And introducing, WE POD ECONO: an Our Band Could Be Your Life miniseries! We are taking a journey through Michael Azerrad’s chronicle of the 1980’s American underground rock scene, continuing today with Chapter Eight: Butthole Surfers! We’re joined by NPR World Cafe’s Raina Douris to take a look at the Texas-tinged acid-fried world of these genuine rock n roll maniacs, smash the fire cymbal, and commit a little Culturcide along the way.
