Napalm Nanny and The Shack

Napalm and Friends:Volts

I know I say this about every guest (because I am honored and blown away by the guests in each episode), but we're lucky I consensually cornered my old friend for this episode of Napalm and Friends, Anthony Huesca. I am lucky we crossed paths at sixteen and have had the opportunity to see you grow from a hoodlum running the streets of South East Los Angeles with me to traveling the world in the Air Force. Tune in and learn how he went from creating bombs (artistic graffiti) to murals in most bases he has been stationed at along with a playlist he curated. 

Find some of his work over on instagram under Itxli

Prince of Puke

As promised, here is another episode on my lord and savior, John Waters. Learn a little about his time in prison and his sentiments towards the incarcerated class. As a bonus, because I like y'all so much, here's a playlist that is worthy of a John Waters film.

Napalm and Friends: La Chef

First and foremost, I'd like to apologize for my audio (but I think I have it figured out for the next one!) Other than that, I am grateful for the kind and brilliant Chef Lety for being our guest on this episode. Tune in for the playlist that she and the universe created along with some insight about the secret ingredient in her recipes and the healing power of her dishes. I also can't emphasize this enough, go follow her on Instagram, Bulletmck, and drool over the meals she posts and keep up with the culinary culture in San Diego (and Mujeres Brew House)

RoknRol

Besides blessing me with a fashion sense, my mama gave me the gift of showing me the golden tunes of Mexico in the 1960's. The budding rebellion of the youth led to the undeniably contagious music that matched the wild and raunchy sentiments, this is where Los Rockin Devils stepped in as pioneers. Learn a little on the band while dancing away in your kitchen...or studio...or wherever you are.

Motown

How have I not delved into Motown?? It is such an iconic moment in music history and continues to be a corner stone of music. Tune in to this weeks episode that will make you wiggle your hips and give you some sweet history on the Motown label.

Pope of Filth

One mans trash is another mans cult film. We love all things trashy here at The Shack and we adore the Pope of Filth, John Waters. There is so much to the man's life and inspiration for his work, this episode is just a glimpse at his fascination with larger than life hair (which, we're now debating on creating a mini series dedicated to him). While you're learning a little something about John Waters enjoy the playlist that would be perfect for his films

Napalm and Friends: Doctor Zoddity and Gothka

We have been honored with the presence of these ghoulish guests, Doctor Zoddity and Gothka (I am so sorry I mispronounced your name in the episode, Gothka, please don't haunt my dreams), incredibly haunting hosts spinning the most spine tingling tunes for you. They share their origins and their methods to the madness at their castle and laboratory along with picking out this episodes playlist.

Hog (title has to be longer than five characters, this enough for ya?!)

Dumb title requirements, grinds my gears, what if I care for minimalistic/simplicity!?
Much like how cars can be reduced to two wheels and stripped of safety, thus creating the motorcycle (and the insane riders atop them who chase adrenaline on the road), here's this weeks episode on early pioneers of the two wheeled beasts. The lover of Indian motorcycle Pancho Villa who used them in battle and the legendary African American rider Bessie Stringfield who rode cross country despite Jim Crow. Not enough for ya? (it never is) there's a pretty sweet playlist to go along with it.
