Summary

Welcome to THIS FOOL's Chris Estrada's and TURNED OUT A PUNK's Damian Abraham's new podcast: KILLED BY PUNK! Punk is a globally diverse culture, with every participant imbuing the word with their own personal definition of what it is. Each episode, Chris and Damian will discuss the different ways this word has been interpreted and the larger ramification for culture and society.

How better to kick it off than with a trip to The Punk Museum in Las Vegas?!?

First, join Chris and Damian as they sit down with the great Fred Armisen and a very a hungover Fat Mike at The Punk Museum. Kick back and "watch" the fireworks, as poor Fred and Chris are subjected to Mike and Damian's bickering about, what else, punk.

Then, Chris and Damian have a two on one conversation with Fat Mike, and it's a rollercoaster! From the effort required to open a punk museum, to the evolving understanding within punk, to the myth of "taste", to the core of Mike and Damian's tensions, to why Mike looks up to Chris, to the highs and lows the come from being the man who's job was keeping punk rock elite: DON'T MISS THIS ONE!
