Excited to announce a signature Washed Up Emo guitar called the Copycaster! I speak to Nate Baldwin from Baldwin Guitars on how this partnership came about, the tech behind the guitar, and the emo and non emo inspirations behind it. We also talk about how he grew up in the Goleta scene and his mom getting hit on by Tom Selleck.

Keith Lantinen from Count Your Lucky Stars, Empire! Empire! (I Was a Lonely Estate), Mt. Oriender, and Parting is finally on the show. We had a chance to reconnect at Best Friends Forever 2026 and reconnect again for the pod to talk about his bands, his career, and life up to this point in the world of emo. Keith has never shied away from the word and always was championing bands that slipped through the cracks for many as this genre continues to gain popularity.

Connor Gilroy dressed up as the crow from Death Cab for Cutie's "Transatlanticism" album and posted it on Twitter. Hours later he went viral. I found it the next day thanks to my wife and posted it on Instagram. We connected after someone tagged him on the post and couldn't wait to hear the story behind this amazing costume and his own music.
