This week I have long time friend Josh Katz- frontman of Badflower. So far he is my only repeating guest on this show, I caught him when he was in LA and we share some stories and catch up, we already learned about Josh’s life before on previous episodes, but anytime we get together, we always have a blast, here’s the conversation.
This week we continue the last episode, talking about all sorts of things. Josh is one of my favorite people ever and that’s why this is a two parter episode!!
This week I have Josh Katz from the amazing band Badflower! We’ve become really close friends over the years.

The song is preceded by their 2024 offerings “Detroit” and “Teacher Has A Gun.” Lead vocalist Josh Katz says of the track, “’Haunting You’ is really about being pushed out of someone’s life abruptly and completely.

Ahead of their upcoming massive No Place Like Home fall tour, Badflower launched a scathing new track, “Teacher Has A Gun.” Touching on a uniquely American fear and intertwining the notion with technology, the band highlights paranoia in this energetic modern rock bop and accompanying music video.
