Disinfo Podcast interview with Henry Rollins

Matt Staggs, the host of the Disinfo podcast, says

I interviewed legendary punk icon, world traveler, and lecturer Henry Rollins, Rollins. He is intensely focused on creating a better world and a better America, and much of the conversation is devoted to that, but we also get into the overlap between his music career and his work as a humanitarian, his acting career and a few hilarious stories from the Black Flag days.

The DisinfoCast with Matt Staggs: Episode 18: Henry Rollins

• [Keith Tyler]

  Henry Rollins’ “better world” does not have electronic music in it, and I for one simply can’t have that.

  • [wysinwyg]

     Yeah, for a dude whose career was predicated on screaming unintelligibly and inaudibly into a microphone in front of a bunch of garage musicians, he’s awfully down on DJs for “not having any talent.”  I’d love to see Henry Rollins try to play Drunk Trumpet and then say Kid Koala doesn’t have any talent.

    I still think Rollins is pretty fuckin’ cool, though. 

    • [Al Billings]

       Not having listened to this yet, I assume the complaint is the normal musician complaint of “musicians actually know how to play music, not just play and rearrange someone else’s music.”

• [Dave X]

  In a more perfect world, the Disinfo podcast would be Disney-themed, with Rollins discussing Blag Flag’s integral role in designing Spaceship Earth.

  • [Dr_Wadd]

    I was about to post that I first read the headline as “Disney Podcast” for a very brief WTF moment

• [Dave X]

  Keith– What?

• [Ian Wood]

  I want to see Henry Rollins do a show with Prince Poppycock.

• [Nicolas Peterson]
