Lisa, tell them about our new show. We have a new podcast. It's called Don't Lie to Me. I'm Lexi Iwanu. We're two best friends, 22 years apart, but so close at heart. And I'm Lisa DiGiulio, the old one, which means we have wildly different references, occasionally different opinions. And at this point in my 50s, I've lived it all. Now in my 30s, being the founder of New Shoes, good taste is my business. Listen on the iHeartRadio app, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts.

Hey Discos, need a little more Disgraceland in your life? Just a touch to get you through? Yeah, me too. This is the podcast that comes after the podcast. Welcome to Disgraceland, the after party.
Jake Brennan 2:13
Welcome to the Disgraceland bonus episode, a little thing we like to call the after party. This is the show after the show, the party after the party, the bridge to get you from one full episode of Disgraceland to the other, the backyard to dig into the dirt, our mission to uncover the truth, to confront the myth, to reclaim the story. On this bonus episode, I give you my thoughts on my visit to the Punk Rock Museum in Las Vegas, some home recording recommendations, your takes on Bobby Fuller's death with your emails, comments, DMs, voicemails, texts, and as always, a whole lot of Rosie. This is the podcast for the musically obsessed, the outsiders, the independent thinkers who know that the best history is the history that gets buried.

Disgraceland is where I tell the stories you'll end up telling someone else. All right, discos, let's get into it.

So no one ever called Bobby Fuller punk rock because he existed before punk rock, though one of the greatest punk rock bands of all time further popularized his song, I Fought the Law. I'm talking about The Clash, of course. Bobby Fuller was not punk. Again, he was from the early to mid 1960s, but he was very punk rock in the way that he created his music. He was one of the first DIY artists at a time when that wasn't a thing at all. He created a real home studio in his parents' modest suburban home. So a lot of punk rock exists in Bobby Fuller. And I was thinking of Bobby Fuller this past weekend when I visited the Punk Rock Museum in Las Vegas. When I was there, I had an experience that I didn't think I would have.

I became strangely emotional, like legit trying not to cry emotional from being there. Laura Jane Grace from Against Me was our tour guide, and she was fantastic. She said this thing that really crystallized the feeling I was having while on that tour. She said that punk rock is about broken people, broken kids coming together and being put back together again by punk rock. It's so true. It really stuck with me. It doesn't matter if we're talking about punk rock kids from the New York scene, the LA scene, the Boston hardcore scene, the Bay Area, whatever. We were all misfits. And most of us were latchkey kids. It didn't matter where we came from, our race, our sexuality, our gender, how much money our parents did or didn't have.

When we went to those all ages shows, we were finally part of a community. We finally identified as something other than the fuck-ups that we were told that we were.
