"We're very obsessed with soup"

Trashboat And The Ambush join Pepe for a fun & lighthearted conversation largely centered around setting up DIY shows. First they start off with stories about punk pits, cats & the internet & then dive into their experiences and advice for organizing shows & the community that gets built around this. Towards the end, some unknown folk punk history is shared, some folk punk lore is discussed & a new track by Trash Boat And The Ambush is played.

HIGHLIGHTS:

• The benefits of starting to set up shows
• What if there's already someone hosting/organizing shows in my town?
