Greg (A Podcast About Propagandhi/Classical Ideas) @gregsoden.bsky.social · 2d

I will be in Winnipeg this weekend for a book release party about the best band in the world, Propagandhi from Winnipeg.

Witchpolice Radio @witchpoliceradio.bsky.social · 3d

Hello human friends! My pal @gregsoden.bsky.social is in town from Buffalo to launch the book version of Unscripted Moments, which documents (in interview form) the last few years of his decades-long obsession with our very own Propagandhi.

Witchpolice Radio @witchpoliceradio.bsky.social · 3d

Swing by. Come hang. Buy a book. Talk Greg’s ear off about how you would personally rank the Propagandhi discography. It’s gonna be a time. Come have a time with us.

Witchpolice Radio @witchpoliceradio.bsky.social · 3d

Really hoping to see some of you out at Public Domain on Saturday evening to nerd out with us. I will be interviewing Greg about the book as part of the show, and there will be live performances by the homies Mike Koop and Paul Hodgert as well.
