Live from The Salty Dog in Northwich, UK, Liam sits down with Chris Mundy—drummer, venue owner, and all-round punk stalwart.

In this episode, we dive into Chris’s journey from being a teenage Green Day fan to touring the world with Oi legends The Business, and eventually founding one of the UK’s most respected grassroots venues.

We talk about his new band Kicked In The Teeth and their new album Watling Street Chambers (out now on Rare Vitamin Records), the power and politics of punk, scene beefs, Rebellion Festival, and why grassroots venues matter more than ever.

Also: what happens when you take a piss in the wrong alley in Missouri? Chris knows.

We are live at the Manchester Punk Festival!

Liam sits down with John Porter, the first-ever Accessibility Coordinator for Manchester Punk Festival, for a live conversation recorded above a pub during the festival.

They dive into what accessibility in the punk scene looks like, how punk venues and festivals can do better, and why John—an ex-standup comic and lifelong punk fan—is the right person to shake things up.

They also explore the real-life barriers disabled fans face at gigs, the importance of representation on stage, and the power of community-led change.

In this episode of Punks in Pubs, Liam sits down with Monique Powell, the legendary frontwoman of Save Ferris.

From growing up in Orange County’s iconic punk scene to navigating the chaos of the music industry, Monique shares her incredible journey—one filled with triumphs, setbacks, and a never-ending love for music.

She talks about:

• Her time living in the UK, falling in love with Birmingham, and nearly freezing at a Crystal Palace match.
• The insane drinking culture of British football fans.
• What it was like being a woman in punk in the ’90s and how things have (or haven’t) changed.
• The DIY grind of selling 20,000 self-released records before the major labels came knocking.
• Covering Come On Eileen and whether she ever got sick of it.
• Her thoughts on punk, privilege, and why you don’t mess with her when it comes to racism or sexism.

It’s a deep, hilarious, and brutally honest conversation with one of ska-punk’s most iconic voices.

Give it a listen, and if you enjoy it, share it with a mate!
