This episode is full of true blue friends, fantastic acquaintances, a few online pals, and total strangers who’ve always done right by me & the show. One song I think is absolutely beautiful, and another one reduced me to tears the first time I heard it. Honestly, a lot of the tracks on this episode are contenders for former, but the latter is a rare song indeed.

cist is one whose lust for money or power is combined with such an intensity of intolerance toward those of other races, parties, classes, religions, cultures, regions or nations as to make him ruthless in his use of deceit or violence to attain his ends.”
Today is going to be a long day.
Welcome back to your favorite ska podcast! Wait, this is your favorite ska podcast right? If it is, welcome back! If it isn’t… well, is this your favorite ska podcast that updates every Thursday? It sure is, isn’t it! Well, heck, that’s for listening! Oh, wait, this is the first episode you’ve ever heard? Well, awesome, welcome to the show in general.

Life is short. Don’t spend it making yourself miserable. Or by making other miserable. Do what you want, but harm none. You know. We only get one shot, are you going to give yours away? Or impede on others? What’s the point? Fulfilling your own greed only makes you think your happy for so long. Try kindness. Try making things for the world. When your time is up in this life, it will be remembered, and you will essentially live beyond your short time alive.
Day late and a dollar short. Isn’t that always how it goes. Well, you shouldn’t let that thought hold you back! Keep pressing! Don’t let all your hard work build to nothing. Fix what is restraining you and complete your mission. If not for anyone else but for yourself.
Can’t stop, won’t stop in trying to bring anyone who cares to listen, a batch of ska excitement. This episode kicks off the 13th set of 23 episodes, as well as our new ridiculous theme. By the way, thanks to Jim Cascino for the suggestion of ice cream. That guy knows right where my heart is.
Ok, well, this week’s episode wasn’t supposed to be this week’s episode. I don’t know when I was going to make an episode like this next, but it wasn’t in my plans. Then the Pomps had to go and release a new and fantastic EP last week and inspire this! Next week I’ll get back with the plan, but this week… this week had to come NOW!
