Episode 215

On this, the 215th episode of the Punknews Podcast, Adam White and John Gentile are missing a third co-host and the lack of structure results in one of the most random, tangent-chasing conversations in the show's history. We talk punk doctors, expose our complete lack of understanding of microbiology, chat about the Descendents documentary, D.O.A.'s failure at breaking up, the new GWAR vocalist, the new Sonic Avenues video and much more.

We play music this episode by Solids, Huevos Rancheros and Eddie and the Hot Rods.

Then on Episode 214, John, Adam and Mark Little chat about upcoming music from the Buzzcocks and Mariachi El Bronx, we ask why Sick Of It All needs a lyric video, and we fawn over the new Dead Milkmen track and Jello Biafra's record collection.
