THE FBI ARE MUGS; I LIKE THE FUGS (...AND CRASS) [Barely Human Podcast Episode 01]
Channel: Max Easton
Date: 29/06/2020

In this first episode of Barely Human, we investigate two underground bands who managed to attract the eye of Presidents, Prime Ministers, the FBI and MI6. We look at '60s counter-cultural actors The Fugs, who were present at the famed Flower Power protests of 1967 and were described by J. Edgar Hoover as "repulsive to right-thinking people." Then we turn to '80s anarcho-punk agitators Crass, who managed to fool both the CIA and MI6 into believing they were Soviet spies.
