    Jun 2 2025
    My guest this episode are Metzli and Lydia. Both Metzli and Lydia are returning guests of the show, so it was a lot of fun to have them on again, seven years later! Our discussion touched on the different aspects of gentrification, Metzli's own experience as a young person, the back yard punk scene, we defined what a Xicano Hipster is aka a Xipster, and hopefully made some people uncomfortable along the way.

    You can listen to Lydia and Metzli's first interview by searching for episode five of the show, but you you can also listen to the interview here.
