Episode 95: FREAKSCENE.us creators Nico Daunt and Corbin Corbin
<p>Calling All Freaks! </p><p>My guests this episode are <strong>Nico Daunt </strong>and <strong>Corbin Corbin</strong>, the guys behind the new and very cool <strong>FREAKSCENE.us </strong>Indie/D.I.Y. social media network now taking the underground by storm.</p><p>What is Freakscene? How is it different from Instagram or the other oligarch-owned, algorithmically driven, surveillance and advertising platforms masquerading as ‘social media’ in 2025?</p><p>As Corbin and Nico explain in our conversation, FS is not intended to be just another 'virtual community'. Instead it is an online space where already existing real-life D.I.Y. communities, organized by regions and cities, can network, strengthen and grow, free from corporate overlords. Its design harkens back to an era of the internet before it sucked, with lively forums and up to the minute flyer walls, all 100% free from algo-bots deciding what you will and won’t see. </p><p>The mission and vibe of Freakscene.us will likely sound familiar to TMpod listeners who came of age in the <strong>punk/HC/indie scenes of the 80’s and 90’s</strong>. Freakscene is bringing that same resourceful, handmade energy to your devices right when it’s most sorely needed. </p><p>I salute the work Nico, Corbin and all the volunteers have put in making FS a reality and I encourage everyone interested to get involved, after all, just like every cool underground scene, it is what we make it.</p><p><br /></p><p>LINKS: </p><p><a href="https://freakscene.us/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">FREAKSCENE.US</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/freakscene.us/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Freakscene Insta</a></p><p><a href="https://corb.in/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Corbin’s photo archive</a></p><p><a href="https://www.nicodaunt.com/about" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Nico’s website</a></p><p><a href="https://freakscene.us/members/traegermethod.9015/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">TRAEGERMETHOD on FREAKSCENE</a></p><p><a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFsSRu1Krys" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Jaron Lanier 'Ten Arguments for Deleting Your Social Media Account Right Now' talk</a></p><p><br /></p><p>Music in order of appearance:</p><p><a href="https://www.porridgeradio.com/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">Porridge Radio</a> ‘Born Confused’</p><p><a href="https://westamerica.bandcamp.com/music" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">West America</a> ‘The World Destroys Itself’</p><p>Porridge Radio ‘7 Seconds’</p><p><br /></p>

Episode 94: Aaron Hartman of La Jolla Babylon Podcast, Old Time Relijun)
<p><strong>Aaron Hartman </strong>is a bassist best known for his 30 year collaboration with visionary artist /vocalist / multi-instrumentalist/ Arrington de Dionyso in trance punk world travellers <strong>Old Time Relijun</strong>. His propulsive upright bass playing works as the blood pumping heart of that very heartful combo. </p><p>On Halloween of last year Aaron and I sat down in his living room in Portland, OR. to talk about his new foray into the realm of podcasting with <strong>LaJolla Babylon: Making of a Suburban Punk</strong> on the <strong>Ruinous Media</strong> network. The pod consists of Aaron reading from his lightly fictionalized memoir of his ‘feral’ Gen X youth in San Diego, as told through his avatar character Adam Waxman. Each episode, before and after his readings, he checks in and processes what was covered with his New York based comedian / actor half sister <strong>Katie Hartman</strong>. </p><p>The warm and funny intergenerational rapport between ‘coddled millennial’ Katie, 12 years his junior, and Aaron makes for delightful listening. It’s a compelling snapshot of time and place, a coming of age story and portrait of a family that gets a little harrowing, alot humorous and is always intimate.</p><p>Our conversation goes beyond pod talk as well, we cover the gifts and hazards of touring, the pain and redemption of life in bands, as well as our common experiences in the indie/punk/post-hardcore scenes of San Diego and Olympia, WA. in the 80’s, 90’s and oughts.</p><p>It was great to talk with Aaron and I hope TMpod listeners will check out La Jolla Babylon. Thank you for listening!</p><p>Links:</p><p><a href="https://www.ruinousmedia.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">La Jolla Babylon: Making of a Suburban Punk</a></p><p><a href="https://www.instagram.com/lajollababylonpodcast/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Instagram</a></p><p><a href="TraegerMethod Poadcast Instagram" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">TraegerMethod Poadcast Instagram</a></p><p>Music: </p><p>Old Time Relijun</p><p>‘In This World’</p><p>‘Mystery Language’</p><p>‘Baby Dragon’</p><p>IQU ‘Flower and Moon’</p><p><br></p>
