Navigating Chaos: Stories from the Mosh Pit An important milestone for the podcast, and this episode of Cult and Culture is with an equally as important guest: Sam McPheeters of bands Born Against, Men's Recovery Project, Wrangler Brutes, as well as writer, illustrator, designer, and former record label owner of Vermiform. Here, Sam talks about how making people happy with his stage antics means he's failed, recounts hiding in an attic for two days from Nazi skinheads, and discusses how being in the bands he has continues to open doors to journalistic opportunities today. #SamMcPheeters #cultandculturepodcast, #bornagainst, #mensrecoveryproject, #vermiform, #WranglerBrutes, #ruinousmedia, #justinpearson, #locusts, #3oneGrecords, #MoshPitStories, #ConcertCulture, #LiveShows, #RockAndRoll,
