Yesterday, Jan 23rd, 2019 was the 9 year anniversary of this show. A little ska mix thingy I started making for… honestly, I don’t even know what I was after. A lot of those early episodes are just me sharing some great overlooked songs and bands along with other late ’90s “classics.” It took a few years to turn into this, what it is now, a weekly modern ska focused podcast. It’s been fun, and well, there’s enough good ska still coming out that there’s at least a few years left in the concept! Also, since the vote last week was so close between and more ska, or a more ska/punk episode, I decided to give all you ska/punk fans what you were after!
The American fascists are most easily recognized by their deliberate perversion of truth and fact. Their newspapers and propaganda carefully cultivate every fissure of disunity, every crack in the common front against fascism.
Ok, sure, a Dark Pretzel ride isn’t technically a roller coaster. It’s something else. It’s in the family for sure. Kinda like this episode. All these songs are for sure in the ska family, but they mess around with the style, push and pull away from the beat, but there’s a touch of ska in each. I hate to brag, but I really like this episode… a whole lot. I hope you do too!
