Episode description

Pete Parada is a world-renowned drummer best known for his work with punk rock band 'The Offspring', who he played with from 2007 to 2021. He has also worked with other prominent acts like 'Face to Face' and 'Saves the Day'. He is currently a member of the band 'The Defiant'.

Pete discusses his early life, music career, and the controversy surrounding his departure from 'The Offspring' due to his inability to get vaccinated against Covid-19 because of Guillain-Barré syndrome. Pete and Zuby also explore the relationship between art, creativity, and technology, as well as materialism, the over-medicalisation epidemic, and ideological extremes.
