I'VE KNOWN YOU TOO LONG
40 episodes - English - Latest episode: over 2 years ago - ★★★★★ - 38 ratingsDavid Larson is a screenwriter from the Seattle area who ran an independent record label called EXCURSION for many years. Over the course of the last three decades, Dave has formed friendships with a large number of people who have made an artistic impact, mostly in the world of Punk Rock and Hardcore music. Many of these people have gone on to greater and more varied adventures in the worlds of art, film, music, politics, and activism. In this podcast, Dave uses the timeline of their first meeting to explore back and forth through their histories to try and gain a better understanding of how they came to be the people they are today.
They say history is written by the conquerers, and while none of these campaigns are complete yet, it is time to get some of these tales nailed down before they are lost to time and age.

August 05, 2019 15:32 - 2 hours - 161 MBIt’s not often these boys are all in the same place, so when you get the call they want to do a full-band version of the podcast, you’ve got to roll with it despite the limitations of your recording equipment.

027: Mark Holcomb
May 25, 2017 20:23 - 2 hours - 164 MBDave tried unsuccessfully to get Mark on the show for months. When it finally happened they pretty much just talked about He-Man toys and boomerangs.

February 24, 2016 23:06 - 1 hour - 70.4 MBFor a mostly unplanned 1st year celebration of Nobodysnose.com, Greg Bennick drops in on Dave to discuss his recent hand injury and the kinds of new perspectives a thing like that will bring.

023: Carrie Whitney
December 21, 2015 19:06 - 2 hours - 141 MBCarrie appeared out of nowhere in the NW Hardcore scene in mid-1994.

006: Ron Guardipee
March 20, 2015 07:29 - 2 hours - 89.9 MBIt can be argued that Ron is the guy who did most of the heavy lifting in the creation of the Pacific NW Hardcore scene.
