Punknews.org happy to present new episodes of 100 Words or Less, host Ray Harkins' successor to the First World Problems podcast. 100 Words delves deeply into what makes creators of independent culture tick. Each episode of the show will focus on an in depth conversation with a particular artist that strays away from many of the typical interview questions and tries to get up close and personal.

On the latest two episodes Ray talks to Tom Searle from Architects:

Not only are these dudes my first international guests, but some of the only twins I know playing music in the same band together. Dan & Tom Searle from Architects (in the UK) stayed up late one night to discuss gossip oriented press, their humble beginnings and preconceived notions .

…as well as Chris Hansen from No Sleep Records:

I had been looking forward to sitting down with Chris Hansen, the owner of No Sleep Records, for awhile as he is one of my close friends. He really opened about many things such as his social anxiety, his fathers passing and how No Sleep Records was born. It was a great chat and I hope you enjoy.
