Well, there’s a big announcement in this episode, one that will likely lead to a good bit of poutine and some reunions with friends. But, on top of that one, here are some other upcoming Black Guy Fawkes events you can still get in on:

• Saturday, 9/14/24: Dangerously Delicious (Baltimore, MD) with The Great Dying (free show!)
• Friday, 9/27/24: Bright Box Theater (Winchester, VA) with Meager Kings and Joey Harkum (⁠tickets available here⁠)
• October 2 - 12th: a house show tour with the P-Nots (Colchester CT punk) hitting Oregon WI, Ringwood IL, Chicago IL, North Canton OH, Charles Town WV, Washington DC, Fallston MD, Poughkeepsie NY, and Orlando FL (email, DM, or ask a punk for more info)

After the announcements and intros, Ian and Ed sit down with Fat Heaven–the entire band (Jack Counce, Travis Yablon, Gayla Brooks)--whom he met at Punk Rock Saves Lives Punk Rock Hoedown in Las Vegas this spring. This episode is chaos. Everyone hates tomatoes, apparently, but loves Pizza Hut. Altoona, PA comes up a lot–the pizza, the punk scene at McGarvey’s, and fresh pasta. Jack says some things that may or may not be words.

Fat Heaven from Brooklyn, NY consists of the three members Jack Counce, Travis Yablon, Gayla Brooks. The three play pop-punk with rock’n roll as it should be fast and full of melodies. With their aggressive and punchy power trio sound, they clearly fall into this genre, although the band’s penchant for catchy vocal melodies puts them closer to poppier acts like Jimmy Eat World and Green Day.

He’s also on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, Bluesky, etc as Black Guy Fawkes–spelling is extremely important here and, not surprisingly, he’s on music streaming services as well: Spotify, Apple Music, and Amazon. You can probably find Ed drinking in a karaoke bar or in the crowd at a punk show. The show also now has a playlist of music from guests that have appeared, and guests who will be appearing, and you can check that out on Spotify as well: Fawkes & Friends: The Playlist - playlist by Ian Robinson | Spotify
