Episode 18: Shawn Damm
Shawn Damm is a son, a brother, a husband, a proud father of two, and an all-around righteous dude.
He's written more return addresses in the top-left corners of envelopes than he can literally remember, and unless you wanna be told to go fly a kite, don't tell him what to do.
Mr. Damm was kind enough to join me for a fantastic conversation about life and love and children and music. We had a couple cold ones, cracked a lot o' wise, and tried to burn the place to the ground.
Movies came up, and books were discussed. Cars and jobs were touched on. We examined college failures and discovered our love of Too $hort was mutual.
As a matter of fact, I'm not sure what we didn't cover.
Eventually we got around to Shawn's selection for this episode (#18), which was Rage Against the Machine's self-titled debut from 1991, and it was fun to re-discover what a banger that record was.
Please give our chat a listen or a view, and if you're feeling intimidated by the episode length, take comfort in the fact that I cut out the first 50 minutes just for you. 'Cause I'm a thoughtful podcast host like that.
Anyway, please tell your friends about Badass Records, and please send any potential interview candidates that come to mind my way.
Thank you, and have a pleasant tomorrow.
