This week’s guest dreamed of having a bar where his favorite bands could play, and he made it happen beyond anyone’s expectations. Saint Vitus in Greenpoint, Brooklyn is not only a popular neighborhood bar, it hosts bands that no other club their size would ever manage to land. In our interview, we talk about Arty's teen years as a metalhead on Long Island, seeing the world in iconic hardcore bands like Mind Over Matter, and what led him to become the proprietor of multiple venues in NYC. We’re ending this series on a high note, so enjoy this episode, and maybe we’ll see you again in the future. Thanks to all of our listeners for a great run.

Guest Steve Karp helps us get to the bottom of BIM (Business Information Modeling), and what exactly he does in the construction process. In addition to BIM, we talk about art and illustration, the laws and legality of tattooing in CT and NYC, interning at Marvel Comics and a whole lot more. Steve’s hilarious takes on the hardcore scene, his time in Yuppicide and making ends meet as a ‘professional’ without resorting to violence are priceless. Check it out!

You may know this week’s guest from his band, Hell No, but even if you aren’t a hardcore punk rock fan, you may know him from his legendary video store Reel Life Video, which existed on Bedford Avenue in Williamsburg well before the boutiques and luxury apartments. John later went on to co-found Nitehawk Cinema, where he still works as director of programming and acquisitions. In our conversation we dork out about music, movies and dive into the intricacies of making his dream of a movie theater that serves high-quality food and drinks a reality. It’s more complicated than you think, but John’s approach and attitude helped make for one of the coolest theaters in the world. Check it out!
