Indycast is presented by Uprox's Indy Mix tape.

Hello, everyone, and welcome to Indycast.

On this show, we talk about the biggest indie news of the week,

we review albums, and we hash out trends.

In this episode, we answer

emails from you, the Indiecast listener. My name is Stephen Hayden, and I'm joined by my friend

and co-host. He is no longer welcome at Boy Genius Concerts. Ian Cohen, Ian, how are you?

Yeah, what Steve is alluding to is a very online discourse. One of the many that was

happening this week. This one particularly about like, uh, boy genius concerts and who's allowed to

attend or not attend. Um, uh, I'm like very hesitant to even dive into it. But like, I think the one,

if, if, if you've been online you know

this one it's like you know don't don't bring your boyfriend don't bring you and your straight

boyfriend to the boy genius concert and I think what the like based on the boy genius concert

I went to about a month back like I don't where't, where does this leave parents, you know?

Like, like, the parents who are bringing their, like, 15 or teenage, you know,

daughter or son or what have you, like, they were kind of left out of this discussion.

We need, like, a kind of a PTA for how to properly attend Boy Genius shows.

Well, you're presupposing that this discourse is rooted in sanity, which it is not.

And I just kind of say, man, you know, like on this show, I think you and I, we tried to narrow the gap between what we talk about in the DMs and texts

and what we talk about on the show.

Because I think people, they listen because they want to hear us hash out the trends,

like in an honest, forthright way.
