  1. Zooki (Ex-Regrets)

    Zooki (Ex-Regrets)

    This week on The Austin Young Show, I sit down with Jennifer “Zooki” Sturges of Ex Regrets for an episode packed with passion, purpose, and new beginnings. We talk about the roots of Ex Regrets and how Zooki’s riot grrrl influences along with her work with queer, trans, and femme communities in North Texas have shaped the band’s sound and message. What’s coming up: Riot Girl Fest 2025 Zooki announces that Riot Girl Fest 2025 will be Saturday, October 4, 2025 at Growl Records in Arlington, Texas. The fest continues its mission of femme and queer empowerment, supporting several nonprofits and giving space to artists who demand to be heard. A world exclusive: The new zine Riot Girl Manifesto We get the first look at Zooki’s next big project, a brand new twelve page zine called Riot Girl Manifesto. It will debut in September in both print and online, with the intention of becoming a quarterly. She also reads the manifesto live in the episode, unpacking what it means, who it is for, and why it matters. Austin’s new segment: Lyrics as Shakespeare Monologue Austin debuts a brand new recurring segment where he reads band lyrics as though they were a dramatic Shakespearean monologue. Expect poetic pauses, iambic rhythm, and extra gravitas you did not know you needed. The first pick is an Ex Regrets track Burqini Kill that lands somewhere between howl and whisper.

    AC’s Exit, Flip Pauses, and Deep Ellum Gets Artsy

    On this episode of The Austin Young Show, Austin and co-host Veronica Young bring you updates from both the art world and the music scene, plus some major announcements. Veronica shares the story behind her latest mixed-media piece, which is featured in the “Divine Timing” group exhibition opening Thursday, July 24 from 6 to 9 PM at Arc Gallery, located at 2602 Main Street, Deep Ellum, Dallas, TX 75226. She also previews her upcoming poetry reading at Poet Books on Friday, July 25, right down the street. Then, the conversation turns to the surprise announcement that AC, drummer for Further North, is leaving the band to pursue his country project full-time. Also, Flip and The Combined Effort are now on an undetermined length hiatus. Austin and Veronica reflect on what this could mean for the bands, their friends involved, and the local scene. They also recap Sweat Fest TX, highlighting the raw energy, rain-soaked chaos, and everything they loved (and survived) during the event. Finally, there's a shift coming to the podcast—Veronica is turning her own show into a recurring segment on The Austin Young Show.    Follow The Austin Young Show: www.austinyoungshow.com Music By: Toxic Madness - I'm Hardcore Cure For Paranoia - The Art Show Tomorrow Fades Away- All my Fault Further North - Echos Dezi 5 - Paint The Town Flip and the Combined Effort - This Could Have Been an Email The Weigh Down - Marilyn American Shit Storm - Cult Die Wurst - Cartoons *DISCLAIMER: I hereby declare that I do not own the rights to this music/song.
