Hosted by Chris Wrenn, The B9 Podcast brings artists, friends, and voices from the hardcore community into the Bridge Nine Records warehouse for honest, laid back conversations about hardcore, DIY culture, touring, records, creativity, and everything in between. Recorded inside the Bridge Nine warehouse, each episode feels less like an interview and more like hanging out before or after a show, getting to know the people behind the bands, hearing stories from the road, and talking about what keeps hardcore alive.© 2026 Bridge Nine Records

    Pat Flynn On Hardcore Community, Creativity, and Staying Young
    May 22 2026

    Chris B9 is joined by Pat Flynn (Have Heart, Fiddlehead, How Much Art) to talk about his prolific involvement in the hardcore scene, from his time with Have Heart to his current work with Fiddlehead and various "science projects" like Clear and Sweet Jesus. He reflects on the creative drive that keeps him starting new bands, emphasizing that his goal is collaboration and artistic expression rather than mainstream fame.

    Flynn also explores:
    The Symbiosis of Career and Music: How his long-term career as a teacher provides a balanced schedule for touring and makes performing feel more special.

    Hardcore Subculture Dynamics: The importance of a thriving youth population alongside "elders" who provide history and guidance to keep the scene healthy.

    Defining Success: Why hardcore continues to challenge mainstream ideas of celebrity by prioritizing organic community, accessibility, and the truest forms of self-expression.
