Gunz is super stoked to welcome back to the show the legend himself – Mike Herrera. Having grown up and taking part in a scene full of punk rock and going from basement shows to festivals, Herrera has been able to still stay relevant – continuing to put out new music and be a voice for a community. Mike also talks about the upcoming MxPx livestream show which will be available for free, as well as plays an exclusive acoustic song for all The Gunz Show listeners!

This week we chinwag about as Jess and Bowie’s experience using Masterclass. Afterward, we chat with Australian singer/songwriter Zoe Badwi.
Zoë Badwi began her music career as one third of girl band Sirens before embarking on a solo career that has so far spawned several club chart-topping anthems. She joined girl group trio Sirens, who scored two hits, “Like Fire, Like Rain” and a cover version of the Pointer Sisters’ “I’m So Excited” before disbanding in 2001. Badwi continued to write and perform, and was later spotted fronting band, Black Dogs. Performing at a Melbourne club, electronic duo TV Rock’s Grant Smillie, was so impressed by her vocals that he invited her to work with him. After signing to Neon Records, her debut solo single, “Release Me,” was nominated for Best Dance Release at the 2009 ARIA Award and APRA awards. It was followed by Top Ten single “Freefallin’.” She secured a U.S. deal with Atlantic Records and began work on her debut album and tours the world performing, including touring with Little Mix.
On this episode of The Gunz Show – Gunz catches up with his long time friend Mike Naran – who anybody who was part of the scene knows him from Sparks the Rescue, Breathe Carolina, The Ready Set, as well as playing guitar in Panic at the Disco. Naran drops a brand new vibey – unplugged version of his hit song “Pity Party,” which Gunz debuts as well! Tune in for all the memories and craziness!
This week, the dudes talk to Chris Swinney from That One Time On Tour Podcast…Chris was formerly in The Ataris and is currently in a new band called Fire Sale (New Single OUT NOW!). “Chris and I reconnected doing a song for the project Just Like Them, who get various peeps to cover Descendants and ALL covers. I saw his name come up as the guitarist, and I was like, ‘HEY, I was supposed to be on his podcast before COVID hit,” Jaret Recalls. “So I hit him up and did an episode and this dude rules! Glad to have him talking about his family and career here!” This episode goes all different directions, but just wait until you hear his experiences, moving his wife and new born to Jamaica! This is nutty!!!
We say goodbye to Sean as he exits The Way Highway, and what better way to send him off than to talk about Jack Bauer, Lil Nas X, tolerance and take a deep dive at some unfortunate ads in this week’s Things I Learned While High. …Just kidding, stoners! April Fool’s! Sean’s not going anywhere 😉
