LOS ANGELES, CA – The 1980s was a time when punk rock music was on the rise with bands like the Germs, X, and the Bags. And then there was Black Flag.

This quintessentially anti-authoritarian band formed in Hermosa Beach in 1976. Five years later, a 20-year-old fan named Henry Rollins would become the band’s lead singer.

Alex Cohen sits down with Rollins to discuss his music and acting career, but also his activist roots.

His new special “Keep Talking, Pal,” which is a creation molded from more than three decades of doing spoken word performances, is now out on ITunes, Google Play, and Amazon.
