It is an honour to be back at it this week with our friends from Crush City, Dizne and Odie for the 141st instalment of Beers, Beats & The Biz. Old mates and long time supporters of the BBATB podcast, Odz and Diz have been involved in graffiti in Brisbane (and Australia) since it’s near inception and are the proprietors of Brisbane’s home of aerosol art, Crush City. With decades in the game between them, we get into the nitty gritty of graffiti in QLD and talk everything from artwork and T-shirt designs, the influence of Pubes and Dorps, DIE family, their individual history and accomplishments and what it is to run retail graffiti in Brisbane. Thank you always to Odz and Diz for the years of service, commitment and the ongoing support of Beers, Beats & The Biz.
