punk this week podcast: brainwash victims + pretty baby
Yambag, Robber Robber, Dr. Pepper-flavored Peeps, and some long-belated research into the city of Charlotte.
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. Ad-free and bonus episodes are available only to paid see/saw subscribers with the link at the bottom of this page!
We celebrate Easter with a visit from the Dr. Pepper-flavored Peep we’ve named Dr. Peeper. Nina meets Rocco for a summit about the state of the Reese’s Easter egg (and a Mclusky/Pile show). Evan browses a reasonably priced vintage Charlotte Hornets jacket on eBay. We discuss new records from Brainwash Victims, Pretty Baby, Yambag, Robber Robber (read Nina’s review in Pitchfork), Triple Ente, and the split from Mail. & Sects.
