Author Colin Atrophy Hagendorf talks to punks, artists, zine makers, tattooers, and other weirdos about what they were like when they were young and what drives them to continue making things today. No cops, no creeps. Peace in the pizzeria.
WHATS GOOD INTERNET this month's guest is the delightful and charming Raquel Namuche who I met because she yelled at me on the street and we've been friends ever since. We talked about her childhood in Lima and Queens, getting into punk at ABC No Rio, finding other immigrant punk kids in the Migra Punk scene, becoming involved with activism as a teen at Charas/El Bohio, and how that ultimately led to her work today with Ridgewood Tenants Union (https://www.ridgewoodtenantsunion.org).
This is the article about nazis in Ridgewood that we talked about (https://brooklynrail.org/2021/04/field-notes/Reading-Ridgewood).
You can listen to the Huasipungo discography that I mentioned in the outro here (https://archive.org/details/jamendo-042705).

Erin Yanke (It Did Happen Here)
Erin Yanke fuckin rules. I asked her on the show to talk about her incredible podcast, It Did Happen Here (http://itdidhappenherepodcast.com), but we also touched on her band Noxeema (https://noxeema.bandcamp.com/releases), the film she worked on, Arresting Power (http://www.arrestingpower.com), growing up in Humbolt and the Bay, interning at NPR, and I somehow forgot to ask about the fucking DEAD MOON BOOK (https://www.deadmoonnight.com/dead-moon-book)!!! This is why you gotta keep your notes in front of you when doing interviews and not wander around your house like a toddler. This is a good one so please listen, and remember to rate review subscribe whatever in all the places you can do that I need affirmation.

Elizabeth Whitney (Enliven Studios)
This month I talked to Elizabeth Whitney, my dear friend in New York who is an empowerment, sex, and wellness coach (https://www.instagram.com) and the only person I've ever seen wear a Supreme fanny pack on her waist. Imagine the freedom! We talked about being born into a Christian cult, the Footloose soundtrack, her seemingly innate interest in fashion, getting into cigarettes and punk in the psyche ward at 14, her struggles with disordered eating, running away to live in the Bay at 16, finding community while living in a punk house for 20 years, getting over shyness through waitressing, how moving across the country can be alienating but shift your outlook, training to be a sex coach. There's too much to mention it all but it's an incredible conversation. There was another issue with the audio syncing incorrectly, so about halfway through it starts to sound like Elizabeth is interrupting me all the time, but she isn't! She's very considerate. It's just the internet fucking up.
