Everyone has that one song they hope to hear from their favorite band at a live show. Sometimes we get lucky and our favorite track is one of their hits, other times our favorite track isn’t as popular.

This week I have singer/songwriter David McWane from Ska band “Big D & The Kids Table.” We’ve met briefly on the Warped Tour, and I wanted to have him on my show because I started out as an early teenager in a Ska band, and I wanted to figure out how he was able to do it professionally all these years. We talk about how David got his start with music, all the way until today. We talk about all the tours and shows he has coming up and how much he enjoys being the opener.

A Federal Judge drops the mic with a sassy gag order on a certain politician. Rep. Jim Jordan is trying to round up his Republican pals for support, but with Rep. Steve Scalise’s unexpected exit stage left, will he hit the right note or fall flat? George Santos is facing the music. With a whopping 23 charges against him, including the classic hits “Wire Fraud” and “Identity Theft,” it seems he’s charting on the “Top Legal Troubles” list.

Sweden’s premier emo band, Tribe Friday, is bringing their sophomore album, Hemma, to every alternative fan who needs to feel a little closer to places that shaped them. In fact, “hemma” in Swedish translates directly to “home.” Noah Deutschmann (vocals/guitar), Zack Liljeberg (drums), Isak Gunnarsson (guitar), and Robin Hanberger Pérez (bass) all confronted how this word has morphed with maturity.
