ITN 57 | Arcadia Grey (Indianapolis, IN)

Indiana, United States

Support the podcast and help keep it online by becoming a member of our Patreon! Every little donation helps and I really appreciate anything you can pledge! This episode is like Arcadia Grey’s live show: short, energetic, all over the place, and noisy (in the best way possible). We recorded this in Pat Ray’s basement before both of our bands played there that night, and we talked about as much as we could fit into the half hour we had before we had to set up for the show. Check out their music if you’re into loud, cathartic emo punk and definitely look for them to play live in your area because they tour a lot. Thanks for listening! Air date: 3/9/2020.

ITN 54 | Boyfrienders (Lincoln Park, MI)

Michigan, United States

Hung out with Benny from metro Detroit’s Boyfrienders! Their style is a cool singer-songwriter (but add synths) sorta thing with some catchy vocal hooks and straight-to-the-point lyrics. Benny and I had a lot in common from a standpoint of having a case of lead singer syndrome, and we also talk about how some people actually ENJOY the administrative side of being in a band. Hopefully you guys enjoy the episode and please share it! Air date: 2/20/2020.

D.C., Michigan, Ohio, United States

Holy cow! 50 episodes! Thank you all SO MUCH for making this little passion project of mine relevant. I recorded this episode on-site at the Summit Shack during Equipment’s EP release show, which also featured Origami Angel, Cheem, Parkway & Columbia, and my band In A Daydream. I played the first set with my band and then set up a podcast corner in the Shack’s living room, where I got a chance to chat with members of all the bands listed above and more. I could not be more grateful to the Summit Shack crew for letting me both play the show and record this special episode of the podcast. I hope you all enjoy it as much as I enjoyed making it! Air date: 1/31/2020.

ITN 49 | Jake Rees from No Fun Club/Good Luck Charm Records (Royal Oak, MI)

Michigan, United States

Had a really awesome 1 on 1 conversation with Jake Rees about so many things that it feels inappropriately reductionist to try and sum it up in a couple sentences. Just listen and trust me that this is one of the best episodes yet. At least I think so anyway. I just feel like this was the type of conversation that represents what I want this podcast to be about as I move forward. Jake killed a performance of a new No Fun Club song in the beginning as well. Enjoy y’alls! Air date: 1/29/2020.

ITN 48 | Nick Brink from Sadgasm/DIY Merch-Making Extraordinaire (Salem, OR)

Oregon, United States

I recorded a podcast with someone over Discord for the first time! And that person was Nick Brink from Salem, Oregon, who is in the band Sadgasm and also makes DIY band merch to-order. Nick first heard about the podcast from when I co-released an episode with r/Emo’s “The ‘E’ Word” Podcast, and has listened to EVERY EPISODE WHAT!?!?! That is so cool to me, and I am so appreciative. And I’m excited because I figured out how to record remote episodes so this opens up the door to other guests who may not be able to be here in person. Hope you enjoy! Air date: 1/23/2020.
