This week, Evan and Nina welcome their dear friend, the great punk writer and musician David Anthony!

Following a discussion of savory ice creams (a Super Bowl tradition) and the 2026 Muppet Show, we make David talk about the new one by his band Ritual Cross. He can’t believe we’ve done this. We also get into new records by Zero Sum, Perro Mundo, the Nervous, BRICKIE, and Chemical Threat.

Go subscribe to David’s excellent newsletter Former Clarity and check out his podcast with Dan Ozzi, No Disrespect.
