Episode 57: Punks Against Sweatshops Q&A with members of Propagandhi, Petrol Girls, Dream Nails, Oi Polloi, In Evil Hour and Steve Ignorant

Punks In Pubs Podcast

This episode was recorded via Zoom on behalf of Punk Ethics to support their campaign 'Punks Against Sweatshops'.

Punks in Pubs was asked to present the Q&A with a panel that featured...

Propagandhi's Jord

Petrol Girls' vocalist Ren

The great Deek of Oi Polloi

Janey who is the vocalist of the 'punk witches' Dream Nails

One half of In Evil Hour, Al & Gareth

And lastly the punk legend, Steve Ignorant

We came together to discuss the taboo subject matter of 'where do bands source their merch?'

You can expect chat on; bands confronting other bands, why we should all pay a little more for a T-shirt, how we can all do our bit to support workers' rights and we ask the question if anyone can live an ethical life?

We also touch on the impact of COVID-19 on the music and garment industries as well as ask why this punk panel was an all-white one?
