My guest for this episode is Dan Schafer, aka Dan Vapid of Screeching Weasel, the Queers, the Riverdales, the Methadones, Noise On Numbers, and most recently, Dan Vapid & The Cheats.  Their 2021 album "Escape Velocity" was one of my favorite punk albums of the year, so in this interview we talk about how and when it was recorded, Dan's approach to songwriting, and we chat about listening to music and life during the pandemic.

This episode of the podcast features four songs from Escape Velocity:
Middle America
The Talk
Runaway Jane
Midnight Blue

You can find Dan Vapid & The Cheats on Facebook, Instagram, and all major streaming platforms.
