Back On The Grind
Pepe Bandit
66 episodes
2 weeks ago

A podcast exploring life, music, people & the stories that bring us closer.


Episodes are published on the 1st & 15th every month.

 

With intimate interviews, folk punk & my own personal experiences, I explore how we can show up for the story of life. There's no reason to do this alone, we can learn from each other, even if we make some mistakes along the way. Join me as I embark on a journey to figure out how to find meaning & balance, navigate relationships & culture, all while growing with you. We can survive our failures, learn from them & celebrate the victories we also achieve when we put in the work.

I have a strong connection to the folk punk & DIY, underground music community in general, so expect to hear about that too. Some other common themes on the show are, creativity, prison, addiction/recovery, spirituality, personal authority & relationships. I hope to become a valuable part of your life through my efforts here at Back On The Grind as I bring you closer to myself & the guests I converse with.

HIGHLIGHTS:

  • Brook's first show with Johnny Hobo/Pat The Bunny
  • What was the average Johnny hobo show like at the time? Was it a solid consistent line up or mostly pat showing up with a guitar?
  • What was the farthest pat toured during that period? 
  • Some differences between the Pan-It-X crew & the DIY Bandits crew
  • The role of "place" & how it influences music & scenes
  • How much did the Johnny Hobo songs actually reflect Pat's real life at the time & how much was just him singing in character?
  • Were things like hitchhiking & riding freight trains stuff Pat actually did? 
  • Thoughts on the tinder Box in Brattleboro VT.
  • Brook taking people to Harmony Parking Lot
  • How do you all feel about being so popular with train hoppers & homeless kids, particularly those who take inspiration from Pat's early nihilistic, self-destructive lyrics to be nihilistic and self-destructive themselves?
  • Does an artist have a responsibility to their listeners. Eg glorifying drugs, suicide, violence, crime etc or is the first responsibility to the art itself?
  • How do you feel about fans putting people like Pat & Benjamin Tod on pedestals? Seemingly holding them solely responsible for their recoveries?
  • "These days folk-punk is suffering because the artists aren't". It seems like the music was better when the people involved were "worse". Can you speak to that idea?
  • Can I become rich & pay off my student loans with my old CDs. Asking for a friend :) + What’s that most yall have seen these albums go for?
  • Did he ever give a reason for the disbanding of Johnny Hobo? If so what was it?
