If there’s two things that ska can’t seem to shake, it’s the ’90s and cover songs. So in that spirit I decided to just lean into it.

Holy heck, it’s a brand new episode! From a brand new computer! Speaking of brand new, check out these first two tracks! The Indecision delivers a brand new song from their upcoming album in April, followed by a brand new cover from Half Past Two from their upcoming music video this weekend! The newness doesn’t stop there, we also have super fresh tracks from Be Like Max, the Operators and Black Square! All supported by some great songs from 2 1/2 White Guys, Thorpedians and Steady Earnest! Oh man, I’m so glad to be getting an episode together and getting it out to you fine listeners! Thanks for sticking with me and the show.
Get excited for a new episode! Especially this one that is bursting with fresh new tracks from great bands! Maroon Town, Unsteady and OC Ska Kids are all knocking it out of the park with their new sounds, which isn’t to say anything wrong with the rest of the songs here. Be Like Max, Half Past Two, Two Tone Club and Stacked Like Pancakes are all fantastic and it’s the combination of them all that makes this another killer episode!
Never be too afraid to pause your life, for just a bit. Things happen, out of your control, and you need to take a pit-stop. You can’t do this too often, or even make a habit out of it, for if you do, you’ll lose you motivation to press on. We should always be making forward progress, but a short break from it is never a bad thing. Keep dancing, keep exploring and keep being awesome.
Hello ladies and gents, are you ready for the latest episode of 23min of Ska?
Is everyone out there feeling better? I hope so. These last few weeks, they’ve been… trying, to say the least. We just have to get out there, do what we have to do to make things better. We can do this. We’re a great community. Nothing can stop us. Go. Fight. Work. Win! We can succeed! Even in the darkest of times, we can rise.
Yay! Music! Hoorah for ska! Let’s get to it. We all have a ton going on this time of year. Thanks for downloading this silly little podcast and listening to it! I was dead tired while making this episode, so I did tend towards fast paced songs on this one to keep me awake while putting it together. Oh, and songs that just make me smile, like the opener.
Let’s hear it for living life the way you want to live it! Yeah! Wait… you don’t? You better change that as much as you can, and soon! Ok, yeah, I know, a lot of stuff sucks in life, we gotta get around it any way we can. We can’t let it crush us. We need to fight back or we need to move on and find a better place.
They said it couldn’t be done… wait… maybe they said it shouldn’t be done… that seems more likely… either way, here it is, more songs and bands than have ever been stuffed into a single episode of 23min of Ska. 23min of Ska is always coming at you with a lot of great ska music, we’re just pushing the envelope this time.
