RSR PC 061 The Problem With Kids Today

Silas, Tate and Reena are The Problem With Kids Today. They’re also a band of the same name (wocka wocka).  We talk to them about all the usual musical topics specific to them and their band. We talk about Sesame Street, Dora and various early musical memories as well as Reena’s vlogging dad and Tate’s Miracle Legion connection and building a shed instead of getting a job with Silas and various other divergent topics as it goes. And we start with the music we’re listening to of course.

RSR PC 060 CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP

CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP CHOP (or Chopx7 for short or maybe even just Chop) joined us on the podcast this month. We talk about cybergrind, noise, where those meet and overlap for him. We talk about working with other folks on various projects. We talk about how the Chopx7 Tik Tok became as big as it is! College. Shows. Music. Conversation, as usual, stretches out from all that.

RSR PC 059 Hardcore Sweet Bakery (Nicole & Jeremy Braddock)

Nicole and Jeremy Braddock own and run Hardcore Sweet Bakery out of Watertown and their satellite location in Southington. Beyond the bakery, which grew out of a cupcake food truck, they also do community outreach programs like a book club, baking classes and a variety of events including the upcoming Punk Rock Flea Market on October 23rd at the Southington Drive-In.

We talk about how they’ve grown their business. We talk about their various TV appearances on cooking competition shows. Lots of fun talk about best selling cupcakes based on different band names and songs and custom cakes based on some outlandish customer requests. Lots of fun was had and topics branch out from there.

RSR PC 058 Austin Larkin & Zach Rowden

This month brings a return guest in Zach Rowden and a new guest in Austin Larkin. Together they perform as Red Yellow Blue Green Black. Definitely go back and listen to the Zach and Henry (Tongue Depressor) podcast if you haven’t yet! For this episode we focused more on Austin as we had yet to dive into his musical background.  We of course also talk about lots of things we’re listening too.

Austin created sirens for the recent tour with Tongue Depressor – some deep insight on those. General talk of musical education background and Austin’s brief stint in a band signed to Sub Pop and how that led to a few years at school for music and then on to Jakarta to further study gamelan.  Lots of insight and interesting musical and other art related divergences follow. Give a listen!
