While Folkpunk Dad is away on tour & unable to be in the studio, we're airing an older interview Pepe gave 1 week before he went to prison in 2019. Pepe talks about originally facing 10 to life, the work he did to keep his relationship(s) intact, preparing for release before he was even sentenced, being in relationship while one partner is incarcerated, having a morning routine & working out, & how it's usually not easy to do the work that life asks of you but, it's worth it. This is an inspirational interview that can help you see there is a way through even the toughest of times.
