In the most inside baseball episode of anything ever, your host Ryan Sim is joined by film maker, screenwriter, and musician, Darcy O'Connor (Manhunt, The Uglies) to discuss the emo-darlings Brand New and their first album in eight years. In Darcy's own words, it's fine. Front man Jessie Lacy gets a real lampooning in this episode. We lampoon him hard. We talk about our respective introductions to the band who seemed to justify so many young white boys' animosity towards girls who wouldn't fuck them. Ah, nostalgia. We discuss the punk rock scene and name drop a lot of bands that most people probably won't recognise. Still, this episode is probably less alienating than the self-suck fest that is "Science Fiction." Thanks to Darcy for coming on such short notice. Enjoy the episode.
