Punk This Week

Punk This Week is see/saw’s free weekly podcast from co-hosts Evan Minsker and Nina Corcoran—a discussion of the latest and greatest in the world of punk rock. We talk about six new punk records we’re loving from the past week.

With a song in our hearts and a plan to meet at the National Mustard Museum, Evan and Nina discuss new records from sprgrs, BUIO OMEGA, Liquid Cross, Kid Congo Powers and Naim Amor, UZU, and No Time. Shout out Greg Wheeler and the Poly Mall Cops, kotskat, the Smarthearts, and Brainbombs’ new records, too.

It’s an episode with a ticking clock: Will Nina make it on time to the Frog gig? Still, we had to discuss the Zippy’s dog, Reksio candies, and Elmo’s bold stance. We brought new records from Citric Dummies, Good Luck, SOGA, Twisted Teens, Baby Tyler, and Destiny Bond.

We welcome spooky season with a live taste of Reggie! Bar’s unexpected 2025 reboot and then play a bunch of hardcore records by Slug, Endless Joy, Dry Socket, and Violencia. After noodling into the stratosphere with Blood Cannery, we discuss Black Eyes’ exceptional return on Dischord and an outstanding self-titled from Shakti on La Vida Es Un Mus.

This week, Evan has a new crisis when he asks how do you carry your stuff around a music festival when you don't want to get your back all sweaty? Evan and Nina reveal their Menards-specific text exchanges, Nina plots an interview with the suburban Menards pianist, and we discover the return of Reggie! Bars. All this plus we discuss new ones from Snooper, BB BOMB, Total Con, G.A.Z.E., NULL, and the Etters.

Evan went to Gonerfest and all he got was a sore throat (and, of course, pretty sick...and a bunch of records). Nina saw that huge Turnstile show. In the midst of exciting weekends at the gigs, they recorded this episode of Punk This Week and found themselves exploring a psychological breakdown of all things Kermit.

This intro is long; we get to the records around 29-minute mark. Discussed this time are new records from Added Dimensions, Silo Kids, Genre, Nosepick, Permanent Opposite, and Property.

Evan gets his ass kicked for his ranking of Kermit the Frog in the greater Muppets universe and then cocoons fully into his stereotype of only talking about Australian punk bands. It’s an episode about new records from Nape Neck, the Prize, Billiam, Deaf Club, GOB, and the Quelques coups d'éclat compilation. Find full show notes on see-saw.fun!

As summer winds down, we’re making apple butter, discovering the actual contents of apple butter, and feeling wistful about the changing of seasons with records by Vaguess, Lathe of Heaven, An Slua, Retirement Party, and Carnivorous Flower. Then we throw away all that sentimentality to blast some gnarly powerviolence from Disciplinary Action!
