Our LUCKY seventh guest is Miami native and music scene super-boss, Lolo Reskin. Lolo began her music career in high school, starting as a street team rep for mega-cool record labels like Matador and Astralwerks and DJing indie nights at clubs she was far too young to be in.

At age 16, she started working at Virgin Megastore, and after six years of learning the ins and outs of all things record store, she took a huge leap and opened her own shop—Sweat Records—which we can objectively say is one of the greatest record stores in South Florida since Blue Note. AND, to top off this wild resume, her great-uncle coined the term "Rock N’ Roll." WTF. Lolo graduated from Miami Killian Senior High in Kendall in 2000. LET’S GET INTO IT.

Strap on your ear goggles because it's time for Staten Island's wildest and craziest guy... You know him, you love him, it's Dan Ozzi! Dan graduated from St. Joseph by-the-Sea High School in 2001, and since then, he's spent his time, oh, you know, just banging out a couple of best-selling books, no big deal! 

He co-wrote Fahrenheit-182 with Mark Hoppus (a #1 New York Times best-seller), and before that, his book SELLOUT: The Major Label Feeding Frenzy That Swept Punk, Emo, and Hardcore (1994-2007) was a National best-seller as well as NPR's book of the year. 

Dan chats with us about attending high school with folks you would see on an episode of The Jersey Shore, finding community in the punk, hardcore, and skateboarding scenes, and doing ridiculous things with his friends before Jackass ruined it for all of us. Let's get into it.
