This week we are joined by Chris and Josh from Coolidge. First, Matt breaks down some ska news. Next, Chris and Josh tell us how they each got into ska music and how Coolidge got it’s start. Next, we learn about the writing and producing of Coolidge’s latest record, Condition Transmission. Chris and Josh also talk about balancing music and adult responsibilities. We ask the question, How many members change in a band before it’s just a new band? Lastly, we give you our Ska Picks of the Week.
