Stop Calling Me Frank, the band with the curious name, started playing out in 1984 and even had a single, but it wasn't until 2019 that they released their first full length album. Since they have become one of Boston's hardest working bands. It's an interesting story about a bunch of guys, none of which are named "Frank". On this episode we are joined by Terry O’Malley, Dan Caspariello, and founding member drummer Eddie Barese to hear their side of the story.

We also talk about the seemingly overnight disbanding of one of America's foremost and longest running political punk bands - Anti-Flag - a breakup that leaves us with a lot of unanswered questions.
