On Flex Your Head episode 18, host Jason Schreurs is joined once again by Drue Swalwell, this time to talk about Fugazi's latest (final?) album, The Argument. Is this the pinnacle of Fugazi's signature sound, the grand opus of all of the band's grand opuses? We try to find an answer to the eternal question: how and why is The Argument so utterly amazing?

About this podcast:
Flex Your Head is a spinoff of the Scream Therapy podcast where host Jason Schreurs welcomes a guest each episode to discuss a classic punk album.

The main Scream Therapy podcast explores the link between punk rock and mental health. My guests are members of the underground music scene who are living with mental health challenges, like myself.

THE SCREAM THERAPY BOOK is now available! Scream Therapy: A Punk Journey through Mental Health is a memoir-plus that has been heralded by New York Times best-selling authors. Like the podcast, it links the community-minded punk rock scene with the mental wellness of the punks who belong to it.
