Josh Thomas has been an active presence in the local ska scene in for nearly two decades. His seven part podcast "The Prizefighters: Old School Edition" features interviews with former and present band members, chronicling both his own musical biography as well as the Prizefighters' journey from early days of basement rehearsals to sharing the stage with nationally touring artists. This isn't just a retrospective though. It's a look forward at what these old friends are up to now and what they hope to accomplish in the future.
