146. LIFERS - Jess Margera

The LIFERS Podcast

Bored teenagers start bands. That’s about as ambitious as they usually get. But Jess Margera and his buddies in West Chester didn’t just decide to start a band — they started a media empire. CKY (the band) went hand in hand with “CKY” the video series — a bestselling string of pre-viral DVDs (and VHSs) that featured skateboarding, proto-Jackass pranks, and music from Margera’s band. Juvenile delinquent entrepreneurialism at its finest. These days, Jess spends his off-time from CKY with an impressive roster of extra-curricular bands and recording projects that include The Company Band, Viking Skull, and Sovereign Eagle. The dude is inexhaustible. PLUS!: In honor of Black Friday, we pick the best songs with “black” in the title. And oh, yeah — we’ve added a second LIFERS LIVE! show at Gman on January 1st.
