Episode 120: “No Poisons, No Prisons” ft. George Schimitz

This week, my friend George stopped by to talk about the intersections of straight-edge and radical politics. We talked about being sober, punk and hardcore, and the how revolutionaries might benefit from the clarity and focus of being drug-free. But, fear not–neither of us are here trying to provide some prescriptive dogma. Honestly, it was just fun to catch up and shoot the shit. George also talks a bit about the new Stick to Your Guns EP, The Meaning Remains, which comes out this week so stick around ‘til the very end of the episode to hear a bit more about the record.  Pick up a copy of The Meaning Remains EP.  Follow George on Twitter and follow Stick to Your Guns while you’re at it!  Pick up a copy of Sober Living for the Revolution.
