On this, the inaugural episode of Last Believer: A Podcast About Good Riddance, Dan and Josh talk about the songs Boise (from My Republic), Flies First Class (from For God And Country) and Precariat (from Thoughts and Prayers). Also, Dan brings a quiz to find out which classic punk band your hosts are and it's a lot heavier than you would assume.
Dan is a Fest-going, chicken wing loving punk from Ottawa, Canada that moved to Toronto more than a decade ago. He runs Last Wishes Supply Co with Chris Cresswell of The Flatliners and can grow a beard.
Josh got a job as a bartender 15 years ago so hasn't been going to too many shows since then. Before that though he worked with the label Underground Operations and hosted a weekly punk rock show on Toronto's 102.1 The Edge. He runs bartenderatlas.com with his wife Jess. His ankle clicks from skateboarding. He cannot grow a beard.
