This Week Matt and Gary are joined by King Django and Matt Wixson. They discuss how they both got into ska, how Stubborn Records got it’s start and how the Still Stubborn compilation came to be. Django and Wixson also tell us how the songs were chosen for Vol.1 of Still Stubborn and their thoughts on the current state of the ska scene. We also talk pizza, Italian Restaurants and Blues Traveler. Last, we give you ska news and our ska picks of the week.
