100 Words Or Less: The Podcast

I appeared on my good buds podcast, Bad Christian, in which I discussed straight edge and how it intersects with religion and a lot of anecdotal thoughts that are related to straight edge as well. It's a real fun discussion that I thought you'd enjoy!

Episode 265 - A true gentleman is on the show this week in the form of an incredible drummer, Dave Lombardo. He plays in Slayer, Suicidal Tendencies, Dead Cross and The Misfits.

Episode 259 - YES! Today is a rad show with my old friend Keith Barney. He plays guitar currently in 18 Visions and was previously a member of Adamantium, Throwdown and Death By Stereo.
