Steve "Stevo32" Jocz (Sum 41): From Pop-Punk Fame to Finding Himself Again
“When you’re lost, look for universal truths. Raising your kid is a no‑brainer.”
Former Sum 41 drummer Steve Jocz—better known as Stevo32—joins The Aftershow to talk about the meteoric rise of Sum 41, the label battles and shifting dynamics behind the scenes, why he ultimately walked away at the height of it all, and how fatherhood and a move to Australia brought him back to the drums on his own terms. Steve opens up about early bidding wars and MTV-era videos, the “Underclass Hero” pivot, the rough years around Scream Bloody Murder, leaving to be present for his newborn, rediscovering music through jazz study, and the unexpected joy (and occasional chaos) of building a YouTube channel from scratch. It’s a candid, funny, and human conversation about identity, maturity, money myths, and making peace with the past—without losing your sense of humor.
