punk this week podcast 43: panic shack + scud
A meditation on graveyard prog metal, televised snack crimes, and doing The Secret for jug punk.


Punk This Week is see/saw’s weekly podcast from co-hosts Evan Minsker and Nina Corcoran—a discussion of the latest and greatest in the world of punk rock. We talk about six new punk records we’re loving from the past week.
Our hosts ponder if Chester Cheetah has too many snack subsidiaries going at the same time, and then snack talk extends into punk talk with a revelation about Fiddle Faddle product placement. We brought records by Panic Shack, Scud, Catchin’ Yetis, Visual Learner, Jug & the Bugs, and FRENZY.
Also discussed: Michael Stipe (bye!), what’s on the rider for the graveyard prog metal show, and how jug punks are busting MJ Lenderman’s wristwatch monopoly.
Thanks to Baby Tyler Band for use of our theme song “Needs” off their self-titled album. Thanks to Waylon Thornton for the bumpers. Thanks to Tyler Nickell for the podcast’s artwork.
