Taylor, Elliott and Bill reconvene to talk music and politics and so much more. We discuss new tunes, seeing Superchunk in Baltimore, the history of R.E.M, if artists are legitimate political voices, and James van der Beek as Diplo.

For episode 30 of KDF, Bill shuts off his DAP for a bit and starts spinning vinyl on his new turntable.

Playlist: Exhumed~Chromatics Teenage Witch~Suzi Wu Toehead~Fishdoll Raingurl~Yaeji All About Me~Syd Baby's Got The Blues~H.C.

With Elliott back in town for the National Bike Summit, we couldn't pass up an opportunity to get together and record in the basement, just like old times. With no plan and Taylor losing his voice, we may have recorded our best episode, yet. Bill catalogs every rock biography he's listened to on audible, we debate Japandroids second album and then go completely off the rails by reading the lineups for every HFStival between 1999 and 2004.

Todd McDonald (Routineers, Jury Rig, unnamed new band) returns to the show to join Taylor, Elliott and Bill for a wide ranging conversation on what protest music will look like in the coming years ... as if we know.

Taylor, Elliott and Bill reconvene for episode 21 of the Kids Don't Follow Podcast to talk about their favorite albums of the year. Their favorite shows of the year, and their favorite music that may not have been recorded in 2016 but it was new to them this year. We had a whole lot more planned, but with all of the pent up conversation spewing forth, we decided to hold off on other topics for the next episode, which we promise will be coming soon.

On episode 20 we are joined by Spencer Haugh from The Slow Ride Podcast to talk about growing up punk in the Twin Cities. Although Spencer now resides in Boston he was born and bred in the Minnesota crusty punk scene.  Spencer and Elliott give the lowdown on the lost generation of punk in the late nineties with a special emphasis on the Minnesota scene. Taylor joins Bill in the basement too ask questions, derail the conversation, and drink sparkling water. Set List: Monolith/Time Bomb~Amebix Doomed Society~Code 13 Suckers, Intl.

On Episode 17 of Kids Don't Follow Podcast we are joined by Kevin Hays, the one person in our circle of friends brave enough to admit he's a ska fan.
