

Josh is a friend. Josh has created a ton of great music with bands like Neil Perry, Hot Cross, Joshua Fit For Battle and much more. Josh also had a pretty intense journey the last few years to where he didn't know if he was ever going to be able to play guitar again. We get into it all and discuss New Jersey greats, short song life and a whole host of other things. I am glad he is still here with us, and am so happy to share this conversation with you.
