For those who aren't on ska twitter, or really in the ska scene, Freelance Music Journalist, Aaron Carnes hosts a podcast based on topics from his ska punk / skacore history book. His mission was as the name of the book says to give readers (mostly readers w/ negative or less positive opinions on ska and the ska punk / skacore genres a different perspective. Aaron now finished with that book has now converted those ideas into a podcast

This podcast has interview anyone generally whos been connected to the ska scene in one way or another. Episodes including, Anthony Fantano, Laura Jane Grace of Against Me, Reade Wolcott of We are the Union, Eichlers, Jer Hunter of Skatune Network and We are the Union, Barry Johnson of Joyce Manor, and Now one of my favorite scene bands Ice Nine Kills.
Ice nine kills minus the demos, and a local tv performance and some collabs hasnt made a ska record since the band was in high school.
