     When The Sawtooth Grin played ZBR Fest 2023 it was fucking magical. Getting to hang out with the members before the set, watching Jon Karel stupify the Heavenly Blue members, and having the band just fucking kill it live was an experience I will never forget. I had done a podcast with Rich before the fest and was keen to interview more members of the band, so when I got to meet guitar mastermind Jay Springman I quickly hatched a plot to have this here podcast. This episode is very awesome, hella eye-opening, and baringly truthful. Some things discussed in this 125th podcast: Hammertime, Pauley Shore, Nirvana deep dive, Bach and transforming art, early Jon Karel and Jay the Vocalist, small minds and short hair, the amazing power of The Dillinger Escape Plan, overcoming addiction, gettin' fucked by crowd metronomes, discovering your own musical literacy, Mathcore Index Fest, Sawtooth Grin's inhouse plan aka the future of the 'Jabberwocky' demos, etc. Bands played in this podcast: Death By StereoThe Dillinger Escape PlanNicole DollangangerGoregutsHilary Hahn plays J.S. Bach, and Thoughtcrimes. Listen to podcast #125 which is available to stream and/or download for free via this link.
