We’re back, baby! At least, for one episode to hold you over until the world gets back to normal. In our first episode of a very loosely structured Season 2, we discuss SUNDAY MORNING with poet Neil Hilborn. From lyrical brotherly love to different takes on hypothetical depressive episodes, Neil and Cheska dig into each and every lyric of this earlier Menzos track and the mental health/companionship journey it takes us through. Come for the wild conjecture about electric skies, and stay for Neil’s list of the 3 worst areas to drive through in the US.
Find Neil's amazing work, his books, and information on his writing workshop at neilhilborn.com, and follow him @neilicorn on Twitter/Instagram. Additionally, here's my favorite of his poems.

ON THE IMPOSSIBLE POD is a song-by-song breakdown of the many bangers from Scranton, PA punk band, The Menzingers. We're digging into the recurring themes, the unsung melodies and the visceral emotional responses that only a Menzingers song can evoke.
