Wednesday Feb 28, 2018
On this month's episode we have special guest, California artist/illustrator/popular Instagramer: Sam Karkanen!
She took a moment to audio respond to a few questions I asked her about her artwork and social media presence!
I also asked her to choose the song I covered for this episode and she chose a favorite of mine by one of my idols: Joan Jett.
Which I thought was so cool considering we don't personally know each other and she could read me so well, ha!
I sing: "Bad Reputation" By: Joan Jett
Here's a few of my favorite pieces:
Thank you SO much Sam for taking the time to be on my show and I love your work so keep it up and stay fuckin' awesome!

Episode 14 - Special Guest Sunshine
Wednesday Aug 17, 2016
Wednesday Aug 17, 2016
On this episode we give a nod to my other favorite genre of music, Punk.
Our special guest is my friend Sunshine who loves Joan Jett and Punk just as much as I do. We both cover songs by The Cramps.
Her and her stand in band, Flame Job sing "Garbageman" and I sing "Surfin' Dead."
And I forgot to mention, my song is from the 1980's film, Return of the Living Dead's soundtrack and I wanted to definitely shout out to that movie because it's one of my most favorite ones and I love the soundtrack.
My grandmother covers an old favorite of hers, "Kansas City" made famous by Fats Domino in the 50's. We do a rockin' version though with some extra electric punk guitar added by me.
