Ep. 7: Diane Saw the Sex Pistols and You Didn't (With Diane Chadwick-Jones)

There's no better title than to make sure we've got Diane's name in it. Why? If you have to ask, go find out, then listen to the episode. There's a punk band called FEAR. Diane hasn't seen them. Anyway, fear of something different is sort of the topic for this episode.

We're posting a little early because the CHOL conference is happening this week, and we'll be live there, too.

Back to the important stuff: DCJ is kind of a big deal. Even bigger than Ron, and that's saying something. Diane shames us all by starting out with stories of going to Sex Pistol shows and pogo-ing until she could barely walk. Fucking legend.

Anyway, we talk about why safety professionals—and organizations, too—are afraid to try new things in safety. There's a lot that goes into it, and the consensus is that it's not about dumb people. Why can't we move beyond so many ideas we know aren't working the way we hoped?

So, how do we get past that fear and anxiety? Well, that's what podcasts are for, dude. Hit play and figure it out.

DISCLAIMER: You probably shouldn't take anything in this podcast too seriously. Punk Rock Safety is for entertainment only. It's definitely not a replacement for professional or legal advice, and the fair amount of piss-taking, shithousery, and general ridiculousness ought to clue you into the fact that no one - and no organization - is endorsing (or un-endorsing, if that's a thing) any products, ideas, or other things. Except NOFX. We definitely endorse them.

Oh, and give your money to Punk Rock Saves Lives. They're a rad organization that works in mental health, addiction, and human rights. And they're awesome people who can use your help to keep on kicking ass at what they do.
