  • Episode 4 REBROADCAST John W. Kiss III (Endangered Youth, The Where, and many more)

    Originally released January 25th 2016



    John W. is one of my closest friends. We have spent a stupid amount of time together. Today we explore his music history and tell a bunch of stories. If you have ever wanted to peak into the mind of an enigma, today is your lucky day.

    A crazy amount of bands were mentioned in this episode. Here is a link to a bunch of them. Also, just a sidenote... If you watch The Where documentary, listen to their music, or listen to The Dignitaries, know that the members no longer share some of the views expressed in that content. I know that they want to make that clear so I'm just passing the word along.
