Today we talk about how punk rock allowed two slightly oddball dudes to carved out their own little niche in this crazy world. Settle in for the ride. Be easy.

QCH is back with Season 3. Well, it's been about a year since we started this thing, and here we jump back in with musings on the changes brought on by the disruption of the past year. What an odd, and often tragic, gift...to be given a pause on the blurred, racing, sameness of our day-to-day year-to-year. To be forced to face aspects of our world that had previously been washed together and obscured within the monotony of just living. Oh, and a bunch of rad, good times tunes to get your weekend off right. We try to strike a balance. Be easy.
