My guest on this episode is Pedro "Poney" Aranjo

from the legendary Brazilian thrash metal band Violator. Violator was created in 2002 and has produced five full-length albums. Their music is aggressive, fun, and has always provided very interesting commentary on the political and economic situation in Brazil and around the world. This conversation with Pedro was so much fun and even if you're not a metalhead, I think you'll find some of the things we discussed about music, it's intersection with politics, and the struggle for justice in Latin America very interesting.
