#191 - Chat Pile (Stin)
Episode 42
Tuesday, 14 January, 2025
It’s taken me a little while to dive back into some of the interviews I did last year, but today we’re releasing something I’m really proud of — our interview with Chat Pile. There were times over the past few months when I seriously considered walking away from this project. I was burnt out, and setting up interviews felt like a chore. But in the end, I realized this project is too important to me to let go. I’ve made lifelong friends in Rosie and Tate, who’ve dedicated countless hours to making sure it continues. I often think back to my younger self, feeling lost and unsure of where my life was headed. Then I found the punk community — and it gave me purpose. For the first time in a long time, I was excited about something: the shows I attended, the people I met, and the sense of belonging. Starting this podcast in the first month of the pandemic allowed me to connect with bands I’d been listening to for years. Even though there were times when I didn’t make the best decisions, one thing I’m sure of is that this project is something I’m proud of. This year, I’m focusing on quality over quantity. There’ll be fewer interviews, but I’m going to make sure each one is something I’m truly excited about. I’ll be putting in more effort with follow-ups, audio, and graphics because the people who give me their time deserve nothing less. Thank you to everyone who listens. We’ve got big things ahead, and I hope we can continue putting out content we’re proud of. WE’RE BACK!
