This is the first of two Punknews Podcast episodes coming to you this week, this one recorded over the Easter break. Staff writers Chris Barrett and Ricky Frankel join editor John Gentile to discuss the latest Fest additions, the new Menzingers album, and the more on the story emerging around ex-New Found Glory member steve Klein. The show also features a chat with Toby Morrell of Emery about religion, punk rock and the conflicts therein. For good measure, we also play "The Crucifixion is Now" by the Dwarves.
