Description
We kick off the Killed By Desk podcast with one of our favorite examples of a punk going from respect in the scene to a respectable career. Justin Brannan is known by many NYHC fans as the guitarist for Indecision and Most Precious Blood, but his priorities took a left turn when he decided to run for New York City Council. Assuming office in 2018, Justin opens up about what it’s like to be a local politician, from keeping your constituents happy while staying true to your ideals to the best pizza in Bay Ridge, and why no one wants to play South Dakota on a Tuesday night.

14 Drew Stone - Film Director ( Antidote / The Mighty C.O.'s ): A New York City kid goes to Boston for school and discovers the burgeoning hardcore scene, before returning to NYC and forming his own production company. The son of a filmmaker himself, Drew Stone discovered his own interest in film, using what he learned in the hardcore scene to produce music videos for various punk, metal and rap groups. Later, he went on to street biker videos to feature-length documentaries, including Who the Fuck Is That Guy? The Fabulous Journey of Michael Alago, as well as films on the Boston and NYC hardcore scenes. Drew’s career is a great example of how one can not only apply the DIY and punk rock work ethic, but also use connections and relationships to tell some incredible stories.
