In today’s episode of The Friday Podcast, Dochi Sadega talks about a burnt flag, time away from PWG, and Libra.

Widely regarded as one of the few individuals who genuinely shaped his generation's cultural landscape. As the co-founder of Pee Wee Gaskins (PWG), he didn’t just build a band—he helped create a movement that defied mainstream expectations. PWG became an emblem in mainstream music, rejecting the sanitized norms of the music industry. His words resonate because of their raw and unadulterated honesty. Whether it’s through his blunt, often irreverent interviews or his willingness to tackle issues like mental health in PWG's lyrics, Dochi has earned his status as a cult hero of a generation.
