1.) A feeling of dread or hopelessness that your current situation in the blue collar world is going no where fast. Coped with by sarcasm and self comedy to throw a positive spin on your situation. That feeling you get on Sunday morning knowing you have to go somewhere you don’t want to the next day.
2.) Followed quickly by a rush of Angst that pushes you to want more in life and find your purpose.
3.) A moment of complete and total clarity on what that path looks like.
4.) The feeling that fuels real change in someone’s life, and pushes them forward to learn more and be better.
5.) A badass Podcast where people from all over the Blue Collar world can share their experiences, to help somebody somewhere direct all that Blue Collar Angst into fuel and direction to get where they want to be.
6.) A name that started as an idea for a band name between two friends at work filled with Blue Collar Angst who played NOFX albums on repeat to get through the long days.
