Jennifer Finch & Fat Mike — Live from the Punk Rock Museum (Punk Scholars Podcast)

Editor's Note (July 2026)

Today we learned of the passing of Jennifer Finch.


Rather than simply share the news, I wanted to make this conversation available again. Recorded live at the Punk Rock Museum during the 2025 Punk Scholars Network US conference, it captures Jennifer exactly as I remember her: generous, thoughtful, funny, and deeply curious. Throughout our conversation, she challenged assumptions, connected punk to larger social questions, and reminded us that museums, archives, and community spaces are places where we imagine different futures together.


I'm grateful to have shared this conversation with her, and I hope others will enjoy hearing her voice and ideas again.


—Jessica Schwartz
