My guest this week is the artist Jeremy Dean AKA Dean’s Nuts.
Jeremy and I discuss how growing up with punk music and skateboarding influences his work, designing merch for musicians from the Dead & Company to the Rolling Stones and Elton John, and how he went from bootlegging t-shirts to becoming the undeniable GOAT of merch.
Together we discover the wonders of Black Flag!
