It’s our post-Fest poopstravaganza, and we’ve got new tracks from The Lawrence Arms, The Get Up Kids, Hostage Life, and many others.

The Fest 8 starts tomorrow, so we’re celebrating by bringing you a super-sized episode chock full of music from bands appearing in Gainesville this weekend, as well as celebrating the unofficial one year anniversary of the podcast!

If you’re gonna be a Gainesville this weekend, look for an unkempt guy in a wheelchair with a giant brace on his left leg. That’s me. I broke my knee the other day (talk about perfect timing) and thus will be Festing from a wheelchair and/or crutches. I’m bummed, but I’m gonna make the best of it. Buy me a beer.

For those of you not converging onto Gainesville this weekend, be sure to keep an eye on Punknews.org, as we’re going to have plenty of dispatches and other audio and video treats from not only myself, but from several other news editors who will be attending.

This adorable, hopefully convalescing kitten is a symbol of my profound regret for forgoing the podcast this week. But worry not — next week the show will make its triumphant return in the form of a huge episode that will serve a dual purpose: as an unofficial One Year Anniversary (yes, it warrants capitalization) of the podcast itself, as well as a gargantuan FEST preview episode. Which means — lots of music from FEST bands and loads of FEST information on which your ears may feast. With that said, return to this space next Thursday at 8 PM EST for the WWH Podcast to end all WWH Podcasts.

This week on the show, I chat with myself while bringing you new music from Converge, Pelican, fun., Landmines, Orphan Choir, Alex Kerns and many, many others.

Michigan 90s revivalists Cheap Girls have posted the track list, art, and two new songs from their upcoming Paper and Plastick full-length My Roaring Twenties. Fans of Smoking Popes/Lemonheads/alternative rock have reason to be excited, judging by “Hey Hey I’m Worn Out”.

The band is currently on tour in the western US with Grabass Charlestons. They’ll play two release shows in their home state before heading out with labelmates Failure’s Union for four weeks, including the Fest. Check out their first album Find Me A Drink Home to see what all the excitement is about.
