7 DAY TWEET @ TRUMP CHALLENGE...a chronology of futility (now w/ pictures!)


So I decided that I wanted Donny Trump to come on Wednesdays With Andrew for an interview, to discuss the correlations between the anarchy of sound that is punk rock to the unorthodoxy of a celebrity tv 'star' being president of these united states.

I set out on a journey that was destined to change the very fabric of this democracy, and came back..empty-handed. Motherfucker never responded! Ruuuuuuuude.

For those who couldn't/wouldn't/didn't follow along on twitter and facebook, below is the whole campaign in all its futile glory.

Day 1: innocuous request to hear from a real-life Herbert Camacho


Day 2: friendly reminder


Day 3: If anyone was gonna prefer Graves over Danzig, it'd be fucking Trump


Day 4: starting to get worried, why isn't he responding? curious to see which man he would fuck, and which he'd decide to spend the rest of his days with. also, hungry.

Day 5: come on, Rumpelstiltskin, PICK UP THE PHONE


Day 6: trying the 'brawn over brains' approach. based on picture above, unlikely he's very competitive in either regard


Day 7 of 7: this was all a ploy to build up ratings! He's got something special planned to announce his acceptance of the interview, i just know it

7 day challenge

Hey guys - finally succumbing to the 7 Days of black-and-white send-President-Trump-a-tweet-requesting-that-he-join-me-on-WednesdaysWithAndrew-for-an-interview Challenge.

While I recognize that he's super busy governing the free world and waging a war on the LAME STREAM MEDIA, I am sure he can find a couple minutes to discuss if he's #TeamMinorThreat or #TeamBlackFlag.

Down n' Dirty w/ Gasoline Lollipops


Yoooo, happy Wednesday guys! Do you like potato phone quality interviews? Do you like the band Gasoline Lollipops? Well then, today you're in for quite a treat.

I had the opportunity to catch up with Clay Rose, lead man for folk punk/punk folk act Gasoline Lollipops, to talk musical influences, authenticity (or lack thereof) at large, and also to discuss the band's upcoming LP release and European tour.

One of the biggest drivers for me to make this podcast is to show (a very limited audience in) the world that the spirit of punk rock is much more pervasive than people realize. Punk is not just 80s hardcore bands in DC, or 90s west coast skate punk bands. Punk is certainly not just Blink fucking 182. The ideas, the passion, the anti-conformity, the community, the need to speak out against things we view as injust...these are not limited to, or contained within, a small smattering of bands that play at a certain tempo, or wear certain clothes, or cater to certain audiences...this shit is ALL OVER THE PLACE, and it's awesome. That is why I am very excited, and humbled, to have the chance to chat w/ Clay about HIS own brand of punk rock.

Beyond just talk, we're also sprinkling a bunch of Gasoline Lollipops songs, new and old, throughout...listen below!



Liner notes

Here is an 'intro to Gasoline Lollipops' playlist curated by the man, the myth, the legend, Clay Rose himself. I think pretty much all of these songs are included in the podcast above, so just listen to that, mmmmk?

This Bandcamp page is where you can listen to a SHIT TON of Gasoline Lollipops' discography.

Check out their website for more goodies, and to see where they may be playing near you - www.gasolinelollipops.com


I bid you a good day, sirs and ladies.
